“Hotels like Sunway that optimize the desktop and mobile booking experience

demonstrate a sophisticated understanding of hospitality,” said Rachel Grier, senior vice president of global sales, Asia and the Middle East for Pegasus Solutions. “They realize that selling hotel rooms is not a passive process, but an active strategy that requires effort and continued attention. In addition to being available globally with Pegasus Connect+ Premium, Sunway has also bolstered its unique online presence and experience.”
