Relais & Châteaux App for Android

Submitted by: The P.R Team

Since 25 March 2013, the Relais & Châteaux application has been available, free of charge, on Google Play in five languages. After the launch of the iPad version in December 2012, this Android app is another digital revolution for Relais & Châteaux. On smartphones (or via the adaptation for tablets) you can discover an interactive gallery of 15 000 dream photos of the 520 charming hotels and gourmet restaurants of Relais & Châteaux and the promise of idyllic travel, which is bookable in just a few clicks.

The ’Relais & Châteaux’ application catches your eye with a unique panorama view which appears on your first screen, opening up a stunning new world. It awakens your senses from the moment you see or touch the screen. With the ‘Search around me’ icon, a list of the 30 properties closest to you will be displayed through geolocation. ‘Search by destination’ proposes a different navigation by category (continent, country, region…) and/or map. Unless you already know the name of your dream destination! The choice is yours.

You can browse from one hotel entry to the next, with practical tips (local weather and time, access and route via Google Maps, etc.) and fabulous photographs. A real gallery of photos and videos offers you every opportunity to make future plans, to dream of other worlds and share them by e-mail, text message or on your favourite social networks.

Once you have chosen your property, you can book online or by telephone, just as easily as you found it, thanks to a successful ergonomic design.

At the top of the page the icon ‘More’ supports your travelling, with the latest news about the Association and its Members as well as other practical functionalities like a change in language and a currency converter.

From the pages to the windows, browsing takes on a whole new meaning.
