The Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC) has struck a deal with HotelsCombined.com.au, an online hotel price comparison platform, to offer the best deals available to accommodate their event attendees.

MCEC’s Meetings and Events Senior Manager, Frank Scifo said the choice to partner with HotelsCombined.com.au was driven by a desire to give customers a convenient, trusted and instantly bookable accommodation service that also ensures they are receiving the best deals available.

“HotelsCombined.com.au guarantees the lowest price on travel accommodation, providing our customers with significant savings on advertised retail prices. No other comparison platform seems to be able to compete with their savings.

“We’re always looking for ways to assist and simplify the variety of event components our customers deal with, including how they can accommodate their event attendees. This platform has been integrated with our own website and means we can essentially act as a one-stop-shop, offering an instantly bookable accommodation solution” Mr Scifo said.

HotelsCombined.com.au simplifies the accommodation booking process by presenting all the information customers need about a hotel across multiple booking platforms in one search.

Chris Rivett, Head of Marketing at HotelsCombined.com.au said the company were thrilled to be working with MCEC.

“This partnership will elevate MCEC in the convention and exhibition space by allowing it to offer more value to its customers, providing them choice to compare accommodation options and the best price on their stays. We are looking forward to a long and successful partnership together,” Mr Rivett said.

MCEC is also the only centre in Australia to offer on-site accommodation, directly linked to the five-star Pan Pacific Melbourne and the newly adjoining Novotel Melbourne South Wharf, set to open in March 2018 as part of the current expansion project.
