Hotel Tech Report co-founder Jordan Hollander greeted GuestCentric’s commitment to independent hotels and boutique brands digital marketing: “Hoteliers recognition of GuestCentric’s contribution to their bottom line is only natural, given that the company has been working for more than a decade to help independent hotels promote their brands and attract customers to book direct”.

The annual awards are produced by Hotel Tech Report, a ratings and reviews platform for hotel technology that aims to empower hoteliers to find the best tech by comparing vendors based on verified customer reviews. GuestCentric customers rated its booking engine a whopping 11% above the category average, and 4.8 out of 5 in ease-of-use, a testament to customers’ satisfaction.
One such customer reviews and testimonials was offered by Mark Kassouf, owner of the Quiet Creek Inn of Idyllwild, California: “We saw an amazing increase of direct bookings through our new brand website. Better still was the increased performance of direct bookings through our new GuestCentric booking engine, which is now three times those of all OTAs combined.”
