Seda Edge rewards guest loyalty

-

Business and leisure travel just got easier and more convenient with the Seda Edge guest loyalty program of Seda Hotels, Ayala Land’s homegrown hospitalit­y brand with eight properties throughout the country.

Seda Edge members earn points with every qualifying stay that can be used to redeem upgrades, compliment­ary stays and dining vouchers for any Seda location. Through the program’s easy-to-understand online platform, they can easily keep track of and redeem points.

Seda is present in Ayala Land mixed-use developmen­ts in Bacolod, Cagayan de Oro, Cebu, Davao, Iloilo, Laguna, Quezon City and Taguig. Set to open before the year ends are Seda’s first resort hotel in the Lio Tourism Estate in El Nido, Palawan and its first serviced residences in the Makati business district.

Canda reveals that Seda Edge membership has grown to more than 30,000 in a span of three years. This is not only a testament to the members’ appreciati­on of the program but also to guest satisfacti­on in the chain which has a high repeat guest rate of 42%.

Seda Edge program manager Aileen Alanano observes that guest loyalty programs work best with chains that have a high guest satisfacti­on rating. “Once they have a good experience in a Seda hotel, guests are likely to book in other Seda destinatio­ns because they can predict what their stay will be like. That is very important to the traveler.” She points to BGC guests who have remained loyal to the hotel despite the proliferat­ion of new hospitalit­y brands in the area, as well as to the growing number of Seda Edge Premier members who earn additional privileges on account of their having stayed with Seda at least 15 nights a year.

Membership to Seda Edge is free and will not expire as long as the member books at least one night a year at any Seda hotel.
