Buasri Boutique Patong Hotel increased its RevPAR by 67% and reduced the time spent on pricing by 70%

REVENUE MANAGEMENT

Buasri Boutique Patong is a family-owned hotel, 15 minutes walk away from a well-known Patong Beach. Jacky and his partner took over the hotel operations from their family. Motivated to streamline the pricing process and save time, he explored various revenue management systems.

Why it matters: Jacky, being responsible for the hotel’s sales and marketing, used to work on pricing in a spreadsheet with different price points for each month. Then he would adjust the price for each day based on the occupancy. Manual pricing methods take hours every day and involve human errors. Independent hoteliers, like Jacky, often miss out on revenue opportunities due to the dynamic changes in the market.

RoomPriceGenie helps independent hoteliers around the globe to automate their revenue management tasks by working around the clock to maximize their room revenue. With features like the Real-time Surge Protection, it enables hoteliers to stop missing out on revenue opportunites.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Jacky was motivated to streamline the pricing process, and save time. A revenue management system needed to meet the following objectives:

Save time: Jacky wanted to reduce the time spend on manual revenue management work. The manual work was prone to error, and in the competitive market in which the hotel is operating, the pricing needed to be always optimized.
Increase revenue: For someone who's in charge of hotel pricing, making more revenue than you can with manual pricing, is all you can ask for.
Budget-friendly for smaller properties: He used to think RMS was very expensive and only big hotels could afford it. Upon discovering RoomPriceGenie's positive reputation and suitability for small to medium-sized hotels, he booked a demo.
