It’s been a frustrating few months for the hospitality industry. As the UK entered a lockdown in late 2020, there was very little indication of when the industry would be able to start trading again. 

In February, the government finally unveiled their road map out of lockdown, giving hoteliers and industry professionals an idea of what to expect once restrictions ease. In fact, since the PM’s announcement, roomMaster Anywhere has seen a whopping 566% increase in guest bookings. 

InnQuest knows that hoteliers need to be equipped with as many tools and resources as possible in order to bounce back quickly.

That’s exactly what we focus on.
