Hotel revenue management consulting is an independent review followed by a plan. I look at 12 to 24 months of your own data, shop your comp set, and find where rates, restrictions or channels are costing you money. Unlike outsourcing, I do not make your daily decisions; your team does, with a better plan.
This is my view of Dijon. Burgundy is wine and food. Harvest and the Hospices de Beaune auction in November are the high points, and gastronomy travellers fill spring. Guests stay three to five nights. I price the autumn and keep a gastronomy-led shoulder. Dijon itself works as a city base with good rail links, while Beaune and the vineyard villages sell the wine experience. The two need separate prices even though they are a short drive apart.
For a Burgundy home, I look at whether it competes as a Dijon city flat or a vineyard base, check registration and access details, and map autumn, spring and festive dates so each one gets its own price, rather than one curve stretched across very different months.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Dijon.
A review of the last 12 to 24 months: pricing decisions, rate architecture, restrictions, channel mix and cost, comp-set position, pace and the systems behind them, with every gap ranked by value.
Base rates and floors per room type, BAR levels tied to occupancy and pace, seasonal and event calendars and restrictions, written as a 12-month calendar your team can run.
Which channels to sell on, at what rate and with which promotions, so the mix protects margin: OTAs, corporate, wholesale, metasearch and direct.
A demand forecast, an annual budget, weekly pace reports and a workshop for your team, plus honest advice on revenue systems before you sign for one.

I keep Dijon open for business visitors and weekend food lovers at a modest floor, while vineyard homes take longer stays or close for maintenance.
Spring tastings and gastronomy weekends lift demand, so I firm up Friday and Saturday nights and allow two-night stays for couples touring the Côte de Nuits.
Summer brings touring families and cyclists on the vineyard paths, but fewer wine buyers, so I price steadily and avoid treating August as the year's peak.
Picking weeks make Beaune and the villages the hardest beds to find in the region, and I hold weekend rates firm with three-night minimums close to the vines.
The Dijon gastronomy fair and the Beaune charity auction carry early November; after that I ease rates and lean on Christmas markets and festive dinners.
Price harvest and Hospices de Beaune auction weekend as the top bands.
Price May and June as a gastronomy shoulder.
Price Beaune and Côte d'Or villages separately from Dijon.
Use 3-night minimums in peak autumn.

Performance has flattened
RevPAR is stuck while the market around you moves on.
Opening, renovating or rebranding
A new positioning needs a pricing and distribution strategy built from scratch.
An owner wants a second opinion
You need the operator's numbers checked by someone outside the hotel.
You have a team but want a better plan
Someone prices today and wants an audit, a calendar and training.
Thirty minutes on your property, your market and where you think revenue leaks. I scope the work and confirm the price before starting.
With read-only access to your PMS, channel manager and extranets I analyse the data, shop your comp set and talk to whoever sets rates today.
A written report and a working session: the gaps ranked by value, the strategy to close them and a 12-month calendar.
Step 4
I can set the strategy up in your systems, train your team and check in monthly, or run it for you as outsourced management.
Every engagement is fixed-scope and fixed-price. After a free discovery call you get the scope and the price in writing before any work starts. Training days and monthly check-ins are quoted separately.

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!

For hotel revenue management consulting, that is where my audit begins, because a finding here changes every recommendation after it. How the listing explains distances to Beaune, Nuits-Saint-Georges and the wine routes, because guests choose a base by how much driving they will do after tastings.
Busiest in Dijon: September to October for the harvest, November for the Hospices de Beaune wine auction, and May to June. November and December: The Dijon gastronomy fair and the Beaune charity auction carry early November; after that I ease rates and lean on Christmas markets and festive dinners. April to June: Spring tastings and gastronomy weekends lift demand, so I firm up Friday and Saturday nights and allow two-night stays for couples touring the Côte de Nuits. For hotel revenue management consulting, my audit tests whether your current rates and restrictions capture these windows, and the 12-month calendar I hand over sets them in advance.
The autumn harvest and Beaune auction as the year's high point, a gastronomy-led shoulder season, and French registration for rural wine-country lets. For hotel revenue management consulting, I check every recommendation against the Dijon calendar before I make it. September and October: Picking weeks make Beaune and the villages the hardest beds to find in the region, and I hold weekend rates firm with three-night minimums close to the vines.
Dijon itself works as a city base with good rail links, while Beaune and the vineyard villages sell the wine experience. The two need separate prices even though they are a short drive apart. That is the view I bring to hotel revenue management consulting in Dijon.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Dijon the first gains from hotel revenue management consulting usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: price May and June as a gastronomy shoulder. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
Dijon sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. July and August: Summer brings touring families and cyclists on the vineyard paths, but fewer wine buyers, so I price steadily and avoid treating August as the year's peak. For hotel revenue management consulting in Dijon, my distribution review covers each channel's cost, contribution and rate position, then recommends a mix.
For hotel revenue management consulting, i begin with 12 to 24 months of your own data, so the first findings are about your property in Dijon, not the city. Price Beaune and Côte d'Or villages separately from Dijon. Next: display registration numbers.
Côte de Nuits villages: Gevrey-Chambertin and Vosne-Romanée appeal to serious wine travellers; I price these homes for longer, higher-value stays rather than one-night stopovers. Dijon centre and Beaune get their own treatment. For hotel revenue management consulting, i review your comp set and rate position for your own part of Dijon, not the market average.
