DALLAS, TX–(Marketwire – October 25, 2010) –  Motel 6 has unveiled its newly-designed mobile Web site, making it quick and simple for guests to find and book rooms at more than 1,000 locations in the United States and Canada using their mobile devices. Like www.motel6.com, the mobile Web site is sleek, stylish, and enhanced throughout by a modern splash of color to reflect many of Motel 6’s “Phoenix” design elements.

“We know our guests are often on-the-go and rely on their mobile devices to provide quick access to important information,” said Olivier Poirot, CEO for Accor North America, Motel 6 and Studio 6. “The design of our mobile Web site offers guests a simple and quick way to locate the right Motel 6 for their travel needs.”

Users will appreciate the user-friendly mobile Web site, which gives them easy access for logging into their My Motel 6 account, accessing their most recent stays and viewing future bookings. New navigation will take users easily to the most convenient Motel 6 for their needs, while allowing for easy online booking with just a few clicks.

The mobile site provides guests with the most pertinent details for their visit, including each location’s amenities and brand policies. Just like Motel 6’s guest rooms, the mobile Web site gives users everything they need and nothing they don’t. 

Guests can now log into motel6.com now to easily book a room on their mobile devices.
