For them, PressReader offers countless business titles to keep them on their toes. Others choose their hotel for comfort and entertainment, and those guests know they’ll have access to PressReader while they lounge, dine, and rest.
And for the socially responsible traveler, PressReader is a zero-waste product that dramatically reduces your hotel’s environmental footprint while saving operating costs — and your guest’s conscience. No matter what kind of traveler walks through your doors, PressReader has them covered.
We know you’re focused on keeping operating costs down and running your hotel efficiently.
It would be impossible to provide every title your guests want to read in print, and even more difficult still to manage all the necessary delivery and recycling logistics.
Going digital means you get to offer more selection for your guests — effortlessly.
How does PressReader help my hotel improve or achieve a higher Forbes Travel Guide rating?
Forbes Travel Guide recognizes newspapers and magazines as essential part of the luxury guest experience. In order to be rated as a 5-star hotel, Forbes Travel Guide requires that hotels include digital newspapers and magazines as part of the hotel’s amenities. That’s why offering PressReader to your guests can take your hotel to the next level.
Right away! Our publishing partners send us their titles to feature on PressReader as soon as they’ve been approved and sent to print. So you’re getting your hands on content in real-time, even before it hits the newsstands.
Glad you asked. Our pricing varies depending on the size of your hotel because we base our service fees on a per room basis. We also take into consideration the projected usage.
As a digital platform that distributes content to every corner of the world, we offer different content to different countries due to locations-specific licensing agreements. It’s for the same reason that some of your favorite streaming platforms have to limit which content appears in which countries. For example, someone in London will have different content options than someone in New York — because every region has its own ever-changing distribution rights. This is to ensure our publishers maintain control over the work they work so hard to create.
You sure can. Just click here to get 1-week of unlimited PressReader access.
