What Corporate Traveler brings to the table - backed by proven results
Partner with a corporate travel agency in Orange County that puts your business first
Looking for a place to stay in Orange County?
Orange County doesn't have one center — it has several. Your morning meeting might be in Irvine's business district, your client dinner in Newport Beach, and your next call in Anaheim. Getting the location right matters more here than almost anywhere else in Southern California.
That's where Corporate Traveler comes in. We'll match you with the right hotel for your schedule and business needs, no guesswork required. Every property has been personally vetted by our Travel Managers, so you can spend less time on the 405 and more time focused on business. Talk to a Corporate Traveler expert to get started.

Our top car rental partners in Orange County
A note on getting around: Unlike San Francisco or New York, Orange County is not a city you can navigate without a car. Public transit is limited, distances between business hubs are significant, and meetings in Irvine, Anaheim, Newport Beach, and Huntington Beach can easily span 20 to 30 miles in a single day. A rental car isn't optional here — it's part of the trip. Corporate Traveler can help you secure preferred rates with our car rental partners so it's one less thing to think about.
- Enterprise: One of the largest car rental networks in the US, with multiple Orange County locations and a strong corporate account program.
- Alamo: A popular choice for business travelers, with self-serve kiosks for faster pickup and a wide vehicle selection across OC locations.
- Budget: A cost-effective option for longer rentals or extended stays, with convenient pickup at John Wayne Airport.
- Hertz: A trusted corporate travel staple with Gold Plus Rewards for frequent renters and a dedicated business travel program.
- Avis: Known for its Avis Preferred program, offering expedited pickup and a strong network of OC locations for flexible, last-minute bookings.
