“Sonder’s launch on the GDS and partnership with leading TMCs is an important step in our expansion into business travel,” said Kristen Ricther, Sonder’s Vice President of Sales. “We know that many travelers getting back on the road for business are prioritizing self-contained spaces with an added level of privacy that feels removed from the crowds. Sonder’s tech-enabled experience, with seamless check-in and 24/7 Concierge services through the tap of a button, delivers exactly that. We’re confident that our flexible, comfortable spaces — all at an exceptional value — are what global businesses are searching for as business travel starts to return.”
Sonder offers a variety of flexible accommodation options — from individual hotel rooms to full apartments, available for one-night or multi-day stays — in 35+ markets and nine countries, including top business destinations like New York City, London, Dubai, Dallas, Toronto, Philadelphia and more. For business travelers and groups booking long-term stays, many of Sonder’s spaces provide a comfortable place to spread out and work remotely, with fully-equipped kitchens, living rooms, multiple bedrooms and en-suite laundry.
With an app-driven experience, travelers can request early check-in or late check-out directly from their phones, and check-in to their unit through the Sonder app — bypassing crowded lobbies completely. Connecting to WiFi is easy with the tap of a button. With teams on the ground in every city, Sonder guests can receive instant guest support through the company’s 24/7 Concierge service via the app.
“As travelers get back on the road, the global businesses we work with are prioritizing safe, comfortable accommodation solutions for their employees,” said Daniel Finkel, Chief Travel Officer at TripActions. “Sonder’s next-generation model is uniquely positioned to provide the types of stays that our customers and their travelers are looking for.”
Sonder’s launch on the GDS and its partnerships with leading TMCs furthers the company’s commitment to corporate travelers around the world, and comes just ahead of the annual RFP process. With a full-time, in-house team of professionals hailing from leading hospitality brands like Hyatt, Hilton, Wyndham, Kimpton and Radisson, Sonder is dedicated to delivering a top-notch experience for those staying in hubs around the world.
