The Fed Says, “I Want YOU to Report Your Revenue.”

Twenty-one Larkspur Hotels have chosen to participate in the FedRooms program in 2010. Recently, however, nearly a dozen of our hotels were removed by FedRooms for failing to submit the required monthly room night and revenue reporting. To prevent this from happening again, the National Sales Department has begun reporting the numbers on behalf of all Larkspur hotels. Removing this administrative burden from the hotel teams helps ensure that Larkspur salespeople are able to spend their time selling and not generating reports.

While National Sales has taken over the reporting, your hotel should continue to process the participation fees and commissions on each reservation as usual. Payment should be sent by mail to: FedRooms (CWT) Attn: Toni Marple PO BOX 59159, Minneapolis, MN 55459-8238 OR Wire Transfer in CTX format: US Bank Minneapolis, MN FedRooms (CWT). Please include your FEMA # and Report Month in the memo field. The FedRooms hotelier website has a wealth of information available for hotels to distribute to their teams and present to guests upon check in. FedRooms even offers a free webinar series available to anyone who would like to learn more. The next webinar tentatively planned for May, so please email Malinda Hammill for more details. Additionally, our consortia segment Key Account Manager (Cody Hoyer) and government segment Key Account Manager (Alvenia Jeter) are both excellent resources for guidance and assistance. Please contact either of them or visit the FedRooms website to learn more.
