Preferred Hotels & Resorts has just launched its new and innovative Travel Advisor Portal, making luxury travel a whole lot easier – and more exclusive.

Designed with ease and intuition in mind, this game-changing platform aims to empower travel professionals with a comprehensive suite of tools and resources, making it easier to craft unforgettable travel experiences for their clients.

With its user-friendly interface and advanced features, the portal offers priority access to more than 600 luxury independent hotels, resorts, and residences worldwide. What this means is travel advisors can seamlessly make and manage reservations, prepare rate quotes, submit commission claims, and more – all in one place and all in real-time.

The Travel Advisor Portal is a one-stop destination for luxury travel planners to access hotels, book and track reservations, and check on commissions. Agents can enjoy exclusive benefits, including:

• Eligible rates during searches
• Exclusive offers and promotions to elevate client experiences
• Personalised confirmations and room rate details
• Performance metrics tracking through the “My Insights” section
• A comprehensive knowledge base to learn more about Preferred Hotels & Resorts‘ global collection

Plus, agents can tap into a wealth of additional resources through the portal, including helpful links, FAQs, and insider information on the Preferred Hotel Group’s philanthropic efforts and sustainability initiatives, giving them a better understanding of the brand’s values and commitment to making a positive impact.

Preferred Platinum agents will also enjoy a dedicated search page, automatic inclusion of Preferred Platinum rates, and access to Small Social Group Requests – a new feature that allows for immediate confirmation of availability and rates for bookings of up to 15 rooms.

“We are proud to present this exciting new tool, which underscores our commitment to supporting the travel advisor community and enhancing their ability to provide the most unique and unforgettable travel experiences to their clients. We believe this innovative platform will streamline their workflow, making it easier to do business with us by simplifying the process of optimising all that Preferred Hotels & Resorts has to offer – and ultimately drive greater success for their businesses.” – Cheryl Williams, Chief Revenue Officer for Preferred Travel Group.
