Singapore, November 16, 2016 Hotelbeds Group, the business-to-business provider of services to the travel industry globally, has continued its winning streak with its second consecutive award within one month: the Best Travel Wholesale Solution at the 9th TravelMole – ITB Asia Awards – widely seen as one of the most prestigious recognitions in the travel industry, not least as it is chosen by votes from readers.
