Tinggal aims to be the default-operating platform for small hotels

• Offers over 400 accommodation options in more than 16 cities across Indonesia

TINGGAL an online marketplace for hotels, started early 2016 with a mission to provide gold standard budget accommodation in Indonesia.

Tinggal is introducing disruptive technology to bridge the gap between the large pool of budget accommodation and today's user who is technology driven.

The company started less than a year ago with a few hotel partners. It now offers more than 400 hotel and accommodation options with over 3,000 rooms daily in more than 16 cities across Indonesia.

Tourism has become one of the focus areas and a critical priority for the Indonesian government, which is targeting 20 million tourists by 2019.

Tinggal has seized this opportunity by providing rooms in Indonesian destinations such as Bali, Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, Lombok, Bogor, Manado, Yogyakarta, and Malang.

Tinggal co-founder Arjun Chopra said, "We've always believed in the enormous opportunity which Indonesia offers to travellers. Our 100% focus in this market has enabled us to generate 40% more bookings month over month for our hotel partners. This clearly demonstrates the booming budget travel segment in Indonesia.

“There are currently 40,000 small hotels and are expected to grow by 30% plus in the next two to three years. Most of these small hotels are family-run operations that are always struggling with sales, marketing, support, and operations."

Tinggal gives all hotel partners a dedicated interfaces, 360- degree imagery technology along with travel data and trends live from the platform to enable hotel owners to position their properties competitively while helping them collect profits. Tinggal also offers its customers rooms starting from US$10.
