Brewhalla achieves 70% direct bookings with RoomRaccoon

Brewhalla, nestled in the heart of Fargo, North Dakota, is where hospitality and craft brewing collide. Since opening in March 2023, it has become a lively cultural hub, offering not just a place to stay, but a dynamic experience. With a brewery, a market featuring 14 local businesses, an expansive event center, and 40 uniquely designed rooms, Brewhalla is the perfect blend of creativity and community.

Why it matters: Hailey von Wald, the Supreme Experience Conductor at Brewhalla, needed a hotel management solution to automate their guest journey and add new revenue streams to bolster their bottom line. She found this and more in RoomRaccoon.

RoomRaccoon provides an all-in-one hotel management solution that empowers Brewhalla with all the tools it needs to maximize revenue and create unforgettable experiences for guests.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Brewhalla's objective was clear: automate the guest journey and create new revenue streams to strengthen their bottom line. RoomRaccoon made this possible with features like online check-in, automated upselling, and a powerful website booking engine.

Automate upselling: RaccoonUpsell allows Brewhalla to automatically offer room upgrades and add-ons during the booking and online check-in process. This feature lets guests personalize their stay in advance, ensuring they get the most out of Brewhalla's offerings.
Streamline check-in: Without a traditional reception desk, RoomRaccoon’s online check-in lets guests skip arrival queues, freeing up Hailey and her team to focus on what they do best. The seamless integration with Remotelock provides each guest with a personalized access code, replacing the need for key cards entirely.
Booking engine that converts: Hailey sought a solution that would enhance their booking engine and streamline online payments to elevate the guest experience. By choosing RoomRaccoon’s HMS, Brewhalla gained a customizable booking engine and integrated RaccoonPay, improving guest satisfaction, increasing direct bookings, and reducing chargebacks.
