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 Île de Ré. Île de Ré and La Rochelle are two markets joined by a bridge. The island is a Parisian second-home world of bikes, oysters and white houses with green shutters, sold in summer weeks and long weekends. La Rochelle is a year-round city with Francofolies in July, the Grand Pavois boat show and Stade Rochelais rugby. I price the island on weeks and school holidays and the city on its events.
For an Île de Ré or La Rochelle owner I check the local rules, then build a year plan that splits island summer weeks, city events and the quieter months. I compare the property with real neighbours on the island or in the city, never with both together.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Île de Ré.
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.
Many hotels in La Rochelle and on Île de Ré price from habit, with summer rates set once and rarely changed. I review whether rugby weekends, festival weeks and the Grand Pavois are priced as the events they are, how the hotel handles business guests in winter and whether island hotels are using minimum stays well in summer.
I begin by comparing the hotel's rates for a rugby Saturday, Francofolies week and a February weekday with four named competitors near the old port or on the island.
Easter, the May bridges and the La Rochelle film festival bring Parisians and couples. I price long weekends strongly on the island and events in the city.
Francofolies fills La Rochelle and the island fills with families. I raise city rates for the festival and hold weekly stays across the island.
Salt marshes, quiet beaches and white villages. I price for weekly family stays and longer quiet breaks in spring and autumn.
My full Île de Ré calendar, areas, pricing moves and the mistakes I fix are on the revenue management consultant page for Île de Ré.
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.
Tell me about your property, your market and where you think revenue leaks, in the chat or by email. 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 scoping chat 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!

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. Bike storage and cycling access on the island, because most guests arrive by car but spend the week on two wheels, and secure storage is a feature worth showing.
Busiest in Île de Ré: July and August, with Francofolies festival in La Rochelle in July. July: Francofolies fills La Rochelle and the island fills with families. I raise city rates for the festival and hold weekly stays across the island. August: Every island village is full, and the bridge toll and traffic do not deter guests. I keep weekly minimums and resist late discounts, which rarely help here. 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.
Peak weekly pricing, festival premiums and La Rochelle's short-term rental registration rules. For hotel revenue management consulting, I check every recommendation against the Île de Ré calendar before I make it. August: Every island village is full, and the bridge toll and traffic do not deter guests. I keep weekly minimums and resist late discounts, which rarely help here.

Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number.

I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.

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 Île de Ré, not the city. Add Stade Rochelais home matches and the Grand Pavois to the city calendar. Next: open long weekends for Parisians from Easter to October.
La Rochelle old port and Les Minimes: The city centre and marina, busy with events, students and business. I price on events and weekends and keep weekday floors for work travel. Saint-Martin-de-Ré and Ars-en-Ré and the north of the island get their own treatment.
