"HotelDirectBook.com was originally created to offer a direct distribution opportunity and source of revenue for our clients. However, we were pleasantly surprised to see that many additional hotels have signed up to be represented on HotelDirectBook.com," stated DJ Vallauri, Lodging Interactive's Founder & President.
HotelDirectBook.com offers hotels incremental benefits such as:
| | - A direct booking channel straight into the hotel's own website

"HotelDirectBook.com reaffirms our commitment to develop and introduce tools and services which ultimately drive additional revenues to our clients," stated Mr. Vallauri.
