Preferred Hotels & Resorts has relaunched its Meeting Planner website, integrating detailed meetings-specific data with general hotel information.
The redesigned site is now fully accessible through the main Preferred Hotels & Resorts website.
Event planners can now quickly filter by location and essential meeting criteria. Search results immediately surface key venue details, including meeting room size, event room count, total guestrooms, airport proximity, and ideal group size, allowing planners to confidently submit RFPs.
The platform also integrates sales tax, ancillary fees, and other critical details directly into the venue profiles.
Planned updates for 2026 include expanded search filters for elements like group rates, natural light, buyout availability, and room configurations. A cloud-based resource library is also anticipated, offering instant access to menus, floorplans, virtual tours, and space diagrams.
Amy Butterfield, senior vice president, global sales – group, Preferred Hotels & Resorts, stated that the update was guided by insights from the company’s MICE Advisory Board and reflects a “deep commitment to the meetings and events space”.
The refreshed website also fully integrates the I Prefer Planner Program. This rewards programme allows planners to earn five points for every US$1 in actualised room revenue when booking through the Global Sales Team, with the potential to earn up to 500,000 points per programme. Points can be redeemed for free nights, cash + points stays, or reward certificates that can be applied to room rates, dining, and spa services at participating hotels.
