Vancouver’s 4-Diamond Hotel Le Soleil has renewed with Pegasus Solutions for multiple products and services, including the award-winning RezView NG central reservation system (CRS) and representation with Utell Hotels & Resorts. The hotel will also continue leveraging Pegasus for distribution to the global distribution systems (GDS) and online channels, as well as Global Commission Processing Services and private label voice services.

Situated in the heart of Vancouver’s financial district, Hotel Le Soleil is an ideal location for both business and pleasure. It is located near the Capilano suspension bridge, Kitsilano Beach, and breathtaking views of Grouse Mountain. The all-suite hotel features the two-story Copper Chimney Restaurant, and a complimentary business centre, meeting room and concierge.

“Vancouver enjoyed the attention of the world when we hosted the Winter Olympics in 2010,” said Joe Dias, general manager of Hotel Le Soleil. “In leveraging many of Pegasus’ offerings across all of our channels – agents, GDS, online and voice – we expect Hotel Le Soleil to enjoy the attention of international bookers considering Vancouver as a destination.”

With RezView NG, Hotel Le Soleil will be able to utilize dynamic packaging for in-room, on-property and external products. With full automation of external data updates and 100% Web delivery, the CRS also helps hotels manage costs and save time. It has the ability to be global or local, supporting seven currencies and languages through its property management module.

“It’s immensely rewarding when a customer taps into the combined potential of our reservation, representation and distribution offerings,” said Mike Kistner, chief executive officer of Pegasus Solutions. “Hotel Le Soleil has done this, and as such, demonstrated a sound understanding of how to attract the most bookings, which means being available across all channels, and having the tools and campaigns in place to capture those bookings.”

With Utell, Hotel Le Soleil enjoys the benefits of Utell’s extensive and proven business-generating marketing programs and sales relationships with the majority of the world’s travel agencies, as well as preferred agreements with major TMCs (travel management companies), online distributors, corporations and consortia groups. Hotel Le Soleil also connects to the global distribution systems (GDS) and online channels through Pegasus’ Hotel Switch, which allows the hotel to present rates and availability, and to vividly convey the hotel experience to online travel agencies (OTAs), corporate travel departments and tour operators. Additionally, the hotel will utilize Pegasus private label voice services for professionally trained and sales-focused support in 11 languages for 40 countries.

Pegasus Global Commission Processing offers agents weekly commission payments via check or direct deposit in any of 37 currencies. As the preferred commission payment provider for more than 60,000 travel agencies worldwide, Pegasus processes more than USD 500 million in commissions annually, serving more than 35,000 properties, as well as the majority of travel distributors in more than 200 countries.
