Getaroom.com will be available through HBSi’s iDemand Gateway, an integrated channel management and connectivity solution for hotel companies. The iDemand Gateway entirely automates the connections between hotel inventory systems and distribution outlets. Through HBSi, Getaroom.com gains increased flexibility and access to an even wider range of hotels around the world.
"With HBSi’s solution, we know we’re offering each hotel’s most up-to-date rates and inventory—it’s simple and seamless," said Bob Diener, President of Getaroom.com. "Through HBSI, we can quickly add additional hotel partners down the road with no need to establish new connectivity from scratch; overall, it’s an excellent solution for both hotels and distributors," Diener added.
"Great value is the top promise of Getaroom.com, and it’s why these entrepreneurs are succeeding in this economy," said HBSi COO Greg Berman. "HBSi’s many hotel partners will have a great distribution outlet in this vibrant new Web site."
Both a newcomer and an innovator, Getaroom.com has achieved success quickly through two primary avenues. First, its Web site focuses on major destinations, value pricing and leisure travelers. Getaroom.com offers travelers various ways to receive significant discounts. By booking accommodations through the site’s Deal of the Day program—discounts are available for a limited time period, usually just 24-72 hours—travelers can save up to 50 percent. When travelers call the Getaroom.com call center, they can receive even bigger hotel discounts with its Unpublished Rates Program, in which substantially lower rates are available only to travelers that call 1-800-HOTELS-8. The rate is hidden and revealed only after the booking is made, but unlike other discount travel sites, customers know exactly which hotel they’re getting in advance.
