SmartHOTEL does not offer a direct connection to Metasearch providers but we have some partner sites that offer this
Should you be interested in advertising your hotel on a metasearch provider, you will need to have a link to your hotels own website and an account with the provider.
To appear in metasearch engines and have bookings delivered via the channel manager you will need to connect to one of the following booking sites.
This OTA offers connectivity to most metasearch partners, such as Google, Kayak, Trivago and TripAdvisor. They will also include your property into targeted marketing campaigns to drive direct business and offer GDS connectivity and Online Booking Engine products. You need to be using their booking engine to benefit from this. For more information, please contact us
This OTA is mainly targeted to the German market. You don’t need to sign a contract with this OTA, we will contact them for you and create the connectivity.
Hotels using the Net Affinity Booking Engine can experience seamless connectivity to Google Hotel Ads, Trivago and TripAdvisor meta-search platforms.
It is also possible to have metasearch providers receive data from the channel manager but drive the bookings directly through your hotels' website.
Uses a ‘shadow booking engine’ which we connect to from SmartHOTEL and then that shadow booking engine drives business to the hotels' website.
Wihp will pull all data from the channel manager and then you chose in their system what data you wish to send to the metasearch channels, which in turn drives business to the hotels' website.
