Lodging Interactive Powers Up Websites with LodgiRez
APRIL 24, 2007. Lodging Interactive, a leading provider of interactive marketing services to the hospitality industry, today announced the introduction of LodgiRez(sm) Internet Booking Engine for hotels and resorts. LodgiRez(sm) is a state-of-the-art Internet Booking engine with integrated GDS connectivity and a single point of management.
'LodgiRez(sm) makes it easier for all hotels to manage their GDS and website booking engine reservations. This innovative system delivers an attractive full service Internet Booking Engine and a single interface to the leading Global Distribution Systems. Hotels can use the system for one or both reservation services,' said DJ Vallauri, Lodging Interactive's Founder & President.
The LodgiRez(sm) system saves time managing room rates, availability, packages, group rates and so much more. It also provides an attractive website booking engine without the limitations of a flash booking engine. The website booking engine web pages match hotel website designs and enable a best practice three step reservations process. The LodgiRez(sm) website booking engine is available for a single property website or a multiple property website.
The LodgiRez(sm) GDS interface offers a simple process for loading of GDS rates, availability, policies and description information. Hotels can view and compare GDS and website rates all in one place. The LodgiRez(sm) system makes it easier to keep GDS rates, which appear on the 3rd party websites, in sync with hotel website and other Internet sales channels.
Richard Walsh, Vice President of Business Development for Lodging Interactive stated, 'When we developed LodgiRez(sm) we were aware of all the GDS and Internet booking engine options that are available to hotels today. At the same time, it was important to us to be able to provide our clients with a reliable total solution. By integrating LodgiRez(sm) with our other services, such as our eProposal Sales System, we can provide an end-to-end sales and marketing solution for any hotel or resort.'
