Paired with Amadeus’ Guest Management Solution, the Indian hotel chain will better manage reservations and guest loyalty as it plans for recovery
March 3, 2021 – 2020 was a tough year for the Indian hospitality industry. With overall occupancy in the branded hotels segment estimated to have dropped by 16.7 – 20.5% percentage points versus 2019, Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR) witnessed a significant decline (estimated between 31 to 36.2%). As hoteliers begin to welcome travelers back into the fold, those that invest in their distribution strategies will get ahead of the competition.
THE Park Hotels, already a user of Amadeus’ Guest Management Solution (GMS), will now deploy Amadeus’ iHotelier® Central Reservations System, helping to deliver a simple, intuitive and responsive user experience across all devices and customer touch points to make hotel bookings fast and simple.
The combination of Amadeus’ iHotelier® and GMS will enable THE Park Hotels to efficiently manage reservations, guest loyalty, and customer communications. By offering customized rates, packages, and promotions based on guest data, the boutique luxury chain will be able to personalize the shopping experience across multiple channels, maximizing each guest’s value while driving demand, bookings, and revenue.
“A focused distribution channel strategy that is closely aligned to travelers’ expectations and behaviors and can provide the right offer at the right time is absolutely essential for us as we recover,” said Vijay Dewan, Managing Director, THE Park Hotels. “We believe that Amadeus provides one of the best digital solutions for the hospitality industry and this partnership will help us maintain our leadership in the market.”
“Hotels need to increasingly differentiate themselves from the competition. With these integrated solutions, THE Park Hotels will be able to improve customer targeting and outreach before, during, and after each stay. Travelers are more empowered by choice as they are seamlessly guided through the booking path with interactive messaging and clear calls to action. It’s an elevated booking experience worthy of THE Park Hotels brand,” added Joy Ghosh, Regional Vice President, India and Subcontinent, Hospitality, Amadeus.
THE Park Hotels is a pioneer in the concept of luxury boutique hotels in India. Over the 50 years since it was first established, the group has grown in popularity and prestige, achieving global standards of product quality and service excellence.
