Online, September 20, 2011 (Newswire.com) - HotelTravel.com has added RateGain's Channel Management solution, ChannelGain, as its latest connectivity platform as the company continues to assist its hotel partners to expand options that ensure rate parity.

HotelTravel.com Chief Information Officer, Olivier Dombey, said: "HotelTravel.com understands the importance of maintaining consistent hotel room rates; variance only encourages online consumers to continue searching for other deals, not booking hotels.

"RateGain is considered a leader in the hospitality industry channel management and is very well respected. HotelTravel.com is delighted to have the opportunity to work together them," Mr Dombey added.
