Preferred Hotels & Resorts has announced the launch of its new Travel Advisor Portal, a platform offering travel professionals a suite of tools and resources. With its user-friendly interface and advanced features, the portal offers priority access to a curated collection of more than 600 luxury independent hotels, resorts and residences worldwide—complete with an integrated experience for making and managing reservations, preparing rate quotes, submitting commission claims, and more—all in one place.
Whether exploring Preferred Hotels & Resorts’ global portfolio or managing bookings, the new portal provides a one-stop destination for luxury travel planners to access hotels, book and track reservations for their clients, and check on commissions. The fully integrated platform allows advisors to make reservations with access to eligible rates during searches, as well as exclusive offers and promotions to elevate client experiences. The platform also allows for personalized confirmations, room rate details and included guest amenities, based on agency affiliation. Advisors can also track performance metrics through the “My Insights” section, which offers detailed statistics on active and past reservations, unique hotels booked, total revenue, and total room nights booked.
The tool also offers a comprehensive knowledge base for advisors to learn more about Preferred Hotels & Resorts’ global collection of properties, as well as the benefits of client enrollment and membership in I Prefer Hotel Rewards loyalty program. The portal also contains helpful links, FAQs and other related information, including details behind the philanthropic and sustainability initiatives of Preferred Travel Group.
Additionally, Preferred Platinum advisors will benefit from a dedicated search page that lists Preferred Platinum hotels and amenities, as well as automatic inclusion of the Preferred Platinum rates when sourcing hotels—further streamlining the booking process for top-tier clients. A new feature, exclusively available to Preferred Platinum travel advisors, is Small Social Group Requests, which is managed through the Preferred Hotels & Resorts’ VIP Desk. This program allows for immediate confirmation of availability and rates for bookings of up to 15 rooms with no meeting space required, at selected participating properties.
For more information and to register for the portal, visit TA.PreferredHotels.com. Additionally, travel advisors can still book client stays via GDS using the “PH” and “PV” chain codes.
