  • Hotelook HoteLook(R) has developed the world's first 'generic direct booking portal (GDBP)' which will maximise online generated revenue for hoteliers and property owners through sales directly from their property's web site.



    HoteLook(R)'s web site, www.hotelook.com.au, is currently promoting its direct linking service to the Homepage and Reservation web pages of all Australian accommodations' web sites. To view a demonstration of this direct booking link service with one of HoteLook(R)'s members 'MGSM Executive Hotel', please enter the following Internet Address in the address space of your web browser:

    http://www.hotelook.com/code/single_search.aspx?accom_id=43548

    When MGSM Executive Hotel is displayed, click the flashing 'Click here, to Book!' button (on the top left corner) and the reservations web page from the MGSM Executive Hotel will be shown, where travelers can immediately make their bookings directly. This successfully represents an accelerated room selling process for MGSM Executive Hotel when using HoteLook(R)'s generic direct booking portal.

    The setting up of direct links to a property's homepage and reservation web pages on our generic direct booking portal is both easy to accomplish and effective. Once the direct links are operational, any potential travellers ('customers') will be instantly directed to the reservation web page from our portal and can start booking rooms.

    The set-up fee for direct booking links on HoteLook(R)'s generic direct booking portal is only AUD 22.00, including GST, for each property. Essentially there is no booking commission or fee charged for any room reservations made by clients.

    Any Australian accommodation interested to be a part of the world's first generic direct booking portal, please send your accommodation name and address, and the Internet Addresses of your property's homepage and reservation web pages by email to: sales@hotelook.com. HoteLook(R) staff will enable this service for you (and an invoice will be billed later).
