Independent Hotels Increasingly Popular for Business Travellers

Hertford, England -- (SBWire) -- 11/18/2015 --NFS Technology Group is advising independent hoteliers to integrate efficient booking software technology to take advantage of the business travel sector increasingly showing preference for independent hotels.

Latest research has shown that there was a steady month-on-month increase in the number of independent hotels booked, with a total increase of 38% from 2013 to 2014. The period 2014 to 2015 saw an even larger year-on-year rise of 59%.

As more travel managers now consider independent hotels within their corporate travel programme when booking overnight accommodation for employees, it is up to hoteliers to ensure they are fully prepared to maximize the opportunity.

Luis de Souza, CEO of NFS Technology Group says: "While it is fantastic news that independent hotels are finally starting to get the recognition they deserve from business hotel bookers in 2015, it's equally important that the said hotels are ready and prepared, set up to deal with the increased demand.

"Latest booking room software such as roomMaster is proven to make a professional difference and enable a great guest experience, right from enabling an efficient booking stage, through to quick check-in procedures using the latest technology, experiencing facilities and leaving a review of their stay."

roomMaster from NFS is a fully integrated property management software for hotels from ten to more than 1,000 rooms. It easily and seamlessly handles reservations, sales ledger, point of sale, gift cards, sales and marketing functionality and the ability to make better rate decisions through dynamic yield management.

Linking to leading channel manager Navarino/SynXis, roomMaster enables automatic updates to GDS's and leading booking sites such as Expedia, Wotif, Booking.com and Agoda.

For maximum efficiency, reservations from booking sites and from the hotels own website are automatically captured by Navarino/SynXis and imported directly into the hotels' roomMaster reservation system, eliminating the need to manually re-key reservation emails and faxes.
