Great for individual hotel/motel

Owner from 10 to 24 room Bed & Breakfast & Inn in Armidale (Australia)

We started using Room Price Genie before COVID and then took it up again when business picked up. We are a family run motel with 24 and now that the settings are tweaked we are effectively running on auto pilot with the odd check /adjustment when rates se to high or too low.

Ease of use and doesn't need adjusting too often

Manager from 25-49 room City Center Hotel in Broadbeach (Australia)

He has been great from introduction and we have been customers for a month or so now and impressed with results so far.

What's not to love about RoomPriceGenie!

Business Owner from 10 to 24 room Resort in Noosaville (Australia)

It has freed up so much of my time that I'd spend manually adjusting rates to be competitive. We have seen only positive results, including increased occupancy, with pricing matching market demand whether high, low or during peak times such as school holidays and the ability to setup auto pilot and let RPG do it's magic... A BIG Fan!

It's good but it has hidden downsides. Overall I think it negatively effected the business.

It automatically puts prices up when there is a concert or an event on meaning you don't have look manually when events etc are on in the local area.

Dynamic pricing as good as any International big brand hotel revenue system at an affordable cost. Easy to use and administrate.
