Level up from agent to super agent with RateHawk

Finding the ideal accommodation is one of the most common yet time-consuming tasks for travel agents. Access to a wide range of options is essential but navigating them efficiently is just as important. RateHawk offers a diverse portfolio of 3,2 million accommodation options, helping agents quickly and easily find the ideal stays for their clients.

Millions of options

RateHawk's inventory is aggregated from over 350 global hotel wholesalers and destination management companies (DMCs), alongside 250 000 directly contracted hotels. The platform covers over 200 countries and territories, offering everything from well-known hotel chains and boutique hotels to apartments, campsites, villas, and even castles.

Navigating such an extensive selection of accommodation can be challenging. However, RateHawk's smart search system makes it much easier to find and book the right property.

Filters for smarter choices 

With over 50 search parameters, RateHawk's intelligent search system helps agents find suitable accommodation in minutes. Whether searching by price range, hotel rating, location, amenities, or specific requirements, travel professionals can easily narrow down their options to find the right match for their clients' needs.

Two of the most commonly used filters are ‘Price’ and ‘Property type’, which help agents find suitable accommodation that fits their clients' budgets and preferences.

The Smart Sort function prioritises hotels based on user preferences, booking history, and real-time data, helping the most relevant options appear first. If a preferred hotel is unavailable, the smart recommendation service automatically suggests similar alternatives.

To help agents make informed decisions, RateHawk provides access to millions of verified reviews from Tripadvisor and other online travel agencies (OTAs). By using the ‘Clients' Reviews’ filter, travel professionals can make more informed accommodation choices.

Navigate the map

RateHawk's map search feature offers advanced location-based search capabilities. The flag tool lets agents mark a location and search for accommodation within a set radius. This feature is especially useful for business travellers attending conferences or trade fairs, as agents can mark an exhibition centre and find suitable nearby hotels.

RateHawk's map search also includes a ruler tool for measuring distances between locations, helping agents assess how far a property is from key destinations. The street panorama view further enhances the search experience by allowing agents to explore the surrounding area before booking.

With access to an extensive accommodation portfolio and a range of smart digital tools, RateHawk empowers agents to meet diverse client needs, build stronger relationships, and stay competitive in an ever-evolving travel market.
