Luxury Hotel Group Expands Online Bookings with Global CRS Switch
Rocco Forte Hotels has chosen the CRS distribution platform, SiteMinder to power its online distribution through seamless integration of the group CRS and Revenue Management Systems to the world’s leading online booking sites.
The move will streamline the rate and availability distribution process for Rocco Forte’s 13 luxurious hotels in Europe and the Middle East, boost exposure to online booking channels globally and drive down the cost of booking acquisition.
The SiteMinder Channel Manager provides a complete two-way integration to Rocco Forte Hotel’s protel Multi-Property-Edition (MPE) CRS and the world’s leading booking channels by distributing live availability from protel MPE to booking sites and seamlessly capturing all online reservations directly back into protel MPE – all for a flat monthly fee.
SiteMinder’s full integration with leading revenue management system, IDeaS, completes a “holistic distribution solution” for Rocco Forte Hotels. Live rate recommendations are automatically sent from IDeaS to SiteMinder and distributed to the online channels in real time.
