US: Extended-stay hotel franchisor My Place Hotels of America has partnered with Grubhub, an online and mobile food ordering and delivery platform.
Guests of My Place can order from Grubhub’s network of more than 365,000 restaurants and convenience stores for delivery directly to the hotel.
Geolocation and QR codes displayed at each property will direct guests to the Grubhub Marketplace. The hotel location and courier drop-off instructions automatically populate at checkout for ease of use.
Guests who also affiliate with their hotel will receive one free month of Grubhub+, the brand’s loyalty program that provides customers access to unlimited $0 delivery on orders of more than $12.
“One of the highlights of travel is savouring the local cuisine and exploring new flavours, and now My Place guests will have the chance to enjoy those options from the comfort of their hotel room without having to pay delivery fees,” said Matt Campbell, COO of My Place Hotels of America. “As the hospitality industry continues to find ways to add customer-focused services and stay on top of what’s most important, convenience is key.”
Rob DelaCruz, vice president and general manager of Onsite Hospitality at Grubhub, added: “When you’re on the road away from home, the last thing you want to deal with is finding great restaurant options in a new place. With this integration, we’re making it easier than ever for hotel guests to get a meal, snacks or convenience items delivered right to their hotel.”
The partnership is available at all participating My Place hotels in the US.
