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 Killarney. Killarney and the Ring of Kerry run a compressed, tour-driven summer. Self-drive and coach visitors stay two or three nights before touring the peninsulas, and Skellig Michael draws Star Wars fans. Winter is long and quiet. Killarney town is the natural base, but homes on the peninsulas attract guests who want quieter scenery. I price them on separate comps and adjust minimum stays to how people tour.
For a Kerry owner I start with registration and the property's position on the touring routes, then build a season around summer coaches, self-drive guests and events like the Rally of the Lakes. I also plan the long winter and decide whether opening is worthwhile.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Killarney.
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 and attractions close, so I price Killarney town homes for walkers, golfers and short breaks and leave remote peninsula homes closed or on monthly terms.
Easter and the Rally of the Lakes on the May bank holiday bring the first busy weekends; I price the rally as a premium and keep other dates flexible.
Coach and self-drive tourists fill Killarney and the Ring; I price two to three night stays at the top, with an extra lift for the July racing festival.
Touring continues and Skellig boat trips run until the end of September, weather permitting; I keep rates strong into October and soften midweek gradually.
Christmas markets, concerts at the INEC and festive breaks give some lift; I price those weekends firmly and keep a sensible floor for the rest.
Price June to September as the main season.
Add Rally of the Lakes and summer racing as premiums.
Use 2 to 3-night stays for touring guests.
Offer festive winter breaks.

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.

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!
