How Hotelbeds’ Partner Accelerator Programme Helps Hotels Succeed from Day One

Getting your rooms booked is more demanding than ever. Hotels spend valuable time compiling reports, struggle to track real-time demand, and face growing pressure to align rates across multiple platforms.
 

Larger chains deal with fragmented data and complex vendor networks, while mid-sized and independent hotels often lack the tools or internal resources to respond swiftly.
 

That’s why a trusted B2B distribution partner is more than helpful—it’s essential. With streamlined access to global markets, reliable placement strategies, and time-saving tools, you can stay competitive without overstretching your team.
 

Our Partner Accelerator Programme is built to support hotels that have completed their onboarding, have at least one direct contract with Hotelbeds, and are already distributing with us — connecting you to high-value hotel guests and providing hands-on guidance to set you up for long-term success.
 

The Partner Accelerator Programme is designed to support connecting you with high-value guests. In this article, we’ll explore how the Partner Accelerator Programme can strengthen your hotel distribution strategy and help you grow.
 

What is the Partner Accelerator Programme?

We call it a ‘partner accelerator’ for a reason—because we work with you like a true partner would. With honesty, clarity, and a focus on your growth, this free programme is built to help you grow your bookings and optimise performance from day one.
 

Once your hotel is set up in our portal, we continue to support you actively. Using market insights, competitor data, and AI-powered analytics, our system identifies personalised opportunities for your property that could generate additional room nights over the next 12 months. These insights are actionable and designed for you to implement independently.
 

Your rooms will be showcased to over 60,000 global travel distributors (agencies, tour operators, OTAs, and airlines, among others). We segment these into 11 distinct types and monitor their distribution to ensure smart rate management and tailored exposure.
 

You’ll also be backed by 1,000+ market-based experts who act as an extension of your sales team. Our aim is simple: to accelerate your performance and bring your full booking potential to life.

How does the Partner Accelerator Programme work?

The Partner Accelerator Programme is available to hotels that are already distributing through Hotelbeds. Once you're up and running, this programme kicks in to help you grow further — combining smart tools, personalised insights, and expert guidance to ensure you get the most out of your partnership with us:
 

• Real-time recommendations in your Partner Portal with guided walkthroughs.
• Weekly emails featuring fresh insights and tailored advice.
• Monthly reports tracking your progress and spotlighting key opportunities.
   

Each month, you’ll see both what you’ve achieved and what’s still possible, giving you a clear roadmap to maximise your performance.

The real impact of having a strategic partner for your hotel

This isn’t just about being visible or increasing bookings. In today’s market, simply having rooms available online is no longer enough. What truly makes the difference is having a partner—one that understands your goals and works alongside you to achieve them.
 

That’s exactly what the Partner Accelerator Programme is built for.
 

With decades of experience in B2B distribution, we at Hotelbeds have fine-tuned a model that does more than just drive volume. It delivers value. We help you attract the customers who stay longer, spend more, and book in advance without undercutting your rates or compromising your brand.
 

Today, over 250,000 hotels worldwide trust us to help them reach 190+ source markets with efficiency and confidence.
 

When you partner with Hotelbeds, you’re not just getting listed—you’re being guided, supported, and seen. The Partner Accelerator is our newest programme, but we’re glad to already support our hotel partners with a wide range of tools, products, and services designed to maximise their bookings, streamline their processes, and increase their revenue.
 

One clear example is the Hotel Onboarding Programme, which guides hotels through each step of the onboarding process and offers practical advice to streamline it and optimise their profile. This ensures hotels are ready to receive bookings as quickly as possible.
 

For instance, Atlantis Alger Air de France, a four-star hotel located in Algeria, benefited from receiving its first international booking within 7 days from Europe, a key target market they’d struggled to access before.
 

Sammy Andaloussi, their Director of Strategy and Operations, said, ‘The support from your agent and the onboarding process were excellent. Receiving weekly emails with clear steps made it easy for me to progress quickly.’
