Industry Trends

Customer Service is King.	Just as the hotel industry raced to roll out competitive luxury bedding products, the corporate housing industry is experiencing increased demand from travelers for luxury amenities and services. Corporate housing is positioned to serve these consumer needs with outstanding properties that offer state of the art gyms, pools/spas and similar resort style features. Couple these facilities with exceptional service and the added space and freedom of an apartment - an ideal accommodation is delivered.
Globalization Leads to Increased Culture Awareness Training.	Sixty percent of companies provided cross-cultural preparation in 2005 and it is mandatory at 26% of these companies. Seventy three percent of travelers rated cultural preparation as having great or high value. BridgeStreet provides complete assimilation services to our international guests, ensuring their stay is as comfortable and productive as possible.
Supplier Management Becomes Trickier.	Many travel businesses contend favorable market conditions afford them leeway to raise rates. BridgeStreet has developed easySourceTM - a proprietary supplier management technology that bids out business travel needs to gather and compare best pricing for corporations.
