Mysuru: Hotel Owners’ Association and Hotel Owners’ Association Charitable Trust had organised a meeting of owners of lodges, resorts and service apartments at Kuthethur Seetharama Bhavana in Krishnamurthypuram yesterday to address the problems with commission percentage of Online Travel Agents (OTA).
Addressing the meeting, Trust President Ravi Shastri said that OTAs like OYO and Make My Trip were deducting a commission of 25 to 30 % from the hotel bookings and remitting the balance to the hotels. He contended that sometimes a huge discount was offered by the OTAs and added that coupled with commission it was a huge loss to hotel owners.
