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 Buenos Aires: Southern-hemisphere summer; Tango festival and cultural calendar; Polo season; Long-stay language and nomad travel. Guests I price for: International travellers on 4 to 7 night stays in Palermo and Recoleta, plus monthly guests. Where I start: USD-denominated pricing with inflation awareness, monthly discount ladders, and summer premiums.
From my years in five-star hotels I bring rate fences and segment mix to Buenos Aires boutique hotels and aparthotels: corporate rates for Puerto Madero and Microcentro, leisure packages for Recoleta and Palermo, and a clear policy on how often public rates move when the currency shifts.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Buenos Aires.
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.
“Buenos Aires pricing is shaped by the economy as much as the season. Guests usually think in dollars, inflation moves costs quickly and exchange-rate changes can make the city cheap or expensive fast. Summer and cultural events are the peaks, and monthly guests are common. I review pricing more often here than almost anywhere.”

Porteños leave for the Atlantic coast, so local demand drops while foreign visitors arrive. I keep rates firm for international stays and avoid discounting just because the neighbourhood feels empty.
Autumn is lovely and Lollapalooza Argentina lands in March, so I price that weekend on its own and hold steady rates for the language-school intakes that follow.
Winter is the quiet stretch, so I sell 28 night stays to students and remote workers and set the floor in dollar terms rather than letting a stale peso number drift down.
The tango festival and world championship bring dancers who stay a week or more; I treat those dates as a premium block and reward full-festival bookings over scattered nights.
Spring and the Palermo polo season in November and December lift demand, so I raise weekends early and set firmer minimums around Christmas and New Year.
Set prices with the dollar value in mind and review them frequently.
Price October to April as the main season.
Build monthly rates for language students and nomads.
Price Palermo and Recoleta separately.
Add the Tango festival in August as a premium.
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 |

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 Buenos Aires: October to April, with the Christmas to New Year period and Tango festival in August as spikes. January to February: Porteños leave for the Atlantic coast, so local demand drops while foreign visitors arrive. I keep rates firm for international stays and avoid discounting just because the neighbourhood feels empty. August: The tango festival and world championship bring dancers who stay a week or more; I treat those dates as a premium block and reward full-festival bookings over scattered nights. 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. Whether the building's reglamento and the city rules allow temporary rentals in that unit, since a consorcio dispute can end a listing faster than any pricing mistake.
Build monthly rates for language students and nomads. Next: add the Tango festival in August as a premium. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Buenos Aires 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 Buenos Aires: June to July. June to July: Winter is the quiet stretch, so I sell 28 night stays to students and remote workers and set the floor in dollar terms rather than letting a stale peso number drift down. March to May: Autumn is lovely and Lollapalooza Argentina lands in March, so I price that weekend on its own and hold steady rates for the language-school intakes that follow.
Monthly demand ignored and winter priced like summer. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Buenos Aires, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Buenos Aires, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Buenos Aires sells mostly through Airbnb and Booking.com. March to May: Autumn is lovely and Lollapalooza Argentina lands in March, so I price that weekend on its own and hold steady rates for the language-school intakes that follow.
San Telmo: Cobblestone streets and the Sunday market draw first-time visitors; I price weekends with a Sunday arrival premium and keep weekdays sharp against Palermo. Puerto Madero and Belgrano and Colegiales 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.
Long-stay language and nomad travel, Southern-hemisphere summer and Tango festival and cultural calendar are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Buenos Aires.
