With a range of improvements to our Mercure branded websites we are forever improving the functionality available to our Mercure clients, while maintaining beautifully branded designs, faster page load speeds and support across mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets including iPhones and iPads.

Built to Industry Web Standards

All new website are built with HTML 5 and CSS3 Browser Support with W3C compliance.

With Internet Explorer 6 slowly being replaced by alternative internet browsers, we are finally able to support new technologies in our coding.  This allows the use of advanced features with today's industry level standards demanding a high level of quality and excellence.

Cross-Mobile Device Support (Smart-phones and Tablets)

All our websites are viewable across all mobile devices such as iPhones & Android devices and iPads and other tablets. This includes all website animation and customer interaction effects.

Mercure clients have an option for a mobilised version of the website which supports click to call functionality and is integrated into the content management system. The mobilised site is a scaled-down version of the entire site with complete control over which specials and packages are displayed.

We can also provide guests with our custom “Get Directions from Here” feature which provides them with directions from their current location anywhere in Australia to the hotel or resort.

Incontext Editor - Make changes on the fly

The In-Context Editor allows you to edit your website on the fly. You can walk through your all your pages and make changes on the actual page.

The system automatically locks out sections of the website and allows you to only edit editiable content areas of the site so you don't need to worry about breaking anything.

The easy to use WYSIWYG easliy allows you to make changes without having to know HTML code or have any website experience at all!

With the duplicate region feature you can easily duplicate content areas of the website and just replace any text or images.

Multiple Social Media Integration

With the integration of RSS feeds into the CMS, we can automatically publish specials, news, announcements and events to a variety of social media tools including Twitter and Facebook.  

Google Analytics and Revenue Tracking

Through Google Analytics we have complete tracking integration including revenue tracking where you can measure actual sales through the website and supported 3^rd party booking engines such as SiteMinder’s Booking Button and Levart’s Hotel Booking Tool and soft measurements for bookings through the Accor Booking Engine.

Pebble Mailer Integration

All sites are now fully integrated into our Pebble Mailer Email Marketing system which offers advanced campaign management and campaign reporting with a simple and easy to use tool.

Data Integration via Intouch Data

If you are using Intouch Data as your data management provider for reservations and email subscriptions, Pebble Mailer can consolidate your data automatically, meaning accurate subscription information and less manual entry.

eTrigger Support via Pebble Mailer and InTouch

eTriggers allows automatic delivery of confirmation emails from your reservation system through the In-Touch Data Arc system. All customer interaction is tracked and you can cross promote current events and packages across the site through this one system.

Event Bookings and RSVP

The Event Bookings Module in a list or calendar format allows you to manage RSVP’s for events, assigning capacities and taking bookings for dining events, VIP promotions and anything where you need to manage numbers.

This includes pre and post auto-responders that sends guests a reminder before the event and then automatically asks for their feedback after the event.

Secure Certificate & E-Commerce Integration

With secure certificates your customer’s personal data is encrypted and protected when making purchases through the website, which can either be processed manually in-house or automatically through the website.

Gift-Vouchers

Through the e-Commerce module you can easily create gift vouchers with the ability to upsell anything from room upgrades or additional purchases such as champagne & chocolates on arrival to tickets to the latest musical.

PCI Compliant and Certified

Our E-Commerce System is PCI Compliant which is a worldwide information security standard defined by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council and now becoming the standard of transacting credit card details on the web.

Image Gallery Management & Image Autosizing

Manage the image slideshow on each page easily through one simple module without needing to resize or crop images. In fact, any images added through the website are automatically resized meaning less administration for you.

Global Web Apps

The new Global Web Apps module allows you to control specials and packages easily across the website, by assigning it to the areas you want through one module. You can have the same package appear in multiple places across the site or only in one area, including home page promotions and the mobile website.

This, combined with release and expiry dates, allows you to automatically control when your promotions appear and get removed from the site without having to go back in after the promotion has finished.

Awesome New Modules

Frequently Asked Questions

With the FAQ’s module you can quickly create a wealth of information regularly asked by guests, thereby freeing up your reservation staff. Additional comments can be submitted and approved which can also be automatically added as an FAQ onto the website.

Guests can leave their feedback, reviews and comments though the website where you can publish them live for other customers to see.

With the media and press release functionality you can create and manage images, SEO optimised links and hotel information for your media sources and other partners to use on their websites. This allows you consistency with imagery and content across the web for your hotel and helps to improve your page ranking.

Accor Supported Banners

With the use of our purpose built webapp and ad-rotator, you can now easily add any type of Accor supplied promotion to the website. Assign Flash or Static banners to the home page or other areas of the site easily and quickly.
