Hotel journalists immediately take note if a hotelier does not like to speak about the occupancy rate.

Of course, this is an unpleasant topic for many, because there are always empty beds - this hurts. However, Hipaway should help. The startup, an unusual new hotel platform was presented at the ITB Berlin by the founder Adrian Graf.

The entrepreneurs describe  Hipaway as a hotel-outlet - just as a factory outlet do distribute a product directly from the production to the end customer at an affordable price, so Hipaway should give outlet room report directly without any detours through intermediaries to end-users. What's new for it?, many may wonder now.
