Hotel Merveilleux
Hotel Merveilleux is a successful hotel in Ghent that was looking for a way to increase it’s revenue. Their search for a sustainable solution was answered when they partnered with Otamiser. Discover how this collaboration transformed their revenue strategy.
Approach
Before partnering with Otamiser, Hotel Merveilleux was already using RoomPriceGenie's leading revenue management software. This enabled the hotel to implement dynamic pricing, leveraging the many impactful factors RoomPriceGenie considers in its recommendations.
However, the owners felt they were not yet reaching the hotel’s full potential. When they met Otamiser, they found a solution to this problem. The innovative Booster® combines the best pricing strategies for hotels with a game-changing algorithm, boosting the position of listings in the search results on OTAs. Otamiser’s revenue experts started managing the RMS for the hotel, applying their expertise to optimize pricing strategies.
The integration of Otamiser's Booster® algorithm into Hotel Merveilleux's listings catapulted the position and visibility of the hotel on OTAs such as Booking.com. This powerful combination of higher visibility and the best pricing strategies, alongside RoomPriceGenie’s software, led to impressive revenue results for the hotel.
Results and Impact
The combination of Otamiser’s Booster® and RoomPriceGenie’s revenue software yielded remarkable outcomes, showcasing tangible improvements in revenue and market performance:
Revenue Growth
- Four months after the implementation of Booster®, year-over-year revenue increased by 47.9%.
- The use of Booster® resulted in a 10.22% increase in Average Daily Rate (ADR), contributing to overall revenue growth.
Enhanced Visibility
- The implementation of Booster® led to an average increase of 72% in search result views on Booking.com.
The surge in activity on the hotel’s Booking.com profile significantly increased traffic to the hotel's website, leading to a rise in commission-free direct bookings. This phenomenon, known as the "Billboard effect," strongly benefits the hotel's earnings.
Operational Efficiency By automating key revenue management tasks, Hotel Merveilleux experienced a significant improvement in operational efficiency, freeing up valuable time for staff to focus on guest experience and other strategic initiatives.
