“Meeting and working with such great people.

The Team I work with are so customer driven and all enjoy working at the hotel, this comes across in the fantastic customer service that is given. Seeing customers receiving this 1st class service makes my role very enjoyable.

With loads of different personalities within the hotel it is never a dull day!”

You have £1m to spend in 24 hours, what would you spend it on?

“Buy a big traditional villa with a pool on the beautiful island of Santorini in Greece, over looking the sea and volcano and big enough for family and friends to come and stay.

I would go to Las Vegas with my husband for a holiday and enjoy the spending in the casino.

I would buy my Mum & Dad a house with a garden so they can retire early and enjoy retirement together.

I would buy a brand new sports car, not sure what one as I know nothing about cars, shoes, shoes, shoes and handbags! If there is any money left, a great big party to share with Family and Friends.”

“Passionate!”

What has been your most embarrassing moment in your career?

Testimonials

What our Customers and Members say about using Infotel “The team at Infotel strive to get the best deal possible and using criteria that we set as a business, deliver time after time to ensure our workforce have suitable places to stay.

As a business we receive one invoice per month which appeases the accounts department and takes way the task of matching individual bookings with credit card/account statements.

The great thing about Infotel is that relationship they have with over 700,000 hotels worldwide. They negotiate the best rates and provide a great place to stay for our people.”

Gavin Hancox - ISG Retail & Hospitality

“That’s fantastic! Another great service from yourself. Will definitely be you using you again in the future.”

Dan Doughty

Mandy Wood

“Infotel is spectacular! This organisation flips all usual perceptions on their head in a continually surprising and dynamic way. Functionality? Brilliant! Customer service? Unparalleled. And while every Infotel staff member has demonstrated consistent excellence, Sarah deserves an extra special mention for “going the extra mile”, working tirelessly to ensure our business never fails.”

White House Apartments

“Quick and simple to use and always a friendly voice on the other end of the telephone.”

Karl Pitman

“Having signed up to use the services of Infotel in March 2015 we at The MacDonald Arms Hotel are delighted with the service this company has provided right from the initial set-up of installing the portal and for on-line reservations via our own company website, of which there has now been a few.

The portal is very straightforward, easy to use and our point of contact Sarah Palmer has been most helpful - even chasing our internet provider for information for on-line set-up!
