REVENUE MANAGEMENT

Located in the Kent countryside, the Blazing Donkey provides a cosy and comfortable retreat close to Sandwich’s ancient cinque port. Its award-winning restaurant and location make it the perfect place for special events and weddings. Previously, the hotel used another provider but struggled with getting direct bookings, reaching out to customer support and overpaying commissions to third-party sites.

Why it matters: Ever since switching to Little Hotelier, the property has boosted its revenue and minimised human error.

Johnny Contance, General Manager of the Blazing Donkey explains, “My experience with the previous provider’s support team was awful, it was nearly impossible to speak to a team member and the waiting time was extremely long.”

Driving more direct bookings: The property is seeking the best solution to get direct bookings for the property.
Convenient switch: After struggling with the previous system, the hotel is eager to work with a system which has convenient customer support.
