REVENUE MANAGEMENT
Guesthouse Sternen is going digital with Little Hotelier
Verified case study
Hotel Tech Report has reached out to hoteliers at Guesthouse Sternen to verify this case study.
Guesthouse Sternen, located in Germany’s Black Forest region, has been operating since more than 100 years ago. The Wofford family took over management of the property in the summer of 2020 and started an extensive renovation project, resulting in a guesthouse with four modern double rooms and holiday homes as well as a sauna and a common room.
In the past, the owners were capturing each reservation manually in their calendar. This was time-consuming and can be very confusing. Their biggest worry was accidental double bookings which would’ve been such an inconvenience for guests. The guesthouse is in quite a remote location and there’s not a lot of alternative booking options nearby.
Why it matters:
Since using Little Hotelier, bookings are going directly into their PMS via the property’s website and coming in from OTAs via the channel manager feature. Reservations are automatically reflected in the inventory and all guest data is being transferred as well.
-
The property admits that it’s such a relief to know they’re not accidentally overbooking the property. They can save a lot of time with the new solution by eliminating manual edits of the bookings.
Top 3 Core Objectives:
Guesthouse Sternen uses Little Hotelier to increase their online bookings, establish the new website, and reach a new international market.
-
Escalating online bookings: Little Hotelier‘s channel manager allows guests to book online and via OTAs for the first time ever. This had a very positive effect on the total number of bookings.
-
Expanding the market: The property aims to welcome international guests in the future by testing new distribution channels with Little Hotelier in ease.
