Restel integration on ReservationHub

Restel is the hotel distribution company of Grupo Hotusa, the Barcelona-based tourism group, and is headquartered in Madrid. In September 2024 it reported a portfolio of more than 130,000 hotels in over 10,000 destinations, about 3.5 million bookings a year and more than 15,000 trade clients in 150 countries.

About Restel

Restel acts as the hotel reservation centre of Grupo Hotusa, a Spanish group active since 1977 that also manages its own hotel brands, such as Eurostars, and represents thousands of independent hotels. Restel was set up in Barcelona in 1982 and has historically been strongest in European and Latin American markets.

As a bedbank, Restel contracts hotels and resells them to travel agencies, tour operators and online channels. In 2024 it reported holding around 4,500 exclusive hotel contracts. It distributes through its own in-house API and through third-party networks: Juniper lists Restel as an accommodation provider connected through Juniper Hub, and Peakwork added Restel to its leisure travel network in September 2024.

Group links give Restel access to Hotusa-managed and affiliated hotels, alongside properties contracted from other chains and independents worldwide. Rates are supplied net, and the travel seller adds its own markup. Sellers combining Restel with other wholesalers usually need hotel content mapping so each hotel appears once in results.
