MCLEAN, Va. - Wednesday, August 20th 2014 [ME NewsWire]
(BUSINESS
WIRE)-- Conrad Hotels & Resorts introduced today the addition of a
new and intuitive Conrad Meetings function to the award-winning Conrad
Concierge mobile app. With this addition, meeting and event planners are
now able to research hotel capabilities across all 23 Conrad properties
worldwide from their smartphone or tablet.
Conrad Meetings
functionality within the brand’s mobile app now provides a direct line
to the in-house event manager from the initial inquiry through the
hotel’s delivery, such as adjusting the temperature of the room,
refreshing catering, or requesting meeting room technology support.
Meeting planners now have a streamlined communication tool to reach
event attendees sharing everything from itinerary items to updates in
real-time.
“Meeting and event planners have plenty to consider
when flawlessly executing a successful event, wedding, or conference,”
said John T. A. Vanderslice, global head, Conrad Hotels & Resorts,
Hilton Worldwide. “We’re committed to shortening the time between
request and execution and making information more readily available,
whether planners are en route to their next event or multi-tasking
during a client meeting.”
Conrad Meetings functionality allows
potential group guests to view hotel capacity charts for meeting room
size, request proposals for group events, and receive information on
floor plans, special offers, weddings, social events, and more. From
requesting a refresh of catering to adjusting the room’s temperature,
event planners can make meeting asks from within the Conrad Concierge
mobile app which are immediately dispatched to the hotel staff for
fulfilment. The new functionality also enables planners to load event
agendas and instantaneously communicate scheduling changes to meeting
attendees through the mobile app.
Located in the world’s most
sought after destinations, Conrad’s hotels and resorts offer a
wide-range of services and connections, so that planners can weave the
local culture, cuisine, and activities into their guests’ experience.
Boasting
the luxury hospitality segment’s first pre check-in feature, the Conrad
Concierge mobile app, which has been downloaded by 180,000 users to
date, provides guests with a range of customizable options before and
during their stay. Guests can select their pillow preference, what
newspaper to be hand delivered daily, or even from a bespoke list of
high-end bath products to be ready in their room or suite prior to
arrival.
