Besides being the environmentally friendly alternative to printed newspapers, Hotel PressDisplay.com enhances the newspaper experience for readers by offering a familiar look and feel, easy-to-use navigation tools, powerful keyword searching, article sharing through email and blogs, translation into up to 12 languages, audio capabilities, and integration with social media such as Facebook, Digg and Del.icio.us.

“Hotel PressDisplay.com enables hoteliers to reduce the cost and wastage of locally delivered newspapers while providing guests with a superior newspaper reading experience,” said Richard Miller, NewspaperDirect’s vice president, sales and marketing. “Guests can read any newspaper they want on their laptops and can even download them to read while in transit to their next destination. Hotel PressDisplay.com is the ‘green’ newspaper solution for hotels that cater to the tech-savvy mobile professional.”

Hotel PressDisplay.com is available to both hotels and hotel Internet service providers. Subscription packages offer simultaneous user licenses that enable multiple guests to share the service 24 hours a day.
