A hotel that doubles as a learning environment needs tools that keep operations running smoothly and teaching simple. Leerhotel Het Klooster wanted a pricing approach that professionals could rely on and students could easily understand. RoomPriceGenie delivered clarity, confidence, and a 10% uplift in ADR.
Why it matters: Training hotels operate with a unique mix: real guests, real performance targets, and a new group of learners every year. Revenue management system must be easy, reliable, and fast, without adding pressure to an already dynamic environment.
  • Leerhotel Het Klooster in Amersfoort is housed in a former monastery from 1952, where education and hospitality are intentionally brought together. As part of a major hospitality school, the hotel welcomes around 600 students each year who gain practical experience with real guests, guided by experienced professionals. Before using RoomPriceGenie, the hotel worked with three fixed price levels—high, mid, and low season. This kept things simple, but as the hotel expanded to more distribution channels (including their own website and Expedia), the limitations became clear. Manual adjustments took time, required constant attention, and created room for errors. Opportunities were being missed. As the team explored automated pricing solutions, they assumed most revenue systems would be too complex for their operation. After all, the environment is centered around learning, and the team wanted something clear and accessible. After reviewing several systems, including RevControl, RoomPriceGenie stood out immediately. It was simple, intuitive, and aligned with the way the hotel works. Implementation was fast and stress-free. The system linked smoothly to the PMS, onboarding felt personal, and the team quickly gained confidence in using it. While students do not work with RoomPriceGenie directly, the hotel incorporates the system into daily teaching moments. In morning meetings, students review key metrics like occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR, and the team explains the pricing logic behind the system. Its visual layout helps students grasp revenue concepts in a way that fits vocational education.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Het Klooster wanted to modernize pricing, reduce manual workload, and make revenue management concepts easier to explain within a learning environment.
  • Move beyond fixed pricing: Evolve from three static seasonal rates toward dynamic pricing that adapts to demand, events, and real-time market changes.

  • Keep it understandable: Use a system intuitive enough for the operations team to manage daily and simple enough to explain to students during training moments.

  • Save time, reduce errors: Eliminate manual updates across multiple channels and minimize the risks tied to repetitive price changes.
