Alaa Elhadi, an independent revenue management consultant, provides outsourced hotel revenue management for hotels, resorts and serviced apartments in Bangkok, Thailand, one to one, remotely and in Indochina Time (UTC+7). In Bangkok, I price November to February as the peak and June to October as the quiet time, and I build the work around that calendar.

Outsourced hotel revenue management means I do the job of the revenue manager for you: I watch the comp set and pace every day, move rates and restrictions, manage the OTAs, forecast demand and report each month. You keep control of the hotel and see every decision.
What I plan around in Bangkok: Songkran water festival; Chinese New Year and Golden Week inbound; Medical tourism; Conference and business travel. Guests I price for: Asian and European travellers on 3 to 5 night stays, plus monthly condo guests. Where I start: Condo positioning by BTS access, holiday premiums, and 30-night minimum strategies where building rules apply.
My background is five-star hotel revenue, so for Bangkok hotels and serviced apartments I work on segmentation between corporate, MICE and leisure, rate fences for the big conference weeks, and a comp set chosen by district rather than by star rating alone.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Bangkok.
I monitor your comp set and booking pace every day and move rates, rate plans and restrictions as demand shifts, room type by room type.
I manage the channel mix, parity and promotions together across Booking.com, Expedia, Agoda, Google and your own site, so cost of sale does not eat the gain.
On the higher plans I forecast demand by month and segment, build the annual budget and keep a 12-month pricing calendar tied to the market's real dates.
You get a monthly performance summary, a full ADR, occupancy and RevPAR report on Plus and Pro, and on Pro a monthly strategy call and a quarterly review.
“Bangkok's condo market has a legal problem many owners ignore: renting for less than 30 days without a hotel licence is generally not allowed, and many buildings ban short stays. The legal model for most condos is monthly. Songkran and cool-season visitors create short-stay demand for properly licensed units.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
I lift weekend floors early and stop last-minute discounts, because cool-season travellers book Bangkok weeks ahead and still pay full rate in the final days.
For licensed units I set a three or four night minimum across the water festival and price it as its own short season, not as an ordinary April week.
The heat thins leisure demand, so I lean on business weekdays and keep weekend rates realistic rather than holding out for peak-season prices.
I move effort to monthly and weekly stays and protect the nightly floor; cutting it deeply here only teaches repeat guests to wait for the rains.
Confirm whether the building and licence allow stays under 30 days.
Build monthly rates for condos, priced by BTS or MRT access.
Price Songkran and Chinese New Year as premiums for licensed units.
Target medical tourists with weekly and monthly stays.
Lower rainy-season floors.
No revenue manager
The role left or was never hired, and rooms are priced between other duties.
Results have plateaued
RevPAR has stopped moving while the comp set keeps learning.
More than one property
You want one consistent method across a small group without building a department.
An owner or asset manager
You want decisions made by a specialist and reported in numbers you can check.
Room count, room types, channels and the systems you use. I confirm the plan level and the monthly price for your size.
I study your market, comp set and current rates, set up the strategy and connect your PMS or channel manager and pricing tool.
I adjust rates, restrictions and promotions as demand moves, and manage your OTAs on Plus and Pro.
Step 4
You get the report against budget and last year, and on Pro we meet monthly, so nothing I do is hidden.
Priced monthly by your hotel's size, not per room. Core, Plus and Pro, month to month, never a percentage of revenue. Hotels of 200 or more rooms, luxury properties and groups are quoted individually.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Core, up to 20 rooms | Managed pricing, run for you every day | From $650/mo |
| Plus | Pricing plus OTA, channel and segment optimization | By hotel size |
| Pro | Full revenue management with forecasting and a monthly strategy call | By hotel size |
Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.
Alaa is a consummate professional! Patient, thorough, efficient and effective in communicating. He not only made savvy adjustments to my dynamic pricing strategy, but also helped me to understand the reasoning behind his methods, granting me a better understanding of the PriceLabs platform. Strong work!
Airbnb host
Alaa was fantastic, going through each of the properties I had and gave great advice and actioned a great game plan. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to enhance their pricing strategy on PriceLabs. Alaa's experience goes beyond this which makes it very beneficial to have this holistic approach.
Property manager
Alaa helped me optimize my PriceLabs settings for my Airbnb listing and was very helpful and patient with answering any questions I had. He was also able to clearly explain why he made the changes he made, and it was obvious that he had a lot of experience in this field. I will definitely be back!

Busiest in Bangkok: November to February and Songkran in mid-April. November to February: I lift weekend floors early and stop last-minute discounts, because cool-season travellers book Bangkok weeks ahead and still pay full rate in the final days. Mid-April (Songkran): For licensed units I set a three or four night minimum across the water festival and price it as its own short season, not as an ordinary April week. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i raise floors and tighten minimum stays ahead of these windows and review pace every week, so the strongest dates never sell early at a shoulder rate.
For outsourced hotel revenue management, that is the first thing I check before taking on the pricing, because everything else sits on top of it. How the listing ranks for its BTS or MRT station on Agoda and Airbnb, since in this city guests filter by train line before they ever compare price.
Price Songkran and Chinese New Year as premiums for licensed units. Next: lower rainy-season floors. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Bangkok property usually leaks the most.
For outsourced hotel revenue management, in the quiet months my job is to protect the floor, close gaps with length-of-stay and last-minute rules, and keep the property visible on every channel. Quietest in Bangkok: May to October rainy season. June to October: I move effort to monthly and weekly stays and protect the nightly floor; cutting it deeply here only teaches repeat guests to wait for the rains. March to May: The heat thins leisure demand, so I lean on business weekdays and keep weekend rates realistic rather than holding out for peak-season prices.
Transit access not reflected in price and monthly demand ignored. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Bangkok, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Bangkok, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Bangkok sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Agoda. March to May: The heat thins leisure demand, so I lean on business weekdays and keep weekend rates realistic rather than holding out for peak-season prices.
Ari and Phaya Thai: A quieter, local neighbourhood that attracts longer stays; I price it for value-seekers and reward two-week bookings rather than chasing tourist peaks. Thonglor and Ekkamai and Chinatown (Yaowarat) get their own treatment. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i set rates, comp sets and restrictions per area and per room or listing type, not as one citywide number.
Conference and business travel, Songkran water festival and Chinese New Year and Golden Week inbound are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Bangkok. Mid-April (Songkran): For licensed units I set a three or four night minimum across the water festival and price it as its own short season, not as an ordinary April week.

I have optimized 100+ properties in and around Bangkok and work remotely in Indochina Time (UTC+7). Locally, that shows up in decisions like this: build monthly rates for condos, priced by BTS or MRT access.

They run month to month and are never a percentage of revenue. The scope of outsourced hotel revenue management is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in Bangkok I would start from November to February: I lift weekend floors early and stop last-minute discounts, because cool-season travellers book Bangkok weeks ahead and still pay full rate in the final days.
