Hotels See Increases in Business with Timeless Hospitality Internet Platform
Internet Reservation Platform Helps Hotels Attract Business and Manage Operations
New York, NY April 8, 2002 -- Hotels utilizing Timeless Hospitalitys Internet platform are experiencing tremendous" increases in booked volume since implementing the companys Internet reservations solution. Hotels that had previously used website booking products offered by rep companies, technology companies and GDS connectivity providers have seen dramatic increases in their hotel website reservations since switching to Timeless Hospitalitys products.
Our Internet volume has increased 150% since implementing the Timeless Hospitality solution. The products work so well because Timeless Hospitalitys founders are hoteliers first, and cyber-people second. They have first hand knowledge of the challenges and opportunities facing a hotel, and have custom-built products that are superior to the other Internet products on the market," says Bob Gaeta, Resident Manager of the Wellington Hotel in New York.
Jorge Garciadealba, International Sales Manager of the Kimberly Hotel agrees, In less than 6 months Timeless Hospitality has become a top generator of room nights for our property. In addition to the booking increases, we now receive incredibly valuable information from Timeless Hospitality that helps us manage rates and inventory. Reporting that we used to have to beg for at a cost, is now at our fingertips for free."
The Timeless Hospitality platform simply requires an Internet connection to help hotels increase their online reservations and marketing programs. With a full range of products, Timeless Hospitality enables hoteliers to pick and choose the tools they need to maximize their web business. The platform combines yield management with customer relationship management to deliver a powerful solution for hoteliers.
Founders Brian Dass and David Millili, both former hoteliers in the competitive New York market, conceived of the platform to meet the need for a comprehensive, easy-to-use Internet solution for hotel reservations. They were able to attract seasoned talent to head up the company in Domenic Rinaldi, formerly COO of WorldRes.com and a senior manager of Sprints hospitality vertical. With the concept and management in place, the team was able to secure funding in a very difficult market last October, raising financing in a round led by Scripps Ventures.
Timeless platform, along with its online marketing initiatives has proven indispensable for properties. The Dylan Hotel in Manhattan gave up the Timeless platform to sample another booking engine, but quickly returned to the Timeless Hospitality platform. Matthias Sandner, General Manager of The Dylan explains, We did a five month comparison between our Timeless reservation production and that of our new provider and discovered that we needed to go back to Timeless. The volume from Timeless Hospitality was nearly double our other provider. I think its due to the fact that the Timeless team is solely focused on maximizing revenue and reservations to our website. Weve been back just under a week and we have already seen an increase in reservations and revenue from our website."
The beauty of our platform is that it was designed by hoteliers and is very easy to use," states Domenic Rinaldi, President and CEO of Timeless Hospitality. We leveraged our day-to-day hotel operations experience to create just what hotels need: ways to attract business, tools to book reservations online, access to critical management reporting information, and easy integration into a hotels operation. And most importantly, we have a seasoned hotel team in place to help our customers make the most of the technology."
