At Booking.com, we make it easier for everyone to experience the world. We began by taking hotel bookings online over 20 years ago and we've been shaping the travel industry ever since. Today, we're building a platform that connects every part of a trip – from a great place to stay to getting there, getting around, seeing the sights and sampling local life. It all started with one man and a rather good idea. Dutch entrepreneur Geert-Jan Bruinsma realized how useful it would be to connect hotels and guests. From a small office in Amsterdam, he built a website called Bookings.nl. This little startup grew steadily in its first few years. The formula for success was pretty simple: working hard to get it right for our customers. By ****, we were well on our way to becoming the market leader for European bookers. This growth did not go unnoticed by other large players in the travel sphere. The Priceline Group (now Booking Holdings) acquired Bookings.nl in **** to give us the Booking.com we know today. Despite evolving from a small startup to a global player, little has changed about our company culture. We're open, inclusive and always ready to overcome any challenge. We might be over 20 years old, but we're just getting started.
