MINNEAPOLIS Hotel sales and marketing consortia Prestige Resorts & Destinations Ltd. and Keytel have formed a partnership to boost each other’s business between the United States and Europe.
The new group, Prestige Hotels of the World by Keytel, gives the Spain-based Keytel a significant new foothold in the United States, while the smaller Minneapolis-based Prestige Resorts can leverage Keytel’s powerful global sales infrastructure.
“Through our new partnership with Prestige Hotels of the World by Keytel, we are able to offer individual reservations through the GDS and CRS,” says Prestige Resorts President and CEO Blair McKeever. “Couple this new sales component with our group sales, which have been a staple of our 25 years in business, and we stand ahead of all our key competitors. This is a significant enhancement that benefits all our member hotels and destination management companies.”
