JustStay Hotels & Apartments: Scaling Smart with Atomize

REVENUE MANAGEMENT

JustStay, a fast-growing German hotel group, implemented Atomize to automate pricing and maximize revenue across its expanding portfolio. By leveraging real-time, data-driven rate optimization, JustStay increased efficiency, reduced manual work, and ensured agile revenue management as it scaled its operations nationwide.

Why it matters: As the hospitality industry faces rising labor costs and an increasing demand for automation, hotel groups like JustStay must find ways to maintain profitability with lean teams. This case study highlights how data-driven revenue management enables independent and fast-growing hotel brands to stay competitive, optimize pricing in real time, and scale efficiently without sacrificing control or guest experience.

Atomize is a revenue management system that automatically adjusts room prices based on real-time market data, demand, and occupancy. It removes the need for manual rate updates by analyzing data continuously and setting the most competitive prices across all channels. Atomize runs in the cloud and connects directly to JustStay’s property management system. It tracks booking patterns, competitor rates, and local demand to update room prices automatically several times a day. This allows JustStay’s team to keep pricing accurate across all properties and distribution channels without having to log in and make manual changes.

Top 3 Core Objectives: As JustStay expanded its portfolio across Germany, the team needed a way to manage dynamic pricing efficiently with limited staff. Their goal was to automate revenue management, maintain rate accuracy, and support scalable growth without increasing operational workload.

Automate pricing operations: Replace manual rate changes with continuous, system-driven updates based on occupancy, pickup, and market signals—applied across all properties and channels.
Support scalable growth: Enable the team to manage more properties and room types without adding headcount by standardizing workflows and centralizing pricing control.
Maintain revenue accuracy: Keep prices aligned with real demand and competitor movements in real time to reduce pricing errors, protect rate parity, and capture optimal ADR.
