Company
In a 3 September 2024 blog post, Bubbl described a shared group-travel platform connecting travellers who want to share accommodation and experiences. The post says travellers and trip leaders can view and track trip information and communicate in one view. This does not establish present trip availability, safety, security, savings, or earnings.
Shared rooms and beds
Bubbl brings travelers together around shared accommodation, with people choosing to share a room or a bed in one place. The format is built for group oriented experiences, so a trip can include festivals, conferences or gatherings where people want company. Travelers join an offer that a trip organizer has set up, then meet others who are heading to the same place. Solo travelers often find the setting easy, since the group offers a ready circle of new friends. The concept blends a place to sleep with a chance to connect.
A young concept in social travel
The business is headquartered in the United States, in San Francisco. It presents itself as a social travel company, which puts the emphasis on people and shared time rather than on standard hotel bookings. Its focus on matching travelers with groups of like minded people sets it apart from traditional places to stay. The concept is still young, so its offer is better seen as a shared trip model than as a wide network of properties.
Our full take
Co-stay accommodation platform for events, helping guests find housing at 200+ events worldwide.
