hotel.info, the online hotel reservation service with more than 210,000 hotels worldwide announced today that it is now working with Conferma, one of the leading providers of T&E booking, settlement and reconciliation solutions.

As a result of this agreement, Travel Management Companies ( TMC’s) that use the Conferma solution will now have the ability to both book, settle and reconcile more hotel transactions by accessing the wide-ranging hotel content available on hotel.info. In addition, hotel.info offers corporate discounts, their Best Price Guarantee and company negotiated rates. Furthermore the Conferma settlement system ensures a streamlined payment and reconciliation process which both reduces administration cost and improves operational efficiency.

“We are delighted to welcome hotel.info into the Conferma network. It will allow our customers to gain access to a much larger selection of hotels. This means that many small, owner-managed hotels and smaller hotel chains, not connected to the traditional booking systems, can now be booked, settled and reconciled through Conferma’s solution. This makes travel planning much easier for TMCs and helps to reduce the processing time taken and the associated costs”, said Shaun Hinds, Conferma’s Commercial Director.

Andreas Klug, Country Manager for the UK at hotel.info, underlines the advantages of the new service offer: “We are delighted to be able to further expand our network of internet booking engines through Conferma. Thus both travel agencies and corporate travellers benefit from our extensive hotel offer. Through this added value in the business travel segment we are well-equipped to be able to further our internationalisation.”
