September 17–20, 2026 The Cliffs at Walnut Cove  |  Asheville, North Carolina ## Get Booked for Tournament Week The Biltmore Championship Asheville brings fans, groups, and traveling parties to Asheville for tournament week — and they book their stays through the Stayker-powered hotel booking experience for the event. Getting your property in front of them takes **two paths: one with zero work, and one that lets you stand out.** ### Already in the GDS? NO SETUP NEEDED If your property is bookable in Travelport / Galileo, your publicly available rates — plus select consortia rates — are already sellable through the Biltmore Championship Asheville booking experience. Nothing to load. Nothing to sign. [See the Live Fan Inventory →](https://stayker.link/936xi3) ### Want to Stand Out? SPECIAL RATE / PACKAGE Offer a negotiated tournament rate or a Biltmore Championship Asheville package to win more of the demand. This path requires loading your special rate into our system via the GDS — we send you the exact steps once you opt in below. [Offer a Special Rate →](https://stayker.com/c/biltmore-rate-loading.pdf) ## How It Works How we get your inventory ### We sell your GDS rates — automatically Your inventory flows into Stayker's proprietary system, which is GDS-connected (IATA-certified, direct Travelport / Galileo). We sell your publicly available GDS rates and select consortia rates — and by default we sell only the rates that are commissionable and loyalty-points eligible, so your guests still earn their points and the channel stays a clean, commissionable one. If you're already in the GDS, you're in the program for tournament week — no loading, no contract, no fee to start. [See the live booking portal →](https://stayker.link/936xi3) Group & block business ### Group leads, routed to you Group business — **10 or more rooms on peak night** — is generated and routed to you through **Explore Asheville**, the tournament's co-title sponsor, with Stayker as **Agent of Record** on those bookings. You get the group, we handle the agent side. Smaller groups book through the GDS, the same as individual reservations. How your content reaches us ### Your photos, descriptions & amenities — kept accurate Your photos, descriptions, and amenities flow in automatically from the GDS, so your listing is live the moment you're in the program. If something's out of date, you have two ways to fix it: 1. **Update it through your own channels** so the correction flows through the GDS everywhere it's distributed. 2. **Send the updated content to us** and we'll apply it for the Biltmore Championship Asheville. **Note:** content we update on your behalf appears only within Stayker event listings — it doesn't change your GDS content across the rest of your distribution. Optional & self-serve — offer an exclusive rate or amenity ### Stand out for tournament week Want to feature an exclusive tournament rate or a Biltmore Championship Asheville package? It's self-serve — no waiting on us. Here's the flow: 1. Read the rate-loading instructions and accept the Hotel Program Requirements. 2. Load your rate or package into the GDS (Galileo / Apollo) per the instructions. 3. Email talley@stayker.com to confirm, then verify it in the fan booking portal. **Note:** this optional path **does** require loading rates into our system via the GDS. Your public rates remain sellable with no action — the exclusive rate is purely an upgrade if you want one.

No. If your property is in the Global Distribution System (GDS - Galileo/Apollo), your publicly available rates will sell through the program automatically. Loading is only required for the optional special-rate or package path. #### Will small groups of 9 rooms or less book through this program? Yes. Hotels are promoted to ticketholders, hospitality groups, and they are often booking for a small group. We monitor the group activity and typically someone from Stayker will put the client in touch to set up billing, make name changes etc. #### How does group business work, and what counts as a group? A group is 10 or more rooms on peak night. Group leads come to you through Explore Asheville, the tournament's co-title sponsor, with Stayker serving as Agent of Record on the bookings. Smaller groups book through the GDS, the same as individual reservations. #### How do I offer a special tournament rate or package? Opt in through the form below. We'll send you your Stayker rate access code and exact step-by-step instructions to load the rate into Travelport / Galileo, then we feature it in the booking experience. #### My photos, description, or amenities are out of date — how do I fix them? Your static content comes from the GDS. You can correct it through your own channels so it updates across the GDS everywhere, or send us the updated content and we'll apply it for the Biltmore Championship Asheville. Content we update on your behalf appears only within Stayker event listings. #### Is there a cost to participate? There's no upfront fee to list your property. Stayker earns a standard commission on realized bookings — the same way the GDS already works. #### What's the booking cutoff for tournament week? There is no cut-off date for our fan GDS channel, fans can book for same day of tournament week. ## Questions or Listing Changes?
