Our story.
The real story of how NightsBridge started is a frustrating last-minute search for a honeymoon booking. After discovering that searching for accommodation in South Africa meant sending an endless number of email enquiries to which few replied (and none in time to save the bridegroom…), the founders – Neil and Theresa Emerick – knew there had to be a better way to book online. And so, NightsBridge was born.
The ‘availability problem’.
The future trend they spotted was that most accommodation booking sites would require available inventory information to make realtime bookings. However, small guest houses, B&Bs, apartments or hotels would not be able to update every site that wanted their information by logging in and out to many different sites, several times a day. Neil and Theresa called this solving the “availability problem”.
Developing solutions.
Ten years later, days before their tenth wedding anniversary, the same last-minute accommodation crisis surfaced. This time, though, they were able to book online, on a smartphone, at 9 pm for arrival the next day. If ever two founders approached business development intending to solve problems they experienced themselves, NightsBridge is a great example.
