OTA_HotelRoomListRQ / OTA_HotelRoomListRS

The OTA_HotelRoomList messages are used to request the following elements in the Hotel-Spider system:

The room type structure
The rate plan structure

Prior to establishing a connection between a third party software client and the Hotel-Spider servers, the room types and rate plans need to be mapped. For this purpose, a third party software provider can use either this request/response pair or the combination of the OTA_HotelDescriptiveInfoRQ/OTA_HotelDescriptiveInfoRS and OTA_HotelRatePlanRQ/OTA_HotelRatePlanRS
