EDINBURGH 9th December: Ski Accommodation retailer PowderBeds.com, has launched a new online booking service that is making exclusive Swiss ski resorts more affordable and accessible.

Powderbeds.com now display live pricing and availability for over 80 Swiss ski hotels in 18 of Switzerland's best ski resorts including St Moritz, Klosters and Zermatt. They are proud to be the first specialist UK ski accommodation supplier to offer Swiss product in this way.

The Swiss hotels featured dynamically price their rooms which then feed instantly to Powderbeds.com thus providing the customer with up to the minute, accurate pricing information including the latest deals and special offers.

The system's ability to instantly find the best deals means that many Swiss resorts, once considered too pricey for many skiers and snow boarders, are now fully accessible and affordable.

For example, customers can now book a hotel in Klosters from £62 a night, and the iconic Zermatt is available from just £81 a night with its extensive ski area stretching into Italy. Similarly ski hotels in Saas-Fee, one of Europe's highest ski areas, are available from just £68 a night.

The service also delivers a more flexible booking experience, allowing customers to book short breaks, as well as the traditional Saturday to Saturday or week-long stay.

Powderbeds Business Development Manager Marcus Blunt comments: "As well as providing access to the best prices in our featured Swiss resorts, the new system provides our customers with a more flexible way to book. As well as traditional weekly stays from a Saturday or Sunday, we're opening up availability throughout the season to allow more flexible travel options. Our customers can now make the most of their time off and book ski holidays that fit their busy schedules."
