Website visitors

Booking interest already exists on your website

Before booking, a visitor may want to know how the rooms differ, what is included, or why to book with you rather than through an agent.

The Direct Booking Assistant answers those questions while the interest is still active, applying your hotel’s own booking knowledge, reservation policies and commercial strategy.
