“Newcastle and Northumberland are two businesses under one name. The city sells match days, the Quayside and the Great North Run in September, often to groups on two-night weekends. The coast sells castle country and cottage weeks around Bamburgh and Alnwick. I keep separate strategies so each earns what it should.”

The moves Alaa makes first when a hotel or host in Newcastle books a session, and the errors he corrects most often. Every one is set up inside your own pricing tool, so it keeps working after the call.
Price Great North Run weekend as the top city band with 2-night minimums.
Add Newcastle United home fixtures as match-day premiums.
Run Northumberland coast cottages on weekly summer stays.
Set group rules for Quayside stag and hen bookings.

City flats live on football, gigs and contractors in winter, while coastal cottages fall quiet; I price the two separately and offer dark-sky breaks near Kielder for stargazers on clear-night weekends.
Easter opens the coast, graduations fill Newcastle in summer and the Hoppings funfair lands on the Town Moor in June, so I price each of those as its own date or week.
Northumberland castles, beaches and Holy Island draw families for full weeks, so I set weekly coastal prices early and keep city flats priced for weekend visitors and gig-goers.
The Great North Run weekend spikes the city, and I make sure Gateshead and Tynemouth homes are priced up too, since runners and supporters spill out of Newcastle quickly.
Students, football and Christmas markets keep the city steady, while coastal cottages switch to short autumn and winter breaks, priced to cover heating and cleaning on two-night stays.
One person does the thinking on your account. Choose the kind of help your property in Newcastle needs; everything is remote, 1-on-1 and scheduled in your time zone.
For owners in Newcastle and Northumberland I separate city and coast strategies, review comp sets and group rules, and build a calendar that covers the Great North Run, football, graduations and summer cottage weeks. It suits owners who have one of each type of property or are deciding where to buy next.
I set up pricing with you so city flats carry event premiums and weekday floors, while coastal cottages run on weekly summer pricing and short breaks the rest of the year. Both stay consistent across Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo, with different minimum-stay rules for each type of home.
For Newcastle hotels and Northumberland inns I work on event-led forecasting, corporate and leisure segmentation and weekend packages for the coast, using what I learned in five-star chain hotels to plan around the Great North Run, football and the summer castle trail.

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!
Airbnb host
As the top city weekend, opened early, with 2-night minimums.
In summer, usually yes, with short breaks in spring and autumn.
It can be, but demand shifts to short breaks. Walkers, birdwatchers and couples come in spring and autumn, especially to Bamburgh, Seahouses and Alnwick. I switch from weekly stays to two and three night breaks and price them to cover costs while keeping the cottage in front of these guests.
Yes. Both universities hold ceremonies that bring parents and families into the city for one or two nights. I load the dates as soon as they are published and price Jesmond and city-centre flats up for those days, as families often book months ahead.
