Hotels.com celebrated its 25th birthday with a travel industry and customer party at STUDIO Sydney Tower, hosted by The Bachelor star Tim Robards.

Hotels.com began life in the same year as the internet was born, 1991, and is today owned by the Expedia group.

“Hotels.com couldn’t have reached this important milestone without the support of our industry partners and loyal customers,” Hotels.com regional director Katherine Cole said.
