Drury Hotels Signs Five-year CRS Renewal with Pegasus Solutions

Drury Hotels has signed a five-year central reservation system (CRS) renewal with Pegasus Solutions, which will also includes the migration of the chain's 130 hotels in 20 U.S. states to Pegasus' award-winning next generation CRS, RezView NG. Drury's brands include Drury Inn & Suites, Drury Inn, Drury Plaza Hotel, Drury Suites, Pear Tree Inn by Drury, as well as other hotels in the mid-price hotel segment.

A Pegasus CRS customer since 1999, Drury Hotels has consistently reaped the benefits of RezView's industry-leading uptimes and response times. With this renewal, which extends the relationship through 2015, Drury will also become the largest family-owned chain to implement Pegasus' next generation CRS, RezView NG.

"When we last renewed with Pegasus, we cited consistency of service and RezView's reliability as key considerations," says Eric Strand, vice president of sales and marketing for Drury Hotels. "Our decision to continue our decade-plus relationship with Pegasus after a thorough review of other CRS providers remains founded in these factors, as well as the delivery of Pegasus' RezView NG CRS, which will allow us to enhance our revenue management practice and support our continued growth. As a family built, owned and operated chain, our first commitment is to our guests and our brand, a principle that Pegasus understands and supports through its solutions."

RezView NG's flexible design allows hotels to operate and adapt their business in the manner in which they choose, not based upon the constraints of the system. This flexibility includes support for a wide variety of revenue management strategies, the ability to sell and manage non-room inventory, high-level customization, real-time reporting, close integration with property management systems and automated distribution content management.Õ
