Connected tech drives the growth of Kronen Hotels.

OPERATIONS

Kronen Hotels is a privately held Norwegian group based in Sandnes that operates five properties, ranging from B&B-style accommodations to historic hotels known for weddings, conferences and premium experiences. Alongside two restaurants, catering operations and facility management services, Kronen Hotels cultivates a strong local brand presence.

Why it matters: The team takes pride in staying agile, innovative and customer focused. They offer different tech solutions to suit the different needs of leisure guests and business travelers, with Mews at the core of their operations.

Their previous tech stack was outdated, server-based and locked into expensive, inflexible contracts. Manual processes, especially around revenue management and reporting, drained time and resources.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Kronen Hotels aimed to modernize its technology infrastructure, automate key revenue‑management processes, and build a flexible, scalable tech stack across its diverse portfolio, enabling efficiency, growth, and better guest experiences.

Modernize Tech Stack: Move away from a rigid, server-based PMS to a cloud-native system (Mews) that supports real-time integrations, flexibility, and lower operating costs.
Automate Revenue Management: Use a smart RMS to streamline pricing, remove manual rate-setting, and make rate decisions based on real-time market data.
Tailor Operations per Property: Enable each hotel in the group (from reception-free to historic) to choose the right tools (kiosk, payments, events) for its model, using Mews’s open API and integrations.
