A few months on from celebrating its first birthday, data-driven hotel price comparison engine DealAngel has been bought by Russian OTA OneTwoTrip.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
OneTwoTrip is itself just over two years old and is backed by Atomico and Phenomen Ventures, taking in so far a hefty $25 million in funding.
DealAngel will continue to be based in the US, with CEO Roman Peskin running operations from Los Angeles. Fellow co-founders Bob Rogers and Oleg Zaidiner will also be moving to the OneTwoTrip team.
To date, DealAngel has a modest sum in $1.4 million, mostly from Foresight Ventures (alongside Bright Capital) in the shape of a $750,000 round, as well as additional investment from TechStars Boulder and some early seed money.
The move is being signalled as OneTwoTrip's move into the hotel arena, hopefully further fuelling what Peskin claims is "probably the fastest growing travel company in the recent history of the internet".
The DealAngel service was created on the back of technology Peskin and Rogers originally developed to help hotels with hotel pricing and revenue management, showing users the optimum time to buy and best hotel available in cities around the world.
OneTwoTrip CEO Peter Kutis says:

"The depth of industry experience and vision of the DealAngel team are what really convinced us.
"We are very much looking forward to getting the DealAngel team onboard and bringing our hotel product to the next level."
The OTA has started spreading its wings further in recent months following its launch in Germany in May.
