All AccorHotels guests can use Business Check new feature

News

All AccorHotels guests can now enjoy a new feature, Business Check powered by LinkedIn, in order to create and facilitate business opportunities. The platform is very relevant as it offers the possibility to connect the guests with people in their professional network who are based in the city they are in and suggesting relevant profiles to connect with. The greatest benefit of using this application is that it enables professionals to stay connected on the move.

Romain Roulleau, Senior Vice President for E-commerce & Digital Services at AccorHotels commented, “This partnership between AccorHotels and LinkedIn is a world first in the hospitality industry. It will enrich the services we already offer on our mobile app which is used before, during and after the stay, notably by business travelers, who represent 60% of the app’s users. This new feature creates business opportunities, and our app will therefore facilitate and foster seamless, instinctive business travel sharing, thus generating guest engagement and visibility for our hotels.”


With Business Check powered by LinkedIn now available on the AccorHotels app, mobile and tablet users with bookings in an AccorHotels establishment can connect to their LinkedIn account and share their next business trip destination with their network in one click, find out which of their LinkedIn contacts reside in the city they are staying in again, see them again or get to know them better and contact them directly using either a personal email or Inmail and develop their network thanks to Business Check powered by LinkedIn’s suggested list of relevant profiles residing in their travel destination.


Joshua Graff VP Marketing Solutions EMEA at LinkedIn commented, “There are over 26 million business travelers on LinkedIn and by partnering with one of the world’s leading travel groups, these professionals can now be even more informed, connected and productive while on the go. We all like to get the most out of our business trips abroad and this new feature will make it even easier to connect with clients, prospects, suppliers and colleagues old and new.”
