Hogg Robinson Group (HRG), the world class corporate travel services company, won both the Accommodation Category for its HRG Hotel Audit Consultant, and the Business Travel Management Category for SIMPLY HRGTM, at the Business Travel & Meetings Show Innovation Awards held at Earls Court in London this week.
HRG was awarded the Accommodation Category for its HRG Hotel Audit Consultant service, which assigns a dedicated and experienced team of hotel consultants to each client account, and is a recent addition to HRG’s existing strong hotel capabilities. The team works closely with clients to tighten up their hotel programme and generate additional savings on accommodation spend.
HRG was also awarded the Business Travel Management Category for SIMPLY HRGTM which is a travel management service dedicated to small and mid-sized companies. It gives smaller clients the ability to achieve cost savings and take control of their business travel spend by using HRG UK’s negotiating and buying power, which provides access to reduced fares and rates.
Stewart Harvey, Commercial Director at HRG, said: “HRG Hotel Audit Consultant service has provided another dimension and valued service for our clients, and through SIMPLY HRGTM better value has been offered to small and mid-sized companies. We were delighted when last year we won the coveted Accommodation Innovation Award for our UK Hotel Service. To be able to add the Accommodation Category and Business Travel Management Category awards is an honour and a real recognition of our innovative approach.”
