Bewley's Hotels go mobile with Bookassist Hotel Webapp

Aug. 27, 2010 - PRLog -- The Bewley's Hotel Group has become the first major hotel group in Ireland and the UK to embrace mobile booking technology, using Bookassist's advanced mobile webapp technology. Bewley's Hotels in Dublin, Leeds and Manchester are now bookable on iPhone and Android platforms for customers on the go.

When a visitor goes to www.bewleyshotels.com on their iPhone or Android device, Bookassist's mobile technology automatically redirects visitors to the mobile webapp version of the hotel group's website. Visitors to individual websites for each hotel are similarly redirected. There is no app to download, no app store to visit, and no extra steps or barriers presented to the hotel group's mobile users. The process is seamless and ensures customers get the best experience possible on every platform - whether on desktop or on mobile.

Bookassist's Director of Client Services for Ireland, Paul Dooley, commented on today's launch: "Bewley's Hotels already attract considerable mobile traffic, dominated by iPhone and iPad viewers in recent months. There is clearly an increasing desire among customers for mobile service and Bewley's Hotels have again been ahead of their competitors in moving quickly to meet their customers' needs. We expect the platform to be very successful for them."

Bewley's Hotels can avail of hotel description, photo gallery, customer reviews, mapping and routing information as well as a complete booking process in their new webapp system. The system is also multilingual and can feature as many languages as the hotel or hotel group requires to service their customer base.

A simple, clear and easily-navigable layout, custom made for mobile, is the key to increasing customer satisfaction and conversion. Visit www.bewleyshotels.com on your iPhone or Android phone to get the full mobile experience.
