Aven Hospitality, Hovr Partner to Bring Video Into Hotel Booking Engine

The integration targets Aven’s SynXis-powered network of more than 35,000 hotels to meet rising demand for video at the point of purchase.

Overview

  • The companies announced that Hovr’s video technology will be integrated into Aven’s Booking Engine to surface immersive content at the final step of the reservation flow.
  • Hovr’s patented no-code platform enables near-instant deployment with a single line of code plus unified analytics and can pull content from sources such as YouTube, Vimeo, TikTok and Instagram.
  • Aven frames the move as a way to help hoteliers improve decision-making, conversion opportunities and guest satisfaction by placing video where bookings occur.
  • The partnership covers properties across all market tiers with management and control housed within Aven’s ecosystem, though no rollout schedule or pilot properties were disclosed.
  • Aven, formerly Sabre Hospitality Solutions, operates the SynXis commerce and distribution platform with 600+ integrations serving hotels in 190+ countries.
