Google Hotel Ads optimization is the work I do to make a property rank, convert and price correctly on Google. I set up your Google Business Profile, free booking links and Hotel Ads, and make sure your direct booking path is competitive.
What I plan around in The Dordogne: Sarlat and the castles of the Dordogne valley; Lascaux and the prehistoric caves of the Vézère; Canoeing and village markets; British second-home and gîte tradition. Guests I price for: British, Dutch and French families on weekly gîte and villa stays with pools. Where I start: Saturday-to-Saturday summer weeks, pool premiums and shoulder floors.
The Dordogne sells mostly through Booking.com, Airbnb, Abritel/Vrbo and Gîtes de France. For hotels and chambres d'hôtes in the Dordogne I work on short-season pricing, tour groups and couples' stays in the shoulders, using lessons from my time running revenue in larger hotels where each guest type needed its own rules and timing.
The service in general is described on my google hotel ads optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in The Dordogne.
Your profile is often the first thing a traveler sees. I complete it, correct the details and keep rates and availability accurate.
Free booking links cost nothing to appear in. I set them up, then judge whether paid Hotel Ads are worth it for your hotel.
A click only helps if the booking path converts. I review your site and engine against the OTAs and fix what loses the guest.
Reviews on these sites travel with the property. I set up a routine to collect and answer them consistently.
Visitors planning a Dordogne trip often use Google Maps to compare hotels by distance from Sarlat, the river and the caves. I make sure the profile shows current photos of the rooms, terrace and pool, that the pin is accurate in rural lanes and that free booking links are active, so the direct rate shows beside OTA prices.
My first task is to check direct-rate accuracy on Google for the summer, then add a simple perk such as a picnic or canoe booking help for direct guests.
Easter, the May bridges and walking groups wake the valley. I price long weekends well and keep weekly rates moderate to tempt early-season families.
Couples and retirees come for markets, canoeing and quiet castles. I offer three or four-night stays at good rates and avoid discounts that would undersell the month.
The busiest part, with Sarlat's market and the castles of the valley. I price highest here and expect full weeks through the summer.
My full The Dordogne calendar, areas, pricing moves and the mistakes I fix are on the revenue management consultant page for The Dordogne.
Google shows your hotel, your rates and your OTAs side by side, and the direct link only wins if it is accurate and competitive. A modest amount of careful setup here is the cheapest way I know to move bookings off commission-heavy channels.
A new Google listing
You have just connected Google and want it to rank and convert from the first weeks, not after months of guessing.
Views but few bookings
Visibility looks fine and conversion does not, which usually means content, photos or rate plans on Google.
Commission without much return
You pay Google commission and its share of bookings is small next to your other channels.
A portfolio with uneven quality
Some listings are polished on Google and others were never finished, and nobody owns the standard.
Send me the Google listing or property links and your channel manager. I check how the property ranks and reads today before we speak.
A scorecard for Google: content, photos, rates and promotions, policies and reviews, with every fix ranked by impact.
I make the changes live on Zoom in your Google account or through your channel manager, and explain each one so you can maintain it.
Step 4
About 30 days later I look at impressions, conversion and booking share on Google and adjust what the numbers say to adjust.
I quote Google Hotel Ads optimization per property after a short chat. You get a fixed scope and price before any work starts.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Single property | Google Hotel Ads optimization for one property | Quoted |
| Several properties | One scope and one price for a group on Google Hotel Ads | Quoted |
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!

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!
