Australia\u2019s largest accommodation group has opened a \u201cone-stop domestic travel shop\u201d on the Internet with the launch of its new Website this month.<\/p>\nThe Golden Chain Motor Inns Website is being developed over several stages, with the new site already being used by guests to plan trips around Australia.<\/p>\n
Chairman of Golden Chain, Mr. John Sheppard, said the group\u2019s goal is to make the new website a very friendly and easy place to plan holidays and business trips.<\/p>\n
It has already improved the way Google and other search engines deliver guests directly to the most important information.<\/p>\n
Mr. Sheppard said the new Website takes advantage of the fact that Golden Chain Motels are All Australian with more locations across the country than any other accommodation provider.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur customers are usually planning trips across the country that will include stays in many locations,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe new website has already been used by guests to plan and book stays that span weeks of travel and include booking advance accommodation online with 10 Golden Chain properties so it is passing initial tests with flying colours.<\/p>\n
\u201cEssentially, the website is an extension of Golden Chain\u2019s commitment to great customer service by making it easier to work with Members \u2013 be it by phone using toll free numbers, e-mail or online booking.\u201d<\/p>\n
Key features of the new Website include:\u2013
\u2022 Easier for Guests to find Member Locations suited to their need,
\u2022 Access to more information about each location including property descriptions, things to see and do in the area, image galleries, pictures and descriptions of each room type,
\u2022 Ability to Check Availability and Pricing as well as make secure enquiries and bookings,
\u2022 Google Maps make it easy to see street and satellite images of the Member location,
\u2022 Embedded Videos that display features of the local area,
\u2022 1800 numbers and links to Member websites to make direct contact easy.<\/p>\n
The group also has extensive plans for the development of the site including:
\u2022 More information about towns and regions,
\u2022 Itineraries to help guests find the most interesting things to do while transiting Australia,
\u2022 User Reviews that will help guests see what other guests thought of Member Locations and local areas,
\u2022 Blogs to help Guests and Members stay informed of the latest information on things to see and do across Australia.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are planning to become a leader in the use of the Web for the benefit of or guests,\u201d Mr. Sheppard said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe see it as the prime means of booking and planning travel in the future \u2013 and we want to ensure that we are the first to provide the best possible service.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
