Booking affordable boutique hotels

Finding the right travel accommodation to suit your company and its budget can be a challenge for any business.

There are endless opportunities in the marketplace from high end large five star hotels, those catering for the business traveller and budget hotels.

Entering the market in June 2009, Four + Four Solutions has created a niche booking service for boutique hotels.

General manager Kevin Watson said the company aims to make corporate travel a more intimate and rewarding experience.

“We provide something you will not find elsewhere and we are about building long-term relationships.  If you’re tired of the predictability of brand-name chain hotels, then you’re like us,” he said. 

“We have collated the most stylish, very affordable and individual hotels in Australia, Paris and Bali, which are all known for outstanding service, reliability and quality.”

Partnerships include Sydney’s The Kirketon Hotel, Altamont Hotel and Fraser Suites, Cosmopolitan Melbourne, The Hatton, Limes Hotel Brisbane and Diamant Hotel Canberra.

“It’s about choosing hotels, which have personality and obsess on the details.  No hotel can become a Four + Four hotel before being subjected to our rigorous review process, nor can they buy their way in. 

“They really suit medium sized businesses who don’t want a corporate experience and enjoy a boutique environment which offers personalized service.”

Watson said Four + Four Solutions doesn’t publish its rates but rather offers the best rates of the day.

“Our customers contact us directly and we secure the best rates we can for them. We are constantly sourcing new product for our customers and are about to increase our accommodation offering.”
