Modelled on ‘Motel 6’ in the USA, the Budget
Motel Chain was established in 1978.
With a steady growth in members throughout
the years, 1993 saw the Chain become
the largest referral Chain in the Southern
Hemisphere.
In 2010, the Chain saw the need to develop
its own channel manager, UseROSS, to aid
its members in keeping up with the growing
number of OTA’s.
Fast forward 8 years and the Chain continues
to look to the future. 2018 sees the
redevelopment of UseROSS, enabling more
channel connections, offering more services
and improved functionality.
