Room Type Matching: Industry game changer from roomsXML.com

Yet another feature that’s first in the online accommodation segment. roomsXML.com has invested thousands of dollars and man-hours in building the feature that now displays the room types exactly as per the hotel’s very own room names.

Each hotel has their own nomenclature to name a room. But hotel booking systems hardly retain the original name. So, instead of calling a “Rainbow Tower Ocean Front Corner Room”; other systems find it safe in showing the room simply as a “Corner Room”.

Well, the simplified room name is not wrong, but it leads to confusion when the travel agents or their customers call up the hotel to double check their booking – a mismatch in the room type may cause heartburns to the traveler as well as the travel agent. From a travel agent’s perspective this feature not only removes the guess work whilst making a room booking, but also keeps their customers happy!

Room names for over 3,900 most popular hotels around the world have been correctly matched. Hundreds more are added to the count every week. roomsXML.com is amongst the world’s leading accommodation wholesalers catering exclusively to the travel trade. It was established in 2007 and since then has gradually entered various global markets quite successfully. The company is ISO 9001:2008 Certified; ranks amongst Dun & Bradstreet’s Leading 100 SMEs of India and has also been rated by Inc. magazine for being amongst the Top 100 Innovative Companies.

Prakash Bang, Managing Director, roomsXML. com said “At roomsXML.com, innovation is the key differentiator. That’s what keeps us leading the pack. Till date we have introduced 9 specific features that were industry’s first — and many of them still are!”
