Royal Group Hotels & Resorts Generates $5M in Direct Revenue

REVENUE MANAGEMENT

Royal Group Hotels & Resorts operates two of southern Italy's most iconic properties: the five-star Hotel Parco dei Principi in Sorrento and the four-star Hotel Royal Continental in Naples. Despite their distinct markets, both hotels faced the same pressure: OTA undercuts eroding direct bookings, raising commission costs, and limiting control over the pre-stay experience. The challenge was finding a strategy that worked across a leisure destination and a city hotel at the same time.

Why it matters: Royal Group now generates over $5 million in direct booking revenue per year through its Triptease partnership, averaging more than $410k per month across both properties.

Royal Group uses Triptease Metasearch and Display Ads to reach guests across the booking journey, from initial search to post-visit browsing, while Triptease Messages delivers personalised website content that drives both conversions and ancillary revenue. Together, these tools give the group consistent direct booking performance across two very different hotel types.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Royal Group needed to reduce reliance on OTAs, maintain visibility in key lower-funnel channels, and deliver a personalised booking experience across two properties with different guest profiles and booking behaviours.

Reduce OTA dependency: OTA undercuts were pushing guests away from the direct channel, increasing commissions and reducing Royal Group's control over the pre-stay experience.
Win across property types: The leisure-focused Hotel Parco dei Principi and the business-oriented Hotel Royal Continental attract different guests with different booking windows and device habits, requiring a flexible, data-informed approach.
Cover the full booking: Royal Group wanted to reach potential guests at every stage, from metasearch to post-browse retargeting, rather than relying on a single channel to convert.
