Bypass the waiting lists and eat at the best restaurants in the world with OAD TRAVEL
- OAD Travel is the first integrated restaurant and hotel booking platform that guarantees access to the world's most in-demand tables.
- Launching initially with packages across Spain, OAD Travel allows guests to book luxury hotels alongside the most sought-after restaurants in the world including Disfrutar (Barcelona), Azurmendi (San Sebastian) and DiverXO (Madrid).
- OAD Travel is brought to you by the team behind Opinionated About Dining (OAD), who have integrated their regional OAD Guides and Top Restaurants Lists with the travel platform to provide gastro-tourists with concise and informative reviews of the best restaurants in Europe.
LONDON, Feb. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The first integrated restaurant and hotel booking platform, OAD Travel, has begun to offer packages in Spain's major culinary destinations - Barcelona, San Sebastian and Madrid - for trips commencing February 2024. Plans for packages in London, Paris and Copenhagen, among other popular dining destinations, are to be announced later this year.
Never before have the two linchpins of luxury holidays - hotels and restaurants - been combined. OAD Travel offers a seamless digital solution that simplifies travellers' gastronomic getaways by taking care of hard-to-secure table reservations whilst securing rooms at the most luxurious hotels.
By booking a package through the OAD Travel platform, guests pay the standard published rate for their hotel room and obtain reservations at their selected restaurants at no further cost. Restaurant bookings include a minimum spend for beverages plus a choice of tasting menus which are paid for in full on booking.
The influence of fine-dining awards such as Michelin, World's 50 Best Restaurants and our own OAD Top Restaurants rankings can make it exceedingly difficult for people to actually secure tables at these restaurants themselves. We not only take the headache out of getting bucket-list dining reservations, we also take care of accommodations at the finest hotels in town too…. and without adding mark-ups that would short-change either our guests or restaurant partners." Steve Plotnicki, founder of OAD Travel and Opinionated About Dining
