Washington, DC, February 03, 2012 –(PR.com)– The 2012 Best Hotels rankings recognize hotels with a record of high customer satisfaction and an exceptional reputation among published travel experts.

U.S. News established Best Hotels to identify the top properties across the country. To create the 2012 rankings, U.S. News evaluated the strength of accolades and ratings that elite hotels received from major travel publications, as well as travelers, to identify hotels that are loved by experts and consumers alike.

Philip Strnad, General Manager, commented, “We are very proud of our team for earning this prestigious recognition and placing our hotel among the very best hotels in the USA.” The Hilton President Kansas City is managed by San Antonio’s based Presidian Hotels Resorts. Mark Kucera, President COO, commented, “We are proud of the ongoing commitment our team demonstrates in maintaining the Hilton President as one of the Best Hotels to stay in the country.” “Our hotel is second to none in the Midwest to our guest.

Alexandria, VA, February 04, 2012 –(PR.com)– Across the next 12 months, Simmons intends to launch over 50 city specific blogs featuring articles submitted by participating “member” hotels. Blogs will be titled with easily searched for terms such as www.BestHotelsofWashingtonDC.com and www.TopHotelsofLondon.com, both of which have already been launched in beta form.

Simmons explains the idea by saying, “The breakthrough concept for me was to allow the hotels to tell their own story directly to the public, rather than having it filtered through the existing normal channels of online travel agencies. Several years ago, hoteliers were happy to rely on the agencies to service consumers looking for recommendations … but today, they have invested significant money in developing their own web sites and accordingly they are now looking for ways to drive traffic to those sites.”

To accommodate the demand for PR assistance in the social media universe, Simmons has developed what he calls a “family” of blogs promoting the best hotels around the world. SimmonsHotelGuides.com, the parent site, provides an index of upcoming cities that will be covered – as well as republishing the most popular articles from city sites around the world.

Kendall Gartlan, Managing Editor of the collection, says “We intend to drive significant traffic to our blogs by providing the ‘best’ answer for consumers searching for terms like ‘Best hotels in whatever city.’ Search engines recognize that a query like this deserves a site which offers a collection of properties, not just one hotel. The engines also reward frequently updated material and we intend to post original articles daily. We see this as truly a win/win scenario. The consumer receives articles describing many of the best hotels in a city, rather than just one – and the hoteliers are provided with
