Google resumes hotel search in three EU countries
2024-12-13 11:41:15

Google parent company Alphabet has restored the ability to show hotels in search results in Germany, Estonia and Belgium, according to the Wall Street Journal.

This is the latest in a series of disputes between the U.S. tech giant and price comparison websites.

It comes after Google said several hotel groups were experiencing a significant drop in visitor traffic.

Google is required to comply under the EU's Digital Markets Act.

The act prohibits Google from favoring its own products and services, such as Google Shopping and hotels, over those of competitors through its search engine results.
