New York, US, 2014-1-7 — /travelprnews.com/ — The new last minute booking app from Warwick International Hotels, Warwick Tonight, is now available for download via the iTunes App Store and offers same-day deals in the hotel’s Collection for travelers and local customers with last-minute accommodation requirements.
Warwick International Hotels is a Collection of over 50 highly individual hotels and resorts in the upscale and luxury segment across 5 continents. Each hotel in The Collection reflects the spirit of the deep-rooted origins in the locale it inhabits, originality and personality it possesses, made exquisite by influences of its history, people and culture.
The Warwick Tonight app was developed by the mobile travel specialist, Mobile Travel Technologies Ltd. (MTT) leveraging its white label last minute booking product, Eleventh Hour Hotels.
Each Warwick hotel deal featured is exclusive to the app and offers the best rate available for the hotel room that day.
The booking process through the Warwick Tonight app is quick and user friendly, the customer’s location can be detected with GPS and the booking can be made straight from the search results or alternatively the customer can first view the hotel’s features and reviews before proceeding to booking.
Customers also have the ability to apply filters around their search results in relation to price, distance and star rating.
Warwick Tonight reaps benefits for both the hotel group and its guests; offering great last minute rates to customers and enabling the hotel to maintain a direct relationship with its customers through this channel.
The MTT Eleventh Hour Hotels product provides an alternative to the same-day booking intermediaries in the market and it offers hotel chains the opportunity to take ownership of the last-minute channel and their positioning within this space.
“Warwick guests tend to be very loyal to our brand, stated by Alan Gonzalez, Director of Distribution & E-commerce for Warwick International Hotels. We wanted to provide them with a dedicated service fully designed to respond to their needs and to attract new customers with an intuitive and comprehensive last minute mobile booking tool”.
Warwick Tonight enables the Warwick International Hotels Collection to strengthen its distribution strategy by offering other booking alternatives to its guests.
