Five-Star Evergreen Laurel Taipei Taps Utell for Global Distribution Services & More

The five-star Evergreen Laurel Hotel Taipei has joined Utell Hotels & Resorts international hotel portfolio of nearly 9,000 member hotels, which includes two other Evergreen Hotel Group properties that have also switched to Utell. The Evergreen Laurel Hotel Taipei is Utell's first five-star property in Taipei, and, in addition, the hotel has chosen Pegasus Solutions for Global Commission Processing to handle travel agent commission payments

The Evergreen Laurel Hotel Taipei features 95 spacious and well-appointed guest rooms, including 35 suites. Offering two restaurants, including Evergarden's Chinese cuisine, and La Petite Cuisine's French fare, the Evergreen Laurel Hotel Taipei also has an entire floor dedicated to health and rejuvenation. Rooms feature original Italian furniture by Dubini and offer free in-house movies, free high speed Internet access, computerized room security, marble bathrooms and exclusive personalized service buttons.

"Our hotel is known for its personalized service and unparalleled luxury in our market. Utell's comprehensive global sales, marketing and distribution services have yielded impressive business successes for our sister properties in Bangkok, which switched to Utell last year, and in Malaysia, which has been a member for more than a decade," says Marc Huang, general manager of the Evergreen Laurel Hotel Taipei.

As a member of Utell, the Evergreen Laurel Hotel Taipei will benefit from Utell's business generating relationships with travel agents globally, the proven Utell preferred agreements with major TMCs (travel management companies), online distributors, corporations and consortia groups, plus the comprehensive range of powerful business intelligence and Web services products available to members. The hotel will also leverage Pegasus' market-leading reservations and booking technology services, provided to all Utell members.
