I think that the design of Booking.com is fairly intuitive … especially considering the sheer volume of features and bookings available here. It cannot be an easy task to translate millions of listings and several booking types into a seamless and user-friendly site design. Nevertheless, Booking.com has managed to do just that. As soon as I land on the home page, I know how to navigate the site. That’s precisely what I look for in a site like this. I can either plug my desired location and dates of travel into a prominently featured quick search box right at the top of the page, allowing you to get right down to business (no need to waste time). Or I can scroll down a bit and browse by the most popular destinations, property type, popular vacation packages, home stays, or travel blog articles. As far as the actual browsing function is concerned, I think that, once again, Booking.com does a pretty good job. The site offers a very familiar layout, allowing you to tweak your input info (destination, dates, guests, etc.) and filtering options in a box on the left-hand side of the page, with your search results spanning the right-hand side. There are a plethora of options to filter booking results, plus about 9 different ways to organize them. My only complaint, from a design perspective (and I know that I might be nitpicking here) is that I would have liked to have seen the search results section of the page be independent of the rest of the page. In other words, when I scroll through the results of hotels, I wish that the search box and quick filter options stayed in place. This would allow, I think, for slightly easier browsing and adjusting of search parameters. Other than that, though, this site is clearly designed by some of the best in the business.
