Habbo Hotel (or Habbo) is a popular free social networking site like Club Penguin. Habbo's target demographic is skewed more towards a teenage audience rather than young children but it still implements many important safety features. Habbo Hotel receives over 10 million monthly unique visitors to its domain.

The gameplay of Habbo is very similar to that of Club Penguin. The Habbo Hotel game world is split into various hotel rooms that logged in Habbo users can access and in doing so chat with other users in that room.

There is also a variety of game options on Habbo Hotel which serve as an extra activity in the game world. Players are free to customise their character in anyway they want and can also design their own rooms. There is a paid currency in Habbo known as Habbo Coins but it is not required to access a majority of the game client, its main use being the purchase or premium in-game items.
