HotelPlanner Breaks Language Barriers!

HotelPlanner offers multilingual booking capabilities for group travel

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Sept. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- HotelPlanner.com revolutionizes online group travel again with a real-time international language and currency converter for its group hotel booking system. This latest technology will make complete online group contracting and reservations possible worldwide.

It is always exciting when the distance between two people is abridged.  HotelPlanner.com now possesses the ability to translate hotel booking requests into seven major European languages, enabling its customer base to submit a group RFP to any one of their hotel partners around the world.  The convenience is magnified on the supplier end, as the site is able to translate customized client comments into the native language of the hotel group manager, and translate the hotel manager's personalized response back to the native language of the client.  This unique feature facilitates communication so effectively that a hotel manager and group customer can negotiate and execute a group contract without being inhibited by language barriers.  Also, the transaction can be wholly accomplished online.  By exchanging online negotiations, one party need not pay homage to the other party's time zone, and may respond and advance the transaction at their convenience. In addition, HotelPlanner has added multilingual planners to its staff if something is "lost in translation" between the hotels and group coordinators.

An example is found below, the exchange between a Dutch-speaking client negotiating a group rate for their school's upcoming travel to Miami, in the United States.  You will see the Hotel Manager in Miami is able to receive the Dutch-speaking client's request, translated for them into English.  When responding with a quote and further negotiations, the Hotel Manager is able to respond in English, and their response is translated into Dutch for review by the client:

Wij willen een hotel dat minimaal 3 kinderen e 4 adults in een suite kan blijven. Vlak bij de Six Flags is het goed en met zwembad

Machine Translated to English:

We want a hotel which minimum 3 children or 4 adults in a suite remain. Near the Six Flags is good and with swimming pool

Co-founder and CIO, John Prince, commented, "We are excited to leverage technology to create new opportunities for hotels and international travelers alike. We believe this will be the first step in unifying our group travel partners worldwide."

Such a service revolutionizes group travel for the online consumer.  No longer will there be anxiety over negotiations occurring half way around the globe.  HotelPlanner.com assures their clients and hotel partners are not lost, but found in translation.
