| The internet has revolutionised many
aspects of life over the past few years and has dramatically affected
the way in which hotel rooms are found and booked. Recent research indicates
that around 50% of hotel and guest house bookings result from internet
searches and some small independent hotels report over 80% of their bookings
coming via the Internet.
In this rapidly developing world, it is no longer enough just to
advertise on the internet. Increasingly, customers expect to be able to
check room availability and make a confirmed reservation, all online.
This is evidenced by TravelClick's recent report of
rapid growth in online reservations.
Hotels Connected provides a simple, cost effective way for any hotel
to provide automatic online room availability and confirmed reservations
via the internet - worldwide and 24 hours a day. You can link
directly to this service from any web site which has your hotel listed.
With Hotels Connected, independent hotels, guest houses or B&Bs of
any size can offer the same online reservation facilities that the
major hotel chains provide. All you need is computer with an internet
connection.
By providing online internet room availability and reservations,
you can provide a better customer service and clinch room sales
that you might otherwise lose to your competitors!
