Effective group accommodation management

picture

Most companies and international organisations need to arrange group accommodation on a regular basis. Whether for training, internal meetings, visiting groups or conferences. The task of managing group accommodation is often undertaken by different individuals across various departments, usually without a uniform system or process. Where systems exist they are often manual: managing room numbers and rooming lists is done via emails and a spreadsheet.

Cut workload and increase efficiency

Roomtrust GROUPS has been designed to cut workload and help organisers manage group accommodation in an effective way. It also provides a platform from which all group accommodation commitments can be seen and controlled.

Group organisers can set up and manage all their group accommodation needs in one place. Contracting is easily done via the system, directly with hotels, no need for endless paperwork. Contracted room blocks are easily managed and are visible to both organiser and hotel. Unique booking pages can be created in seconds for each event so that invited delegates can make and manage their own rooms from contracted blocks. Room usage is instantly visible and rooming lists can be run at any time by organiser or hotel.

Access to the system can be given to all those responsible for group accommodation across an organisation's hierarchy. Hotel preferences and contracts can be managed on a central level enabling organisers to concentrate on managing their event.

Key features

Manage group hotels
Organisations can introduce any contracted hotel into the system or use existing connected hotels on an ad hoc basis. "Preferred" hotels and destinations can be centrally managed. Negotiated deals for group accommodation are stored in the system and automatically applied to contracted groups.

Groups requests via the system
Group requests are generated from the system and instantly sent to connected hotels. Hotels respond with group offers directly in the system.

Central visibility
All ongoing groups are visible in one place. Organisers can see the current status, look at bookings and generate a rooming list. Key management also have an overview of all current commitments.

Customised online booking sites in seconds
Group organisers can create an online hotel booking site for their event in seconds, allowing delegates to book (and manage) their own accommodation. Detailed confirmations are sent automatically to bookers, room status and rooming lists are automatically updated.
