with Growing Hotel Group in China TANGLA Hotel Beijing and HNA Business Hotel Downtown Haikou are first properties in group to implement EzRMS™ BEIJING – 31st August, 2011: Industry-leading provider of SaaS Revenue & Yield Management solutions to the global hotel industry, Easy (Ez) Revenue Management Solutions Ltd (EasyRMS) has moved into one of the largest hotel companies in China, HNA Hotels and Resorts. HNA owns the TANGLA and HNA hotel brands, with properties including: TANGLA Grand Palace, The TANG Hotel, Gardenlane Hotel by TANGLA, HNA Grand Hotel and HNA Express Inn. An expanding company, in 2011 HNA spent €431.6 million acquiring a 20% share of NH Hoteles in Spain. HNA and NH will now build a new company to develop the NH brand in China. HNA also works closely with InterContinental and manages over 20 properties in both China and Europe for its international partners. In a new deal, two HNA hotels are initially implementing the EzRMS™ Revenue Management solution; TANGLA Hotel Beijing and HNA Business Hotel Downtown Haikou. Both, coincidentally, have 380 rooms. TANGLA Hotel Beijing is ideally located next to the Central Government Offices, Financial Street, shopping centres and numerous historical sites. Equipped with deluxe facilities, the professional and friendly staff serve guests from all around the world with typical TANGLA hospitality, ensuring they enjoy a real home away from home. The HNA Business Hotel Downtown Haikou is located at the heart of downtown Haikou, the capital city of Hainan island. The four-star hotel offers a private, tropical garden – the only one of its kind in Haikou - and is only a few steps away from the First Shopping Mall and Ming Zhu Square, and less than half an hour’s drive to Haikou Meilan International Airport or Haikou Railway Station. The hotel strives to provide a warm and friendly service to all its guests, hoping to make their business trips as pleasant as possible. Both properties are deploying the EzRMS™ Core Module, Ez-QUOTE™, Ez-BUDGET™ and Ez-REGION™. An upload interface to HNA’s proprietary PMS is being developed by the EasyRMS team in conjunction with HNA’s technical team in Beijing, and is expected to be completed in early 2012. “HNA Hotels & Resorts is making efforts to build a world-class hotel brand at all times,” comments Raymond Cai, General Manager – Sales & Marketing for HNA Hotels & Resorts. “Considering the business demand and the inexorable trend from the market, we realised that it is very necessary to have an automated Revenue Management tool to help hotel managers complete their daily operations in a more effective way. EasyRMS is the company we feel we can trust to provide us with useful hotel Revenue Management solutions, given their rich experience in the industry.” Christine Liu, Country Manager – China for EasyRMS, says: “This is another fantastic deal and we are very proud to have been given the chance to serve our National Brand Hotel Group and help them strengthen their power from a Revenue Management perspective. We have seen HNA Hotels expand rapidly in recent years and it’s great that the firm has acquired shares in NH, the very well-known Spanish hotel brand, and one of EasyRMS’ long-standing clients in Europe.” “I am confident that these two pilot HNA properties will be happy with what EzRMS™ provides, including updated Revenue Management concepts, strong data support, accurate occupancy & revenue forecasts and optimisation recommendations. I believe they will quickly see a return on their investment, and our team is looking forward to welcoming more and more hotels from the group to work with us.” About HNA: HNA Hotels and Resorts group is one of the largest hotel companies in China and is involved in both hotel construction and operation. The Group has full ownership of all TANGLA brands and also works closely with international hotel brands, having over 20 properties under management contract.
