Nov. 16, 2004 – After working closely with the Warwick team, Open World created a design that embraces the rich history of Warwick’s hotel collection with user-friendly navigation and content-rich pages.
The home page branches off into individual hotel web sites for each of the 12 company-owned hotels and content-rich pages for 18 of their affiliate members. There are dedicated sections for Meeting Planners to select ideal venues for their events and for Travel Agents to search for trade news and offers.
Additionally, Warwick has joined Open World’s network of travel web sites, which is recognized as the fastest growing direct-connect online distribution channel in the hotel industry. The Affiliate Travel Program drives reservations directly to Warwick’s reservation system, as it has successfully done for over 25,000 hotel brands.
“Warwick International chose to partner with Open World because of the exceptional reputation and proven expertise that they possess in superior design engineering of their established web sites. This solid foundation is supported by their global experience in integrating web site design with global Internet marketing opportunities combined with a proven track record of achieving significant incremental revenue to their client web sites.
From the initial design, discussions through the production process and ultimately to an on-time launch, Open World's staff was cooperative, informative and were truly a responsive team player in redesigning and reengineering what Warwick perceives to be our primary marketing and sales tool and resource. We look forward to the continued development and enhancement of our site with the Open World global team and through the personal assistance of our dedicated account manager who has been instrumental in our new site's phenomenal compliments ." said GPaul LeBlanc, Vice President Sales & Marketing for Warwick International Hotels and Resorts.
