THE CHALLENGE
Superbude previously faced challenges in managing metasearch campaigns across multiple platforms, including Google Hotel Ads, Tripadvisor, and Trivago. Their campaign management process was complex, time-consuming, and yielded a lower ROI than they achieve today.
The key obstacles were a lack of transparency in campaign performance and the absence of a centralized, user-friendly management tool. By partnering with Cendyn, their primary objectives were to automate campaign management for greater efficiency, streamline operations, and ultimately drive higher ROI across all channels.
THE SOLUTION
Cendyn's Digital Marketing Platform (DMP) provided Superbude with a comprehensive solution to streamline their metasearch advertising campaigns. By centralizing all their campaigns into a single, easy-to-use platform, Superbude eliminated the complexity and time-consuming manual processes that previously hindered performance.
With advanced automation, Superbude was able to optimize campaign management across Google Hotel Ads, Tripadvisor, and Trivago, improving real-time decision-making and ensuring greater transparency in campaign results to deftly adjust strategies when needed.
As a result, Superbude achieved a significant increase in return ROI, benefiting from more efficient operations and enhanced visibility into campaign performance across all metasearch channels for more marketing efficiency.
We are extremely pleased with the results we've achieved using the Cendyn Digital Marketing Platform. It has streamlined our metasearch advertising, making it easier to optimize campaigns, and we've seen a 105% growth in revenue generated. Cendyn has helped us stay competitive and maximize revenue, and we look forward to continuing to grow with them. Diana Avagiani, E-Commerce Manager, Superbude
THE RESULTS
By leveraging Cendyn DMP, Superbude achieved outstanding digital marketing performance in 2024, significantly surpassing the previous year's results.
Return on ad spend (ROAS) soared to 20.3x, marking an 18% increase compared to 2023. Revenue generation more than doubled, growing by 105%, while bookings saw an impressive 101% uplift. Clicks surged by 56%, driving higher engagement, and conversion rates improved by 28%, turning more lookers into bookers.
These results highlight the power of efficient metasearch campaign management within a powerful platform in maximizing direct revenue.

BCD Travel's report reveals business travelers' satisfaction with hotels and other accommodation

UTRECHT, The Netherlands – BCD Travel recently surveyed 1,035 business travelers worldwide to explore their choice of hotels and other types of accommodation, as well as their booking behavior and experiences during business trips. Accommodation preferences Most travelers opt for midscale (3-star) or upscale (4-star) hotels when traveling for business. Hotel location (77%) plays a major role in selecting a hotel, along with employer policy (56%) and cost (53%). Travelers who occasionally stay in apartments say this type of accommodation is more convenient for longer stays, providing more space and the option to prepare meals and do laundry. Searching, booking and paying Over three-quarters of business travelers use their company's online booking tool (OBT) to search for accommodation, while a third turn to hotel websites or apps. When booking, 84% use their company's OBT, one in five book directly via supplier websites, while one in 10 call the hotel. Three-quarters pay with a corporate credit card. Virtual cards are used rarely. Three-quarters of travelers say their employer sets hotel rate limits, one in 10 report no limits and 18% don't know if their employer sets rate limits. A high-performing hotel program is never static. It's a dynamic strategy shaped by continuous rate monitoring, traveler insights and agile adjustments. By embracing dynamic sourcing, travel managers can respond in real time to shifting needs and market conditions, creating programs that deliver savings, earn traveler trust and drive adoption. Teri Miller, executive vice president, Global Client Team at BCD Traveler behavior Personal preferences strongly influence hotel choices: 77% prefer chain hotels with familiar service standards and 73%stay at the same hotel when visiting a destination repeatedly. Wi-Fi and breakfast are the most frequently used hotel services. Other popular amenities include on-site restaurants and bars, parking facilities, fitness centers and flexible check-in/check-out. Travelers also value wellbeing-related features, such as complimentary bottled water, gyms, pools, spas and healthy food options. Travelers favor hotels that help them earn and maximize loyalty points, especially in North America where as many as 99% are members of a hotel loyalty program. Overall, eight in 10 participate in at least one program and many are enrolled in two or more. Two-thirds often or always choose hotels aligned with their loyalty programs. Three-quarters say their employer allows them to keep points earned from business stays, while 21% are unsure. Challenges While seven in 10 are satisfied with their company's hotel policy and preferred suppliers, there's still room for improvement. Common issues include slow Wi-Fi, breakfast not being included in the rate, outdated rooms and uncomfortable beds. A third report no challenges during the booking process. Among those who do, the biggest challenge is insufficient rate limits set by employers. Safety remains a concern. Three in 10 say they didn't feel safe in their hotel location and seven in 10 double-lock their doors when in their rooms. Sustainability Half of travelers rarely or never consider environmental factors when booking hotels. Four in 10 don't take any sustainability elements into account at all. Only one in five look for features like eco-certification, reduced single-use plastics, low carbon emissions, water-saving measures or limited housekeeping. Hotels may not be the primary driver of carbon emissions in a travel program, but they're still an essential part of a holistic sustainability strategy. Travelers often don't consider sustainability when shopping for hotels because most booking tools lack strong sustainability guidance in that category. We advise clients to embed sustainability into their annual hotel sourcing exercise and then clearly communicate expectations and targets back to travelers to help them make better choices.

Shiji Releases Q2 2025 Guest Experience Benchmark: Global satisfaction hits record high

BARCELONA, Spain, July 17, 2025 – Shiji, the global leader in hospitality technology, has announced the release of its Q2 2025 Guest Experience Benchmark, highlighting steady global gains in guest satisfaction, driven by consistent performance across property tiers and key regions. Highlights from Q2 2025: The Global Review Index (GRI) reached a new record of 86.9%, with May peaking at 87.0%, continuing an upward trend that began in late 2022. 3-star hotels saw the strongest improvement in satisfaction scores, rising +0.6 percentage points, outpacing the growth of 5-star properties. Review volume increased only +0.4% year-over-year, impacted by significant declines in North America (–3.0%) and Europe (–1.2%). Google review volume jumped 10%, but with no corresponding increase in guest sentiment, while and Agoda saw declines in both share and volume. The industry-wide push for faster, more consistent review responses continues, with average response times now just 3.1 days, down from 14 in 2019, thanks to the widespread use of AI tools. 'It's encouraging to see the Global Review Index continue its upward trend, especially driven by consistent gains in 3- and 4-star properties,' said Bruno Saragat, Sales Engineer at Shiji. 'However, the decline in review volume across North America and Europe, despite increased travel, signals a shift in guest behavior and review patterns. With rising expectations around cleanliness and room quality, it's clear that hoteliers will need to stay agile and focused as we move into the peak season.' Despite a turbulent global geopolitical situation, guest sentiment continues to trend positively, especially in North America and the Middle East. The data points to rising expectations around cleanliness and room quality, highlighting where hoteliers can focus their efforts for the rest of the year. Shiji's Q2 2025 Guest Experience Benchmark draws on millions of reviews from hotels worldwide and provides hospitality professionals with actionable insights into shifting guest behavior and performance benchmarks.
