The Benefits
HotelHub allows travel management companies to grow their share of hotel volume strategically and more efficiently from a complex and fragmented supplier base. This yields higher returns for all as value is created for both customers and suppliers.
An end-to-end commercial value proposition
With large volumes of hotel bookings traditionally being made outside of the travel agency channel, the hotel expenditure potential with existing customers as well as with prospects is substantial. HotelHub allows you to build a strong hotel service value proposition for your customers. It is designed to be seamlessly integrated with your end-to-end one-stop-shop proposition and helps you win, retain, and build customer relationships by driving a greater share of their hotel expenditure through your agency.
Growing and managing your hotel volumes in turn supports stronger supplier relationships, and HotelHub does not conflict in any way with your hotel or distribution channel commercial models. Rather, HotelHub helps enhance the proposition for your customers and suppliers – a win-win strategy. In addition to being able to control the point of sale display and promote your, and your customers’, preferred suppliers, HotelHub allows you to manage the channels used to book hotels and drive down costs.
