New Partnership in the Business Travel Segment: hotel.info to Integrate With Concur

NUREMBERG, Germany, May 18, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- hotel.info (http://www.hotel.info), the leading online hotel reservation service with more than 210,000 hotels worldwide, has a new agreement with Concur (http://www.concur.de), the world's leading provider of on-demand Employee Spend Management services, to integrate its hotel content into Concur(R) Travel & Expense and Concur(R) Cliqbook Travel.

Under this new partnership, companies already using Concur's corporate travel management solution can now also benefit from the rich inventory of hotel.info properties directly in the booking tool. Thanks to the daily updates of the available hotel offers, travellers seeking a room can always be sure that they will find the best daily updated rates. The added option of being able to store negotiated rates and travel policies ensures that Concur and hotel.info show the best rates.

"Thanks to the new agreement with Concur, we have successfully expanded our network of partnerships in the web-based area of business travel management systems. Even more corporate customers will now benefit from our hotel offerings, which are integrated. This means that we are well equipped to progress our international roll-out," said Peter Hildenbrand, Sales Manager at hotel.info.

Barry Padgett, senior vice president and general manager of EMEA at Concur, emphasised the expansion of the service offer brought by this new partnership. "Our customers will now benefit from a much larger hotel inventory. Because hotel.info has joined Concur(R) Connect, the global program that provides clients with access to content otherwise unavailable through traditional travel programs, it is now possible to book a portfolio of smaller hotels and hotel chains using our corporate travel booking system. We can now offer a higher variety of rates with increased transparency and more efficiency helping customers save money."
