Paris, July 8, 2010 | FastBooking, one of the world's leading providers of advanced Internet booking systems and e-marketing solutions for the hospitality industry, has been selected by the Grand Hôtel Suisse-Majestic as its partner for channel management and e-booking solutions. The newly renovated Grand Hôtel Suisse-Majestic, located on the banks of Lake Geneva in Montreux, Switzerland, will use FastBooking Updater to streamline management of rates and availability on its Internet distribution sites. The hotel will also replace its existing online booking system with the FastBooking Engine, the industry's most comprehensive, high performance Internet booking engine. FastBooking Updater is a powerful Internet-based channel management solution with sophisticated updating functionalities. The system enables hoteliers to update rates, availability and many more options across distribution websites from a single interface. "This single-click functionality really seduced us. It saves us hours of time each week and really simplifies our channel management tasks enormously," says Virginie Schumacher, Sales and Group Coordinator for the Grand Hôtel Suisse-Majestic. FastBooking Engine combines advanced merchandising facilities with an intuitive, user-friendly booking interface that results in higher conversion rates and greater revenues. All the hotel's special offers and packages can be easily promoted. The proven, three step booking process encourages clients to book additional high-value services or add options. The Grand Hôtel Suisse-Majestic recently ended a nearly nine-month long top-to-bottom renovation program. The building has been reborn in the spirit of the 1870's Belle Époque that was the hotel's original splendor. The number of rooms increased to 156 each with a view of the mountains or the lake and all completely renovated. State-of-the-art conference facilities and a terrace bar and restaurant featuring creative seasonal specialties were also added. "We are reclaiming our reputation as a four-star establishment with all the requisite amenities and services. Clearly, our online booking system has to be on par with a hotel of this caliber. That's why we chose FastBooking," continues Virginie Schumacher. Also among the many reasons cited for selecting FastBooking was the professionalism and expertise of the sales and account management teams. "The hospitality business is about relationships. Not only does FastBooking have the technical solutions, we were impressed with their understanding of our business. They really positioned themselves as our partner in defining long-term solutions that respond to our specific issues." "We are proud to have been selected by the Grand Hôtel Suisse-Majestic as their preferred partner in their online business," says Jean Thierry Lods, FastBooking Sales Director. "The hotel's goal is to provide the best possible service to its clients. It's a philosophy and approach to business that we both share."About D-EDGE
