The information will be linked to Loumage Hotels & Resorts’ central reservation system, allowing instant updates on all platforms, in turn reducing chances of over-bookings.

The channel management solution has been tailored to meet the group’s requirement of centralised management, group reporting available on the go through the STAAH mobile app and a single login.

In addition to the STAAH’s Instant Channel Manager solution, Loumage Hotels & Resorts will be using STAAH’s ConvertDirect Booking Engine with the aim of significantly increasing direct booking conversion rates by enabling the group website to be used as a direct, commission-free booking platform.

“We are delighted such a prestigious accommodation provider as the Loumage Hotels & Resorts has chosen to come onboard with us to simplify, centralise and improve their online distribution. We look forward to helping them reach more customers with ease and maximum efficiency,” says Tarun Joukani, Managing Director, STAAH India Ltd.
