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 Nantes: Les Machines de l'ile and the Grand Elephant; Le Voyage a Nantes summer art trail; La Baule Atlantic beaches; Guerande salt marshes. Guests I price for: families and culture-led travellers on 3 to 6 night stays between central Nantes and the coast at La Baule and Pornic. Where I start: a summer art-trail and beach peak, splitting demand between the city and the Atlantic coast, and French meuble de tourisme registration.
My early career was spent in five-star hotels, so for Nantes hotels I look at the balance between business travel, conferences and summer leisure, set fences for festival weekends, and choose a comp set that separates city-centre properties from those near the station or the coast.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Nantes.
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.
“Nantes and the Atlantic coast split summer between an art trail and the beaches. Le Voyage à Nantes and Les Machines de l'Île fill the city in July and August, while La Baule and Pornic sell family beach weeks. Winter is quiet. I price city and coast on separate curves.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
La Folle Journée fills concert halls around late January or early February, so I mark those days as a city event and keep the rest of winter at a sensible floor.
Quiet weeks in the city and closed beach houses mean I lean on business visitors and Easter weekends, with flexible two-night stays and no aggressive premiums.
The big metal festival at nearby Clisson draws fans from across Europe for one weekend; I price that block hard in the south of the city and let the coast warm up.
The summer art trail brings families into the centre and the coast fills with weekly beach stays, so I run the two on different minimum-stay rules.
Business demand returns and coastal weekends stay pleasant into October, then I ease rates and keep city weekends steady through the Christmas period.

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.

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 Nantes: July and August for Le Voyage a Nantes and the La Baule beaches. June: The big metal festival at nearby Clisson draws fans from across Europe for one weekend; I price that block hard in the south of the city and let the coast warm up. July and August: The summer art trail brings families into the centre and the coast fills with weekly beach stays, so I run the two on different minimum-stay rules. 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. How the coastal listings explain the drive or train to Nantes, since many guests want a beach week with one or two city days and choose the base that makes both easy.
Use 2-night weekend minimums in the city. Next: display registration numbers. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Nantes 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 Nantes: November to February. January and February: La Folle Journée fills concert halls around late January or early February, so I mark those days as a city event and keep the rest of winter at a sensible floor. March to May: Quiet weeks in the city and closed beach houses mean I lean on business visitors and Easter weekends, with flexible two-night stays and no aggressive premiums.
Short stays in peak coastal summer and winter priced like summer. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Nantes, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Nantes, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Nantes sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Abritel. March to May: Quiet weeks in the city and closed beach houses mean I lean on business visitors and Easter weekends, with flexible two-night stays and no aggressive premiums.
Bouffay and the château: The medieval quarter near the Dukes' castle draws culture-focused couples and weekenders; I price it as the city's premium choice and protect summer evenings. Île de Nantes and La Baule and Pornic 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.
Guerande salt marshes, Les Machines de l'ile and the Grand Elephant and Le Voyage a Nantes summer art trail are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Nantes. September to December: Business demand returns and coastal weekends stay pleasant into October, then I ease rates and keep city weekends steady through the Christmas period.
