HotelPlanner has partnered with Spartan, becoming its official hotel partner across European markets, including the UK. The partnership aims to ‘deliver a user-friendly and cost-effective accommodation to more than 500,000 Spartan racers and supporters travelling to compete at one of the 55 event weekends in Europe in 2021.’
HotelPlanner is a technology company that ‘powers the provision of hotel and alternative accommodation to sports teams of all shapes and sizes all over the world.’ The brand holds partnerships with some of the world’s most renowned clubs and franchises in Europe and America, including the Washington Redskins (NFL), USA Triathlon, Perfect Game, PONY Baseball, Babe Ruth League, Triple Crown and United Soccer League.
The partnership will provide special hotel rates to the Spartan community through a ‘personal Spartan search engine’. The search engine compares hotels and offers competitive rates on the market at a discounted price.
“HotelPlanner is delighted to bring Spartan’s competitors and attendees the broadest choice of accommodation at the best value for their money,” said Tim Gunstone, Global EVP Marketing and Advertising.
“We will ensure all of Spartan’s European racers and supporters can get a great and safe night sleep before and after their big event.”
Emily leRoux, Director of Global Partnerships at Spartan, said “Through the creation of new opportunities, joining the Spartan community has never been easier.
“Our mission is to change 100 million lives by creating transformational experiences to help people, companies and teams tear down boundaries and expand what they believe possible. The world is coming back online and people are craving adventure – and with more than 55 event weekends planned in 18 countries across Europe next year, we are eager to help our community experience new race destinations.
“We are excited to work with HotelPlanner, who will make the booking process for racers seamless, allowing our community to focus on crossing the finish line.”
