To become a partner of Escapeaway, we will arrange a visit from a Escapeaway representative. On this visit our representative will bring a fact sheet, which is filled out on location and often we will conduct an interview with you or someone from your staff. The reason for this is that we always need information for our personal descriptions of your hotel. Please note that it is not a demand from us to stay in your hotel, have a meal or anything else during our visit. The main objective is to gather information for the hotel description and to see the property.
