Genares Signs Treasure Island Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas

Genares Worldwide Reservations Services, an industry-leading reservations services company, has added The Treasure Island Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas to its roster of hotels and casino resorts.

The Treasure Island Hotel and Casino, also known as TI, is a four-star casino and resort with 2,885 guest rooms. TI boasts nine restaurants, six bars and lounges, an indoor/outdoor nightclub and Mystère by Cirque du Soleil, offering one of the best values and locations in Las Vegas.

Treasure Island is using HBSi Demand Gateway, which entirely automates the connections between hotel inventory systems, the Global Distribution Systems (GDS) and distribution outlets. Genares technologies provide seamless connectivity to the GDS and access to over 600,000 travel agents using SABRE, Galileo, Worldspan and Amadeus.

The Genares platform was developed in 2005 to deliver customers’ access to an open-ended and customizable GDS operable entirely in-house without third-party reliance. In four short years, the platform has grown to serve more than 3,000 clients, including nearly 2,800 hotels, making Genares the fastest-growing reservations services provider in the world.

“We are excited to strengthen our reputation as a reservations leader by entering the Gaming Industry,” Eugene Harris, President of Genares, said. “Our rapid growth indicates that hoteliers and hotel management companies in all sectors are looking for comprehensive GDS, CRS and PMS connectivity all managed through one source.”
