For independent hotels

Price like the chains, without the head office.

Revenue management for independent hotels: we set your rates every day against the hotels guests compare you with, win back bookings from Booking.com and Expedia, and help your team turn arrivals into upgrades and better reviews.

What owners tell us, and what we do

The chains move first

The branded hotels down the road change rates several times a day. Yours change when someone has a spare minute.

What we do: We set your rates every day against your comp set, the hotels guests compare you with.

Your best nights pay the most commission

Busy nights sell through Booking.com and Expedia at 15% or more a booking, when those guests would happily book direct. On a $250 Saturday, that's $37.50 a room, every room, every Saturday.

What we do: A direct offer that gives guests a reason to book with you instead.

Weekends fill, Sunday to Wednesday lag

Leisure guests look after Friday and Saturday. The rest of the week needs corporate, group and package business.

What we do: Corporate and group rates to fill Sunday to Wednesday.

How it works

From first call to first rates in ten days.

  1. Week 1

    Review

    You get a 90-day plan that shows what each change is worth. We build it from your goals, 12 months of your data, your comp set, your listings and your reviews. Then you decide.

  2. Day 10

    Price

    If you go ahead, your first rates go live. From then on we set them every day, night by night, within rules you agree.

  3. Months 1 to 3

    Market and serve

    We work alongside your team to bring more guests direct, fix your listings, turn your reviews into a list of fixes and train your front office.

  4. Every month

    Report

    A clear month-end report and a call: what happened, what it was worth, and what we do next.

Nothing new to install. We work in the systems you already use, with our own logins, so every change is visible to you.

Sample Hotel · 120 rooms

Sample case study: RevPAR up 12.6% in four months.

Sample Hotel is an example property, not a client. It sold out every weekend but ran midweek at half full. This is how we'd report taking on its pricing, listings and arrivals.

The challenge

Weekend rates were set months ahead, so the last rooms went cheapest. Tuesdays averaged 54%, Booking.com brought 41% of nights, and the same complaints came up in review after review.

What we did

  • Revenue management

    Weekend and event rates set daily, minimum stays on event nights, and corporate rates to fill midweek.

  • Marketing

    New Booking.com photos and content, rate parity fixed, and Google hotel ads pointing to the website.

  • Service optimisation

    Reviews analysed every month, a list of fixes for the team, and an upgrade offer at every arrival.

Questions

What owners ask us.

We already have pricing software. Do we still need you?
Pricing software sets numbers from rules someone has to manage. We run it for you, check it against the market every day and look after what software doesn't: channels, packages, reviews and your team.
How do you choose our comp set?
We start with the hotels guests compare you with on Booking.com and Google, check them against your location and rooms, and agree the list with you before the first rates go live.
Do we keep control of our rates?
Yes. We set rates within the floors and ceilings you agree, and you can override anything. We tell you what each override changed.
Do you work with small hotel groups?
[Your answer: whether you take on groups, and how you report to owners across several properties. One or two sentences.]
