Sabre has signed an agreement with the
Kyoto-based Hotel M’s, to help the chain expand its geographic reach
and attract more international guests as Japan eases border
restrictions.
The deal will enable Hotel M’s to put its inventory in
front of hundreds of thousands of travel agents globally across
all major Global Distribution Systems (GDS) through Sabre
Hospitality’s innovative SynXis platform.

“We want more people to know about Kyoto and to
love the city as much as we do, and we want all of our guests to
come back again and again,” said Kohei Otsuki, President of Hotel
M’s. “Our philosophy when it comes to true hospitality is
to look outside of services that are traditionally thought of as
within the bounds of the hotel. We think about the entire city as
a hotel. So, it’s vital to us to have a technology partner who
will enable us to expand our geographic reach while sharing a
forward-thinking vision of hospitality retailing that goes beyond
the hotel room.”
Established in 2014, Hotel
M’s
has 16 properties across Kyoto city, with a combined total of
1,274 rooms.
“Our Sabre recovery data clearly shows that as
soon as borders re-open and markets open up, there’s an influx of
inbound and outbound tourism, so we expect that as soon as it is
possible to travel to Japan, there will be a huge demand to do
so,” said Frank Trampert, Senior Vice President and Global
Managing Director of Community Sales for Sabre Hospitality. “It’s
essential hoteliers have the right technological tools to put
their offers in front of global markets, and we’re very excited to
be working with Hotel M’s to enable them to capture and create
future travel demand at this key moment for Japanese tourism.”
