Extended Stay America Hotels Launches WORKS Program

Extended Stay America, an integrated hotel owner/operator in North America, said it debuted WORKS, a comprehensive business travel program composed of products and services designed to help manage all facets of a company’s travel requirements. WORKS connects business travelers to an affordable and caring extended stay hotel brand, helping companies, their corporate travel managers, and their associates go further.

“With over 25 years of experience supporting today’s smart, self-sufficient and value conscious business travelers, we realize that our clients and their companies work hard every day - and that their lodging partner should help them achieve their goals,” said Tom Buoy, Executive Vice President of Revenue for Extended Stay America. “Understanding what is important to them and why they buy is why we are introducing WORKS - a program designed to help them achieve their goals and to reinforce how Extended Stay America WORKS for them.”

Key benefits of Extended Stay America’s WORKS program include:

• Customized client landing pages for one-stop booking

• Preferred partner pricing so the more you stay, the more you save
• Dedicated account managers to partner with directly and assist companies with bookings, billing and reporting

• Central direct billing to simplify the payment process for both the travel manager and their employees
• Free enrollment in Extended Perks, an instant rewards program that grants travelers access to thousands of deals, whether traveling for business or pleasure anywhere in the U.S.

“As a road warrior for over a decade, I know that business travel brings with it a unique set of challenges, for companies, the corporate travel manager booking the travel and the employees themselves doing the traveling,” says Marcey Rader, the Savve Travel Expert® for Extended Stay America hotels. “It’s exciting to see Extended Stay America demonstrate their keen understanding of what is important to business travelers, how they can help streamline the process and most importantly, how they can best assist companies in achieving their business travel goals.”
