Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group has announced its Asia Pacific initiative of partnering with Accomable, a UK-based global platform that provides specialised information and listings on assisted travel, adapted hotels and vacation rentals for differently-abled and elderly people. Other site highlights include tips such as nearby hotel attractions and travel information vital for all accessible travellers.
Guests can now view and book over 100 of Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group’s Asia Pacific hotels, equipped with accessible guestrooms and facilities, through Accomable’s website. The number of listings is intended to increase, in tandem with impending hotel openings and the group’s expansion plans throughout the region.
“I am pleased that our partnership with Accomable has gotten off on a strong and encouraging start. Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group’s focus on improving the lives of our communities is one of the integral ‘responsible business’ pillars that we constantly support. We are guided by the Carlson credo, and this initiative demonstrates our commitment and dedication in caring and catering for the specially-abled at our hotels,” said Thorsten Kirschke, president, Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group, Asia Pacific.
Srin Madipalli, CEO and co-founder, Accomable, noted, “We are excited to collaborate with Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group and their portfolio of brands. The accessible traveller community welcomes their hotels’ accessible guestroom features, service and hospitality standards that assure safety and comfort.”
Accomable currently offers over 600 accessible properties in over 60 countries worldwide, with plans to increase its listings to 1,500 properties by the end of the year.
