SOUTHLAKE, Texas, 06 September � SynXis, the

distribution and technology services for hotels around the world, announced
today that longtime customer, Rosewood Hotels and Resorts has expanded
their relationship to include SynXis� international private-label call
center services. Rosewood will now manage all channels through the
RedX�
Distribution Management System including GDS, IDS, CRO, and bookings coming
from their own websites.
Rosewood Hotels and Resorts, a premier manager of ultra-luxury hotels around the world, whose properties include the famed Mansion on Turtle Creek, A Rosewood Hotel in Dallas and The Carlyle, A Rosewood Hotel in New York, is known for their focus on outstanding customer service.
