Roomex customers will see a new icon in their accommodation results indicating that we have personally confirmed that the hotel they are booking meets or exceeds the cleaning standards as recommended by the World Health Organisation.
Our customers will be able to click on the new icon and see a detailed report on what measures the hotel has implemented to ensure both guest and employee safety.
Since the start of March, we’ve gone back to the drawing board and rewrote our product road map with one focus - customer safety. This pandemic has re-ranked what we value as important when travelling for work and your Roomex platform reflects that.
As always, our customers are our ‘North Star’ guiding us on what to focus on creating and developing next. Our most recent update was a result of direct customer feedback.
Exactly ⅓ of all respondents to our recent survey agreed that their biggest concern was hotel cleanliness, followed by 20% stating that hotel facilities were their biggest worry. The majority of workforce travellers stated they have no concerns in travelling again, with 54% of people responding with an answer of 7 or above on a scale of 1-10.
For those key workers that had been travelling throughout the pandemic, they shared their biggest concerns. The most common concerns were fears over the rooms not being cleaned adequately, no use of restaurants, and general hotel availability being sparse.
We want to make you feel safe as you get back on the road. We understand your fears, hesitations, and concerns. Which is why we directly responded to your biggest concerns with RoomexClean.
