Access Bookings is now a preferred partner of HotelREZ Hotels & Resorts, gaining access to the representation company's vast portfolio of independent and small chains of hotels in over 27 countries.
Emma Stevenson, Director of Sales at HotelREZ, explains:
“We are very pleased with our new partnership with Access Bookings. They have an incredible client list including major broadcasters like the BBC, as well as leading production and outside broadcast companies, and even some of the major film studios. We are confident this will be a long and fruitful partnership, and it will be able to generate invaluable corporate business for our independent member hotels across the globe.”
Lilybea Taylor, Supplier Relations Manager at Access Bookings, said:
“As specialists in the media industry, we work with a lot of different production teams and their requirements can be, of course, very particular. What we really like about HotelREZ is that they offer an incredible range of independent accommodation, including some really beautiful historic country manors in the UK and Ireland, but also the more modern boutique-style hotels or serviced apartments in the city centres. I have no doubt their portfolio of independent hotels will fit our clients' needs extremely well.”
