With over two decades of experience and strong industry relationships, Contract Hotels leverages significant collective buying power on behalf of our clients. This allows us to negotiate the most competitive rates, concessions, and contract terms available. From discounted room blocks to added amenities, our clients benefit from the kind of advantages that simply aren’t available when negotiating alone.
Our role goes beyond finding the perfect venue. We help mitigate risk by ensuring contracts are fair, balanced, and transparent. By anticipating common pitfalls and addressing them during negotiation, we protect our clients from unexpected costs and contractual challenges, allowing you to focus on delivering a successful event.
One of the biggest advantages of working with Contract Hotels is that our services come at no cost to you. We are compensated by the hotel or venue you ultimately select, which means you gain access to our expertise, industry knowledge, and negotiating power without adding to your budget.
HOTEL SITE SELECTION - OUR CORE SERVICE
Beyond hotel site selection, our team can assist with every element of your program — from audiovisual production and food & beverage to staffing, entertainment, décor, and logistics. With experienced partners and in-house expertise, we help bring together the resources you need to deliver a seamless and memorable event.
We arrange special attendee airfare discounts with major carriers serving your event destination. To support your event marketing, we also provide custom booking links, logos, and collateral that you can easily include with your registration materials.
Through our preferred partnerships with leading car rental providers, we secure discounted group rates for attendees. We also supply ready-to-use materials to make it simple for your guests to access these savings during the registration process.
