The previous year’s limited launch of Travelport Hotelzon’s Next Generation app secured numerous new customer wins in Europe last year, including around 50 new customers in quarter four alone who chose to adopt Hotelzon as their sole hotel booking tool within the region. 2016 also saw a number of global agencies in the US adopting Hotelzon under reseller agreements.
The Hotelzon app provides a simple and intuitive booking experience for hotel reservations on-the-go. Through it, Hotelzon corporate customers can search and chose from over 300,000 hotels worldwide and securely book the best available rates, including the company’s negotiated rates, enabling business travelers to stay in the right location and within policy, wherever they do business and avoiding non-compliant bookings which cost businesses significant wasted expenditure. Furthermore, user preferences are securely stored for faster bookings and travelers can book knowing their choice will be 100% in line with company policy.
“The Travelport Hotelzon app provides the convenience and hotel choice travelers seek, whilst keeping hotel bookings within policy and providing better clarity on spending to the company,” explains Daniel Guillou, Managing Director at Hotelzon.
The newly designed app is available for download on Android, iOS and Windows Phone devices for Travelport Hotelzon customers.
