Or maybe because TripAdvisor actually brings measurable revenue to hotels, unlike Yelp. Other than some opentable integrations most restaurants don't immediately see how much value is Yelp bringing to them.

Do hotels have a way of attributing revenue to TripAdvisor?

you can make bookings through tripadvisor

I wonder what percentage of hotel bookings now come directly from TripAdvisor? Presumably this is limited to consumer bookings, rather than corporate travel. I've used TA often for research but never for booking.
