What does "Recommended Spend" mean?
Rather than using a fixed amount per night as a company's travel policy rule for hotel stays such as "all hotels globally must be under $200 per night," the Recommended Spend is a more accurate and flexible approach that Melon uses to cleverly guide travelers to make smart budget decisions for their business travel, giving the traveler more insight and transparency and helping the company better control their travel spending.
Melon's Recommended Spend takes the search results for a specific city over specific dates and provides the user with a data-backed hotel budget recommended for what they should realistically expect to spend per night on a hotel for that specific trip, based on their company's preferences.
This dynamic and intelligent approach to travel policy takes multiple factors into consideration including your company and your specific travel group's policies and preferences to ensure that travelers can make smart decisions based on their company's travel guidelines.
