BENGALURU, KARNATAKA, INDIA, October 4, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Simplotel, a leading SaaS company offering hotel ecommerce solutions, today announced that The Residency Group of Hotels has seen its direct bookings grow 4x through its brand website. The Tamil Nadu-based 5-star hotel chain leveraged Simplotel Hotel E-commerce (comprising Simplotel Website Builder & Booking Engine) to drive this growth.— V Balaji, Regional Director - Sales & Marketing, The Residency Hotels
Mr. V Balaji, Regional Director of Sales & Marketing at The Residency Hotels, said, “Previously, we did about 150-200 room nights each month across all properties. After onboarding Simplotel, we have scaled 700 monthly room nights. This is a phenomenal statistic. From 1% today Simplotel has helped us hit 5% in direct bookings out of our total occupancy.”
Simplotel improved the look-and-feel of the website & reduced the guest booking journey to three steps, thereby providing a booking experience similar to online travel agencies (OTAs). The website now has a super-fast load time where pictures and videos do not get pixelated or do not have buffering issues; and is compatible across all devices — laptops, mobiles, desktops and tablets.
Mr. Balaji also acknowledged the tremendous support from the Simplotel team. “They are always available to resolve our concerns. We really appreciate their customer-centric approach and proactiveness.” Another contributing factor towards their growth in direct bookings is Simplotel’s integration with various payment gateways. “The Simplotel Booking Engine’s ability to create multiple offers for a single property or the entire chain; and its connectivity with various other payment gateways has really helped us optimise our revenues well.”
“We are really happy to see The Residency Group of Hotels leverage our technology and integration to grow their direct room nights. This 300% jump in direct bookings is only possible because of their proactive support and enthusiasm to grow direct room nights,” said Tarun Goyal, Founder & CEO of Simplotel.
