Business travelers are loyal dogs

According to Yahoo, a survey recently found that business travelers are pretty loyal dogs when it comes to their hotel choices:

    According to a recent TripAdvisor(TM) survey of more than 2,100 travelers from around the world, 68 percent of travelers regularly stay at the same hotel chain when on business trips. Marriott was selected as the top hotel choice when traveling for work. Thirty-four percent of respondents plan to take one to three business trips this year, and nearly ten percent will take ten or more trips for work this year.

Something to think about when picking out your next hotel, anyway. There’s more good stuff from the survey—check it out.
