Through this partnership, hotel brands will be equipped with the insights and digital tools needed to not only map out traveler behavior and their path to purchasing, but also to personalize the experience for website users to boost engagement. The collaboration between THN and Sojern will ultimately support hotels in their recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, through attracting more qualified traffic and influencing those users to book on the hotel website by enhancing their direct booking journey.

"We are really excited to be offering our hotel customers the opportunity to work with The Hotels Network and we have great confidence in the sales uplift our tools will generate together.", said Josh Beckwith, Senior Director of Strategic Accounts at Sojern. "During these challenging times, we are constantly seeking new and progressive solutions to help both THN and our clients focus on conversion rate optimization and personalization. Additionally, informative insights are an excellent asset to any hotel during COVID-19, and more importantly for the sector's recovery."

James Whitemore, Head of Partnerships at The Hotels Network, further comments, "At THN, we are eager to witness the new heights hotel direct bookings can reach thanks to our partnership with Sojern. The best partnerships are those that deliver incremental value to each party's clients, and this new collaboration really does deliver against that principle. Leveraging the combined power of both brands' machine learning technology, our platforms are the perfect match to help hotels strengthen their direct channel when it matters most."
