Here we are with more weekly fresh news from the Hoobing team. On this occasion we announce that HUSA Hotel Chain has registered all its hotels in Barcelona. Currently, if you carry out a search process by hotel under the term “HUSA” on Hoobing.com, you will get the name of 10 establishments of the chain.
This fact shows two things: each time more and more prestige hotel chains rely on Hoobing’s philosophy and that our website is continually being improved and upgraded with state-of-the-art programming and functionalities, for we have integrated a multiple registration system for hotels, very useful for those hotel chains composed by a large amount of entities, like Husa hotels in Barcelona.
In the case you are part of a hotel chain and wish to register all your establishments at the same time, please contact us in this email address.
Regards from the Hoobing team!

As we announced some weeks ago, Hoobing has been integrated with channel managers like Rate Tiger and Channel Direct, so you, the hoteliers, will be able to display your rates on Hoobing. As you know, all prices displayed on your datasheet will be merely informative as users will have to carry out all booking processes on the hotel’s own website.

Today, we can announce that the integration we missed have been carried out successfully. Hotels using EZ Yield Channel Manager will be able to display the rates of your establishment by means of this platform.

We believe that the culmination of this last integration is a very important step forward for your hotels because from now on you will not only be able to display static information of your establishments – descriptions, pictures, videos, services -  but also update dynamically your rates by means of the said channel managers.

If your hotel is currently using any of these channel managers and you do not know how to proceed to display prices on Hoobing, contact us on this mail and we will guide through the entire process.

Gradually, Hoobing is becoming more and more known at an international level. In this sense, some online tourism magazines like “Turismo Extra”, “Traffic News” and “80 días” are commenting our launching.

As we announced a couple of days ago, Hoobing was present in Fitur. After these intense days visiting the stands of many hotels, the results have been very positive.

The general feeling after these days is that Hoobing is a very attractive project for hoteliers, for our main purpose is to offer a portal where users are not only able to easily find the official hotel website –and check its rates through the use by hotels of channel managers-, but also to look for tourism blogs to better prepare their trips and holidays, share their experiences with other users by means of the Hoobing community, etc. For the hotel, Hoobing is the perfect channel to reach the user, not only because it can redirect traffic to its official website, but also interact with him being able to answer comments and reviews.

One of the most interesting functionalities for the hotelier is the option to include offers on Hoobing.com. In this way, we are already working so hotels can use an offer manager within their datasheet, being able to publicize those aspects they consider more attractive for the final users.

But, we didn’t spend all our time visiting hotel stands; we also assisted to Hosteltur Community Meeting, where we had the pleasure to meet Magdalena Camps, Community Manager of the Hosteltur Community, Carlos, Business Manager of Hosteltur, Andreu Llabres, Marketing Manager of Amic Hotels Mallorca, Carlos Velilla, Commercial manager of the hotel Finca Prats de Lleida, Johanna Cavalcanti, Viva & Vanity hotels e-Commerce Manager,  Juan Antonio Rodriguez, Pierre et Vacances Online Marketing Manager, Andreu Roig, Es Picot Commercial Manager, among others.

Fitur is gone, now is the turn of ITB in Berlin. See you there!
