GuestCentric Enables Independent Hotels to Reach Out International Markets

STAMFORD, CT - 02/02/09— GuestCentric Systems
(http://www.guestcentric.com), the premier Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)
provider for the independent hotel industry, today announced further
enhancements to its easy-to-use GuestCentric online booking and
marketing service, including multilingual support for Spanish,
French, German, Italian and Portuguese languages. With expanded
language support and capabilities, GuestCentric can help hotel
operators easily expand their online presence to international markets
to attract new website visitors, increase bookings and online
revenue.

Designed to meet the demands of attracting guests from all over the
world, GuestCentric’s new multilingual support overcomes the need to
rely on custom development of a property’s website for each country.
Hoteliers simply click on the desired GuestCentric-built page to be
translated, add the information in the desired language and the
service automatically places the new page in the website.

“With support for international languages, independent hotels can now
leverage GuestCentric’s service to generate more online revenue in a
struggling travel economy,” said Pedro Colaco President & CEO
GuestCentric Systems. “We continue to work to provide independent
hotels with an easy-to-use, time saving service that uses the latest
technologies to help them level the playing field with large chains.”

“International travelers represent 40% of our online bookings that is
why it was crucial for Memmo Baleira Hotel to offer a multilingual
website,” said Rodrigo Machaz, General Manager at Memmo Baleira
Hotel.  “With GuestCentric’s language support, publishing our website
in different languages was really easy. Once we had the hotel’s
information translated, the website was up and running in a couple of
minutes.”
