We book hotel rooms online. We book train tickets online. We can even order dinner in a couple of taps.
So why can booking a meeting room still involve emails, enquiries and waiting for someone to confirm availability?
Together, Inntel and Leonardo Hotels are helping to change that.
Through Instant Book Meetings, Inntel clients can access live availability and pricing for 358 meeting rooms across 43 Leonardo Hotels in the UK and Ireland, with meetings for up to 30 attendees available to book online, 24/7.
Instant Book Meetings brings availability, pricing and confirmation together in one place. Bookers can find suitable Leonardo Hotels meeting space, see what’s available and secure it there and then.
Simon Rigby, Account Development Director – Meetings & Events at Leonardo Hotels, explains:
“We wanted to make booking meeting space as simple as booking a hotel room. See what’s available, see the price and book instantly.”
Making the booking process simpler doesn’t mean compromising on choice.
Across the Leonardo Hotels UK and Ireland portfolio, bookers can access meeting rooms in a range of styles and locations, from contemporary spaces to rooms full of history and character.
From the sophisticated Rolls Suite at The Midland Manchester to the modern meeting and events spaces at Leonardo Royal London St Paul’s, there’s plenty of choice when it comes to finding the right setting.
A good reminder that ‘meeting room’ doesn’t have to mean four walls and no windows.
At Inntel, we’re always looking at how technology can make things simpler for our clients. Instant Book Meetings is a great example of that thinking in action.
By working with partners such as Leonardo Hotels, we can combine our meetings expertise and technology with greater venue choice to create a simpler booking experience.
As Simon puts it:
“It’s about putting the customer in control. They can search, select and confirm their meeting space when it suits them.”
For Anna Snoep, Director of Operations and ESG at Inntel, it’s a great example of what can be achieved when strong supplier partnerships and technology come together:
“Booking a meeting room shouldn’t be complicated. We’re used to searching, comparing and booking so much of our lives online, yet meeting space has traditionally involved a much more manual process.
“Working with Leonardo Hotels shows how technology and strong supplier partnerships can change that. With Instant Book Meetings, we’re giving our clients greater choice, more control and a simpler way to book. Together, we’re bringing meeting bookings into the 21st century.”
