. October 14, 2008

JULY 25, 2005. The new site will enable users to easily search for and find independent hotels with unique personalities, to closely match their travel needs in more than 100 countries around the world. "This is the first Web site designed solely to help independent hotels and small hotel groups capture a larger share of online hotel bookings," said Pegasus COO Bob Boles. "People are becoming more comfortable booking their accommodations online," Boles noted. "In fact, online hotel bookings now account for one in five bookings, up from one in 12 just three years ago. Hotelbook.com will enable independent hoteliers, who have a uniquely valuable product to offer, to attract more of these travellers."

Participating hotels are current customers of Pegasus and include Utell by Pegasus, Unirez by Pegasus and a selection of properties from Pegasus' private label hotels. Hotelbook.com is promoted as The Official Site of Independent Hotels, and with its tagline, asks travelers to "Stay Independent."

"Hotelbook.com will be a retail site similar to other Internet channels," Boles said. "What's truly unique about hotelbook.com is that it highlights the amazing variety and amenities of independent hotels available to consumers, even in locations where the large hotel chains might not have a presence," Boles said. "Additionally, with hotelbook.com, our hoteliers will retain complete control of their rates and inventory, helping to ensure optimal revenue management for each property," he added.
