Hotel Revenue Management is a three-letter maxim that keeps hotels, B&B's and hostels afloat during challenging times in the hospitality industry.

As hotel pricing experts, we get asked lots of questions. But one question comes back very often: what is the difference between yield management and a revenue management system?

Right now, all hotels – but especially smaller, independent properties – are facing a never-before-seen set of challenges; from supply chain issues, to inflation, to rising energy costs, to the ongoing staffing crisis, it is a very difficult time to operate a hotel.

Running any accommodation business is a lot of work, and amidst all things to do, hoteliers typically always put their guests first. Other tasks, like the rooms’ pricing, are often secondary considerations.

In 5 years, most hotels will have dynamic pricing. This may seem like a bold statement, but to us at RoomPriceGenie, we see every day in our work how necessary it is. But getting prices right wasn’t always so straightforward. And this is why we created Intuitive Dynamic Pricing.

One of the most common feature requests we have had has been to make pricing further out than one year. People are often booking well in advance, and good pricing should be available for this too.

Just this week we had some exciting news that now Google Hotel Ads will always show some of the Google Free Links on the front page of Google Hotels. The best part is that it is FREE.

Running a hotel is a lot of work. And pricing is often a secondary consideration, with the guest experience coming first. Sadly, the people who give so much energy to the guests may be missing out on many profit opportunities.

We often find that the hotels we set up are not, in our opinion, charging enough for their rooms. Especially now, in a post-corona period, when everything is uncertain, many hotels choose to sell low rather than sell their rooms for a good deal.

Revenue management software is the hottest topic in hotel technology these days. But although everyone is talking about it, not many people have it. A recent Skift report showed that only around 5-10% of hotels are using software and theses are almost exclusively large chains.

RevPAR (revenue per available room) is the most common measure of success of a hotel’s revenue and marketing strategy. It is actually a very simple measure, and is a better performance indicator than ADR (Average Daily Rate).

Cloud-based software is perhaps one of the leading changes within the hotel industry over the past decade. Through offering hotel owners safe and reliable means of running their property, the cloud presents a huge opportunity compared to the older on-premise systems.

Guest post by Gianluca Marongiu, from our partner Swiss Hospitality Solutions who offer a high level of revenue management consulting, outsourcing and education.

Defining your competitive set (comp set) as a hotel has long been seen as an important part of revenue management. Many hotels look to keep a certain pricing gap with their competitors.

Data is the future! Data will help you make better decisions! Data’s so great! It is better than humans! Data this! Data that! As my kids would say “If you love data so much, why don’t you just marry it?”.

There really isn’t any way to put a gloss on what is happening at the moment. However, it is always good to think of the positives and make the best of the situation.

The COVID-19 Coronavirus has already had a large impact on the hotel industry and brought with it a huge amount of uncertainty. The first priority at this time is obviously the safety of guests and staff. But the economic impacts are never far from everyone’s mind.

We often hear hotels saying that they don’t change their prices because regular customers like the fact that their prices stay the same. Their feeling is that consistency builds loyalty.

At RoomPriceGenie we LOVE co-founder Marvin’s presentations. And it’s not just us – we get a lot of great feedback too. And now, thanks to the wonders of modern technology, you too can experience the joy!

Put simply, revenue optimisation means setting the best possible price for your hotel rooms based on the information available. It means determining not just a good price, but the best price.

The robots are coming! They’re taking over! No job is safe! That’s the hype we keep hearing, and revenue-management software companies definitely want you to believe that a computer is better than a human. But is it true?

I have been privileged in the last week to speak to two experts in the field of digital and social media hotel marketing – Are Morch and Sébastien Félix of Influence Society.

Revenue Management is an extremely important subject for all hotels; large and small. The difference between a hotel that carefully manages its revenue and one that does nothing could be as much as 20% of revenue per year.

We were fortunate enough recently to have a project on us carried out by an SBP team from the world renowned Ecole hôtelière de Lausanne. As part of their excellent project, they conducted a study into current practices in revenue management and hotel technology in general.

The world of revenue management has come a long way from its airline beginnings. With new developments and technology, what was once reserved for the multi-million dollar airline companies and huge hotel chains, is now available to managers of even the smallest serviced apartments.

The expansive and ever-growing hospitality industry has made way for an increasingly dynamic market. From a one-room Airbnb apartment to multi-billion dollar hotel chains, the industry is putting increased demand on its technology to meet its varied needs.

At RoomPriceGenie, we speak to a lot of hoteliers. Although they all know that revenue is important (that’s why they are talking to us), often the whole subject is very confusing.

Many small hotel owners have mixed feelings about free cancellation. On one hand, by offering it you are undoubtedly increasing the number of bookings you get.

Some clients want breakfast, some don’t. Others value free cancellation, others don’t. Some clients are very price sensitive, some are more value sensitive and some just want the best.

Your website is the face of your hotel to the outside world. It can be a make or break when it comes to customers booking direct. Studies show that as many as 80% of travelers book their holidays online...

GDS, CRS, CRM, PMS, RMS, Channel Manager, Booking Engine. Cloud-based, On-site based, yield management, revenue management, rate parity, blah blah blah, RevPAR.

Hotel software is a very confusing area if you are trying to work out what is best for your hotel. And there are no easy answers. At RoomPriceGenie we don’t sell a property management system (PMS).

RevPAR is probably the most common measure of hotel performance. But is it always the best? Or the most suitable? In our latest guest post, David Eisen from HotStats discusses a few of the other Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that you could use instead.
