Mirai Revolutionizes Direct Booking with New Global Booking Engine: Record-Breaking Conversion and Ultra-Fast Speed

Mirai’s new booking engine boosts multi-room conversion by 56% (18% of hotel sales), with sub-2-second load times—even on slow connections—and a design that cuts scrolling by 90% while highlighting key info like final price, cancellation, and loyalty.

 

Madrid, May 22, 2025 — Mirai, the hotel tech specialist focused on boosting direct sales, has launched a new global booking engine designed to transform the customer experience and maximise conversion. This innovative solution delivers ultra-fast load times—under 2 seconds even on slow connections—and achieves 56% higher conversion rates for multi-room searches.

 

One of the biggest improvements is optimising multi-room bookings. While they represent 9% of all bookings, they account for 18% of total sales. The new engine introduces a guided navigation system, allowing users to view all selected rooms in a summary cart and easily modify previous choices. The result: a 56% higher conversion rate compared to single-room searches.

 

Another standout feature is the engine’s ultra-fast architecture, which displays results in less than two seconds—even on low-quality connections such as in airports or rural areas. This speed avoids the typical conversion loss of up to 3% per additional second of load time, ensuring a smooth, frictionless experience.

 

The engine’s design highlights the most relevant information for users, including cancellation policies, final pricing, loyalty program benefits, and currency conversion options. All this is presented in an elegant and simple design and a clear visual interface that reduces scrolling by 90% through intelligently grouped rate cards. One platform, endless booking engines.

 

The new engine also offers key functionalities including:

  • Automatic removal of redundant rates and rate mixing, enhancing competitiveness against OTAs.
  • Calendar with minimum prices shown from the first step to help drive quicker decisions.
  • Fully integrated into the hotel’s domain and design—no redirects or subdomains—ensuring a seamless experience.
  • Support for hotel chains, with searches by brand, destination, or concept.
  • Smart filters that never return empty results and an OTA price comparison tool with rate-matching capabilities.
  • Visualisation of unavailable rooms to create urgency and improve conversion.

 

The engine also strengthens sales recovery in cases of unavailability, offering users alternative dates, waitlists, direct contact options, or suggestions from other properties in the group. These features help recover an additional 0.6% of bookings that would otherwise be lost.

 

In terms of customisation, hotels can tailor everything from the number of results per row to how prices are displayed, including highlighting premium rooms or applying specific promotions. This visual and functional flexibility makes the engine a perfect fit for each property’s strategy.

 

“The booking experience is one of the most critical moments in the guest journey. It must be fast, clear, and reliable—but also intuitive, personalised, and built to convert. Our new engine not only meets these demands—it redefines them,” says Pablo Delgado, Managing Partner & CEO America at Mirai. “This is the result of years of observation, development, and active listening to our hotel partners. We’ve created a solution that truly makes a difference: more sales, a better experience, and seamless alignment with each property’s identity.”

 

Mirai’s new booking engine is now available for implementation across all types of properties—from independent hotels to large chains.
