Jonathan Anthamatten, General Manager at EMA House Zurich shares which tech solutions he recently invested in and how using a cutting-edge RMS like Atomize have driven his property’s KPIs through the roof. Set in downtown Zurich, EMA House operates a hybrid business model. Its EMA House Hotel Suites boasts 23 elegant and modern suites only a short walk from the city center. Apart from that, the brand offers 70 serviced apartments in five convenient locations throughout the city. While the conveniently located suites are most popular with leisure travelers, the well-equipped and stylish apartments attract international business guests on extended stays in the Swiss business hub.
Why it matters: Updating the EMA House Zurich’s tech stack proved to be a wise and profitable decision. It helped the property modernize its workflows, capture more demand and thrive even under difficult conditions. Price optimization from Atomize was one of many important implementations that were made.

  • With the hospitality industry undergoing seismic shifts during the pandemic, EMA House early understood they needed to adapt to survive. The first step was to find ways to streamline workflows and reduce their overhead, this is when Jonathan came in contact with Atomize.

Top 3 Core Objectives: As a result of the pandemic, EMA House needed to remove manual tasks that could be automated and was looking for new ways to better forecast business and optimize pricing and distribution.

  • Streamline and automate workflows: EMA House's objective was to make workflows more efficient by improving the systems they were using. A PMS and RMS that had a seamless integration and didn't leave a lot of manual work to the team.

  • Improve business forecast: Changing from using historical data and competitor insights to predict future business and set prices to instead looking into the future and utilizing forward-looking data to set prices and forecast.

  • Improve our KPIs: EMA House needed a solution that would optimize prices to help capture more bookings with optimal rates and outperform RevPAR and ADR as a result.
