Corporate Hotel Services

Overview

When organizing your event, incorporating the guidance of a hotel specialist should be part of your strategy. This assures you are finding the right hotel at the right price. In today's business environment, it would be very hard to independently source and negotiate hotels as effectively as a professional hotel advisor can with their up-to-the-minute industry edge.

More importantly, because the liability of a hotel contract can be considerable, a hotel professional works with you throughout the contract term to help manage deadlines, deposits, drop dates, mitigation clauses, minimize risk and analyze historic data for future leverage.

Corporate Events

Increase Your Staff, Not Your Budget
All the decisions are yours; our hotel services just relieve you of the tedious foot and phone work when dealing with the hotel process. You and your staff can concentrate on program content, guests, vendors, speakers, etc. A hotel professional represents you, not the hotel and we negotiate on your behalf to get the most favorable terms possible. But you will never receive an invoice from us; we receive a commission from the hotel. Event planners report saving 5-10 hours per week when using professional hotel services.

Contracts are Agreements
When entering into a hotel contract, you do so expecting the hotel will bring you hospitality services, an environment that meets expectations and assurance your guests will have accommodation. You promise to bring guests and other business to the hotel. A contract ensures both parties meet reasonable expectations in their mutual commitment. Hotels write, literally, dozens of contracts weekly – they know what they need. Bring a professional to these negotiations to make sure you get what you need.

Up To 40 Negotiable Terms in Most Hotel Contracts
And if that doesn’t make it complicated enough, each hotel chain and all independent hotels usually write their contracts differently. Even the same hotel brand may produce different contracts for different locations. A hotel professional brings standardization to the most complicated clauses, so that working together we can concentrate on details that are most important to you or your organization.

Last Minute Hotel Needs
Has your host hotel ever sold out or was a last minute meeting required? Highly efficient sourcing systems can find the best choices for remedies in a flash. One call to our housing specialist provides details of all qualified hotels quickly and concisely. We use over 30 ‘filters’ to refine the search by availability, meeting space, number of rooms, chain, distance, amenities, average rates, ratings and other criteria.

Multiple Year Hotels
Comparative data is especially important when using the same hotel year after year. Evaluating your favorite hotel with like properties in the same area, assures you are getting good and fair terms in their contract. Also, it may be time to look at surrounding options. Our hotel services have access to an impressive data base that allows us to analyze many properties in a clear, concise report.
