London, England, 10 March, 2016 – MeetingRooms.com, the global marketplace that brings people and meeting space together on-demand, has announced that QHotels has made meeting spaces within its four-star hotels available for customers to book via the MeetingRooms.com online booking tool. The QHotels Group features 26 award-winning hotels located throughout the UK from Scotland to Southern England, and boasts 300 state-of-the-art conference suites and meeting rooms.
MeetingRooms.com is an online marketplace which launched globally in March, 2015 and continues to grow, now boasting over 14,000 meeting and event spaces in 130 countries around the world – including 300 cities and towns within the United Kingdom. The marketplace matches its venue partners’ empty meeting rooms with a rapidly growing demand in real-time, enabling its customers to book professional meeting rooms online, 24/7. The online tool acts like those used to book flights, hotels and restaurant tables, avoiding the hassle of making numerous phone calls and web enquiries usually involved in securing a space. The company launched to accommodate a significant growth in small meetings, a trend brought on by the boom in entrepreneurship and widespread adoption of mobile technology and remote working.
“We are delighted to have partnered with MeetingRooms.com. This is part of our strategy to develop new channels and target new customer groups that will benefit from booking meetings at QHotels, online.
QHotels, AA Hotel Group of the Year 2014-15, an award winning Venue Verdict Large Group Meetings, Conference and Events provider, offers a Total Meetings Package across it 26 four-star hotels.

The QHotels meeting room and event facilities are bolstered by free, easy-access Wi-Fi and dedicated on-site AV experts. The group’s flexible inventory caters to those seeking a small space for meetings with just a few delegates, organisations looking for a larger site to host big events or exhibitions and everyone in between. Their range of Total Meetings Package options were designed to offer an all-inclusive product, covering everything from AV to meals and an event manager, with no hidden costs.
“We’re truly excited to partner with fellow HBAA member, QHotels, to enable a better booking experience for our customers and agent partners. Booking small meetings online is more efficient for all parties, and enables the QHotels team to access new customer channels.”
