SINGAPORE – WorldHotels has launched a Japanese version of the worldhotels.com website.
It is the first Asian-language version of the website for the Europe-based global hotel group for independent hotels and regional hotel brands.
“This marks the importance of Japan as a key feeder market for our portfolio of almost 500 affiliate properties in more than 300 destinations and 70 countries worldwide,” said Roland Jegge, vice president, Asia Pacific for WorldHotels.
The Japanese version is the fifth language site since the launch of worldhotels.com in December 2007.
The existing language versions include English, German, French and Spanish. A Chinese version of the website is being developed.
Worldhotels.com has been redesigned and now features a booking process, videos, hotel reviews, weather forecasts and maps.
WorldHotels also offers a dedicated portal, worldhotels.beconnected for travel agents.
Those who register will receive trade discounts, information about commission payments for their bookings and a regular newsletter.
