Hotelbeds says MaxiRoom also helps hoteliers to be more competitive, since it offers information about performance in comparison with local competitors and allows hoteliers to make decisions to improve their pricing in order to optimise productivity. Other features of MaxiRoom include: • Interactive calendar where hoteliers can make rate and room type changes • An intuitive content management system designed to easily update the quality of information, images and offers • A tool that allows to quickly and easily make massive changes in availability and price by product range or by room type. • Smart alerts that notify hotel partners about dates that have been left unavailable, incomplete descriptions or lack of images so they can improve their showcase on the platform • A promotions manager that allows hoteliers to launch their own offers directly any time and in a dynamic way Hotels that work with Hotelbeds have access to more than 60, 000 tour operators, airlines, point redemption programs, loyalty plans, and travel agents from more than 140 source markets.
Hotelbeds makes available a local domain to improve usability in China Hotelbeds has launched a China-based hotel extranet solution for hoteliers in China. China-based hoteliers now have access to a Chinese domain version of MaxiRoom, Hotelbeds' free hotel extranet launched in 2015. Chinese hoteliers will be able to access MaxiRoom via a local domain – – without facing any restrictions and in Chinese. Adam Krzciuk Kuna, head of supplier connectivity partnerships, Hotelbeds, commented: "Doing business in China requires a bespoke approach as their technology platforms are different. In the past we tried other non-domestic websites, but the performance of the platform was not up to the standard we wish our hotel partners to receive. "The domestic domain is created to improve usability and functionality, which is part of our commitment to offer hotels a segmented and ever stronger value proposition. MaxiRoom offers hoteliers greater autonomy by helping them find and manage their rates, availability, offers and content more easily. "
Adam Krzciuk Kuna, Head of Supplier Connectivity Partnerships, comments: "In recent years connectivity has become a key part of the business, and as a leading bedbank we are firmly convinced that connectivity is a vital part of the future of the tourism sector. That's the reason why we have worked on numerous developments and improvements like the ones we are announcing today. "We are the first distributer to offer a screen where hoteliers can check the availability and connectivity rates that have with us at every moment. That is a great milestone for hotels that work according to the supplier integration model, and with it Hotelbeds continues leading the way. Our hotel partners, both large global chains, such as Hilton, or independent hotels, who have relied on us and have been connected to our system, will benefit from having the information in a more transparent and updated way at any time. " MaxiRoom is the Hotelbeds free hotel extranet that was launched in 2015 and is designed to control and maximize the distribution of properties in a faster, smarter and easier way.
This improvement, together with all the functionalities offered by the tool, allows Hotelbeds to work hand-in-hand with hoteliers to have better and more competitive conditions for customers. Today more than 60, 000 out of the 170, 000 hoteliers who work with the bedbank have been connected to Hotelbeds through either technology platforms or direct integrations. The figure of 60, 000 has been doubled in the last three years, which reflects, once again, Hotelbeds' commitment to connectivity by becoming a crucial part of the business. Following the integration of Tourico Holidays and GTA in 2017, Hotelbeds focused part of its strategy on expanding the value proposition offered to its hotel partners. Hotelbeds is focused more than ever on supporting the distribution needs of hoteliers connected to its platform to sell its rooms to a more international client profile formed by a portfolio of more than 60, 000 travel intermediaries worldwide, including airlines, loyalty programs, travel agencies and tour operators.
