The evolution of direct online hotel bookings and new technologies that change the hotel world

The autonomy of Hotel Sales and new markets for Greek hotels and villas
Given the change of landscape in hotel sales, the global-reach platform OTA Insight in cooperation with BookOnlineNow, one of the most rapidly emerging booking engines, will share ideas for the increase of Online Revenue, in an original debate that will analyze the new reality for OTAs and the modern online tools for Revenue monitoring in hotels. Within the same concept, the new TBI Hotels will invite two leading companies in Hotel Digital Marketing, Eyewide & About Hotelier, to present ideas on new markets for Greek hotels. When it comes to villas, the worldwide renown Blue Villas will present the new trends in villas and luxury apartments, as well as the evolution of Airbnb, which lays new foundation for Villa Marketing.
The Hotel experience through Staff and Lighting and the new trend in Hotel Architectural Design
Of course, design but also the overall hotel experience - both of which play a pivotal role in a hotel’s growth - would definitely be part of the Workshops. Hotel staff being a decisive factor in guest experience, Workathlon will present the most advanced staff search methods and the importance of training. Also related to the experience aspect, Archetype architecture medium will organize an interactive workshop to showcase the importance of Archtectural Lighting in guest experience, while there will also be a special session in cooperation with Scent Plus, analyzing the implementation of Scent Marketing in hotels.
