Each hotel will be included in Leisureplanet’s enhanced listing, featuring a minimum of 3 pictures per property and allowing customers to make informed decisions when booking.

‘The agreement with TOP International Hotels strengthens one of Leisureplanet’s key assets - our contractual relationship with hotel partners, and represents a valuable addition to the content we offer consumers’ said Pierre Kleinhans chief executive officer of Leisureplanet. ‘The decision by TOP International Hotels to choose Leisureplanet as an Internet distribution partner is another important milestone in Leisureplanet’s objective to deliver to our customers the ultimate leisure travel experience’.
