one of the largest online travel investments of the year in europe , after the opodo deal , has closed with palamon capital partners taking a majority stake in engrande , owner of budgetplaces .
barcelona , january 17 , 2017 – edreams odigeo announces today it has acquired the barcelona - based business budgetplaces . com , a hotel booking site that provides customers with access to accommodation around the world .
as solvent sale of budgetplaces was completed to travel group edreams - odigeo . bdo was able to deliver a strategic premium for this asset for value significantly in excess of earning based valuations based on recent trading under - performance .
the company has since grown to include around 7 , 000 hotels around europe and has a network of 30 city websites such as london30 and amsterdam30 . the flagship brand is the budgetplaces site and the company has offices in barcelona , new york and dublin , with 85 staff .

palamon capital partners , one of europe’s leading mid - market private equity firms , has acquired a majority stake in engrande , a leading european on - line booking business focused on the budget accommodation sector . the terms of the transaction were not disclosed , however , palamon will hold a majority stake in the business .
palamon’s investment in engrande is based on the strong growth dynamics of the on - line travel agent market . the european hotel sector generates sales of €85 billion per annum of which on - line bookings currently account for around €14 billion but are growing at more than 14 % per annum . the european budget accommodation sector itself is currently worth approximately €15 billion per annum and is rapidly growing due in part to the expansion of low cost carriers . the fragmented nature of accommodation suppliers and their low penetration on - line presents engrande with a strong opportunity to accelerate the growth of its network of providers and become the leading player in the budget market .
commenting on the transaction , founder and ceo of engrande john erceg said : “we are delighted to partner with such an experienced growth investor as palamon . their understanding of the on - line retail space and analysis of our business convinced us that they could provide the strongest strategic support to help us achieve our ambitious growth plans . a key part of the growth plan is a shared commitment to delivering the best choice of cheap , central , clean and safe accommodation to our customers . engrande is passionate about helping its online customers save money on their travel accommodation and helping hoteliers fill their rooms profitably . ”
fabio massimo giuseppetti , partner at palamon capital partners commented : “we are excited about partnering with john and his management team through our investment in engrande . the conclusion of this transaction is the culmination of an extensive amount of research into the on - line travel agent sector . the internet has yet to transform the budget accommodation sector in europe as the low cost supplier base is still highly fragmented and many owner operated establishments have yet to embrace the on - line world . ”
jaime - enrique hugas , principal at palamon capital partners commented : “engrande is a strong platform from which to build a niche market leader . the company addresses a fundamental market need by offering today’s cost conscious consumer its network of over 7 , 000 cheap , central and clean establishments in europe and in selected cities globally . engrande’s has a truly differentiated offering in the budget accommodation market . we look forward to working with john and his team . ”
palamon has a strong track record in partnering founder - led businesses and providing strategic and financial support through periods of accelerated growth . in 2007 the firm invested in european on - line fashion retailer , dress - for - less , and during its ownership grew revenue and profitability by more than 35 % per year . the business was sold in march 2011 to privalia , headquartered in barcelona . in december 2010 palamon sold its majority stake in loyalty partner , europe’s largest loyalty programme , to american express in a transaction valued at more than €500 million . the founder - led company , which was acquired by the firm in 2005 more than doubled revenue and profitability during palamon’s ownership .

sounds like it is not worth the exercise . . . . . . . or at least the methodology should make one gunshie .
we do absolutely not apply the practices mentioned : on our website , we do show ' from ' prices , it is up to our hoteliers to ask for higher prices , especially during high season .
by choosing e . g . gbp on the upper part of our website , all prices will be shown in gbp , with the local currency shown in brackets .
urltoken says it will refund my 15 euros if i improve or delete my ratings , so i deleted my previous posting and am making an amended posting . i think they should make clear immediately that the price has gone up and that the payment will be in the local currency . urltoken shows when there has been a change in the hotel rooms immediately , so it is possible to do that . i shouldn ' t have to make all these complaints to get my 15 euros back .

my experience was hampered a bit by some inconsiderate roommates , which isn ' t the fault of the hostel , but i found however that about half the staff was friendly , and the other half was inattentive and rude . i understand staff has to come in and at least make beds for incoming guests , but a staff member came in and did a very loud full clean of the room while several people were still trying to sleep , even though you have the option as guests to put a note on the door saying if you would like the room cleaned or not . they also have a staff member come in unannounced to make sure people have checked out , this person often just comes in , doesn ' t say hello or anything , and leaves , so the first time this happened i was a bit confused . normally the front desk keeps track of this when they have guests return keys rather than barging into rooms ? when i checked in , the woman i was speaking to was quite rude , and when she finally finished checking me in she didn ' t say anything and i stood there thinking there was something else until she said ' that ' s all ' and didn ' t look up from her computer . not sure what other people are talking about when they say it ' s the best location , i found it quite out of the way from the city center , and there aren ' t really many convenient places nearby . the facilities themselves weren ' t bad , but i wouldn ' t come here again . side note : the breakfast is the most expensive breakfast i ' ve ever had in a hostel , where i ' ve had equal breakfasts in other hostels for free . i would recommend bringing some food with you or getting some from the grocery store .
dear guest , thank you for taking the time to share your feedback . it is too bad that your other roommates ruined your stay with us . i believe that since you were in a dorm room that constantly hosts different guests at different times , there is even more pressure for our cleaning staff to clean all the rooms in time for check in . unfortunetly , we wish keeping track of the room cards was enough to make sure our guests have checked out but there always those who disregard out check out time and or leave their key in the room and not check out with us . it sounds like these disruptions are not as smooth as it could have been , sometimes our staff enters a room not wanting to bother the possible sleeping guests so they say nothing . we are sorry that we didn ' t check you out in the best manner and while our breakfast price is fairly high , it does correspond with the variety and current prices of food in brussels . we work hard to deliver an exceptional guest experience , and it ' s apparent in this case that we fell short . if you give us a chance to earn back your trust , we can assure you that we will do our best to give you the great hotel experience that so many of our guests have grown so fond of . sincerely , your meininger brussels team
dear georgia , we are glad that your stay here was mostly satisfying . every reviews help us improving the place and the way guest feel her . it is even better when it is positive : ) hope to see you next time in a meininger . brussels team
cannot rate this hostel high enough ! price was good , wasnt expecting too much . i was blown away with how good . modern design , well set out , great equipment ( hairdryers in bathrooms ) , fabulous kitchen , great staff . . . . made brussels great ! stay here ! ! !
