Celebrity Cruises launched a new hotel program that streamlines and enhances the booking process for pre- and post-cruise stays. The program also provides a curated list of upscale hotels with exclusive rates.
Hotels by Celebrity will provide passengers and travel advisors with details about the properties they book, including hotel amenities, services and previous guest reviews.
The online booking system, powered by Priceline, will present accommodations to fit a variety of needs, including proximity to local attractions and the number of guests in the traveling party.
"Travel is meant to eliminate the stress in our lives, and Hotels by Celebrity makes finding the perfect accommodations easy and luxurious," said Brian Abel, Celebrity's senior vice president of hotel operations.
Travel advisors can access the booking engine through Celebrity's Cruising Power platform. The product is not commissionable.
Available hotels include the St. Regis Rome, W Barcelona and the Kimpton Epic in Miami.
Celebrity also offers Flights by Celebrity, an air program that Celebrity says offered the best rates and around-the-clock support.
