Première Advisory Group (PAG), a Cloudbeds Certified Consultant Partner, redefined what’s possible in hotel technology by deploying Cloudbeds for The Troubadour Hotel — a 184-room property in New Orleans — in just 24 hours. This rapid, seamless implementation set a new benchmark for efficiency during a high-stakes transition from franchise to independent operations.

Why it matters: In an industry where PMS launches can take weeks, PAG and Cloudbeds demonstrated that speed and precision don’t have to come at the cost of quality. Their partnership delivered operational continuity, OTA connectivity, and staff readiness ahead of one of the busiest seasons of the year.

Cloudbeds enabled Première Advisory Group to execute a full-scale system implementation for The Troubadour Hotel in record time — integrating property management, payments, and OTA connectivity while ensuring the team was fully trained and operational within a day.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Faced with a tight timeline and a critical deflagging from a major chain, Première Advisory Group needed a modern, reliable PMS to deliver a seamless transition to independence for The Troubadour Hotel.

Ensure operational continuity: Maintain seamless OTA connectivity, payment processing, and guest check-in/out functionality throughout the transition period.
