New Collaborations Grant Member Hotels Access to Industry-Leading PMS Technology
Curator Hotel & Resort Collection (“Curator”) today announced preferred partnerships with Infor, Oracle, and Stayntouch, to provide Curator member hotels access to leading cloud-based property management systems (PMS). Curator members can increase service levels and operational visibility through these platforms, reduce costs, and deliver personalized experiences that leave guests craving their next stay.
“As the hotel industry continues to adapt and emerge from the pandemic, dependable, efficient, and nimble PMS systems are critically important to the overall success of independent hotel operators,” said Austin Segal, Curator’s Vice President. “Our partnerships with the leading PMS providers allow our members to grow their operations and innovate more than ever before. Modern and open APIs, intuitive user interfaces, and mobile capabilities quickly become table-stakes. Our preferred providers are ready to provide best-in-class solutions for our members, enabling them to deliver exceptional service to their guests.”
Infor
Infor’s Hospitality Management Solution (HMS) is a cloud-based platform designed to increase visibility and intelligence, allowing hotels to serve guests the way they want to be served. The PMS is also fully deployed in the cloud and scalable, allowing hotels to focus on growth. Infor’s HMS is a next-gen system that integrates seamlessly with popular industry software like RMS Solutions and POS.
“Infor is proud to be named a preferred partner for hospitality management solutions for Curator’s independent hotel members,” said Jason Floyd, General Manager, Infor Hospitality. “Infor applications are created for hoteliers of every size. While we understand that every property is unique, we still know that the number one goal is creating a memorable guest experience. Our cloud-based property management solutions will provide the Curator hotel network with proven solutions to exceed guest expectations and create a better hotel management experience.”

"Oracle Hospitality is thrilled that Curator member properties will have access to Oracle’s completely modernized, fully mobile, cloud-native property management suite, including intelligent upsell, sales and event management, loyalty and distribution modules. With the most robust catalog of integrations and a modern platform with an industry-leading 3,000+ rest APIs, the OPERA Cloud suite is certain to meet the needs of all Curator hotels – large or small, luxury or focused service, domestic or international.
