Success story: Hotel Price Assurance helps lower hotel costs

Retailer finds savings, certainty amid changing hotel rates.

A U.S.-based clothing retailer used BCD Travel’s Hotel Price Assurance to lower hotel program costs and convince travelers to stay within travel policy. The result: monthly savings averaging $5,517 on about 900 new bookings per month.

Hotel Price Assurance automatically shops for lower hotel rates after a traveler books a room. If the price drops, an agent will validate the rate and rebook the traveler in the same hotel, with the same room type, bed type and amenities—but at the lower price.

The solution gives the retailer’s business travelers confidence that they’re always getting the lowest hotel rate, so they stop worrying about prices they see on the web. And when on-the-go employees stay within corporate travel policy for hotels, the company cuts its costs.

“I was surprised by what we were saving—really surprised,” the travel manager said. “I didn’t realize how much money we were leaving on the table.”
