SUHA Hospitality has recently been going through a technology transformation to increase operational efficiency and stay competitive in the dynamic market of Dubai. One of their game-changing investments was Atomize RMS which has helped them increase revenue and saved 3 hours of daily, manual work. Their luxurious hotel apartments are ideally located throughout Dubai. This ensures guests have easy access to the city’s top business, entertainment and lifestyle venues.

"Thanks to Atomize, we were able to adapt to demand shifts in real time. That allowed us to seize revenue opportunities we would have likely missed in the past because we weren’t able to update our rates fast enough. Now, we can be sure that our prices are always in line with demand, be it for last-minute bookings or above-average lead times. This has resulted in us continuously outperforming our compset’s ADR since using Atomize."
