VibeAgent, the hotel search engine, has raised $3 million in Series A investment capital to support its goal of becoming the world’s leading hotel search engine. Investors participating in VibeAgent’s Series A round consist of a small group of successful executives in the software, travel, and private equity industries.

VibeAgent helps travelers find the perfect hotel at the best available price. The site searches over 30 leading travel and hotel sites to consolidate rates, availability, and hotel content on over 140,000 hotels, providing its users access to the largest hotel selection and best room rates available online.

Travelers can use VibeAgent’s real-time price, location, and category filters to determine which hotel best suits their needs, and then see consolidated room rates from all the searched sites. This saves travelers from having to visit multiple sites to find the right hotel at the best available rate.

VibeAgent allows registered users to post and share hotel reviews with their own network of friends and colleagues. Founded in 2006, VibeAgent is based in Charlottesville, Virginia, has also just launched the Hotelier Suite, which allows hotels to post or claim their hotel and manage their content directly on VibeAgent’s search engine.
