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 The Peak District. The Peak District is a weekend walking market for Manchester and Sheffield. Bank holidays, Easter and half-terms sell out first, Chatsworth's Christmas market helps winter, and midweeks are the weak spot. I price bank holidays hard and use three-night midweek offers to fill the gaps.
For Peak District owners I review how each cottage compares with nearby villages, whether midweek offers are working and how bank holidays and half-terms are priced. I then set out a plan that keeps weekends strong and builds steady midweek business across the year.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in The Peak District.
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.

Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Walkers and couples still come for frosty weekends on Kinder Scout and Mam Tor, so I price two-night breaks with a floor that covers heating and avoid opening single nights.
Easter and the May bank holidays move first, and well dressing begins in Tissington, so I price those weekends as premiums and keep midweek spring breaks attractive for retired walkers.
Summer weekends sell first, the Buxton Festival fills the town in July and well dressings run across the villages, so I price event weeks up and use three-night midweek stays to fill gaps.
Autumn walkers and half-term families keep weekends busy, so I hold Friday and Saturday rates and offer shorter midweek stays for couples.
The Chatsworth Christmas market and festive breaks fill weekends from November, so I raise Saturday rates near Bakewell and Baslow and price Christmas and New Year as blocks.
Price every bank-holiday weekend and half-term as premiums.
Add Chatsworth Christmas market weekends.
Offer 3-night midweek breaks at a discount.
Price dog-friendly cottages as a tier.
Lower January and February floors.
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 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. Whether parking is clear and realistic, as village streets in Castleton, Hathersage and Bakewell fill quickly on busy weekends and guests worry about it before booking.
Busiest in The Peak District: May to September for walking and cycling, with strong Easter and every bank-holiday weekend. June to August: Summer weekends sell first, the Buxton Festival fills the town in July and well dressings run across the villages, so I price event weeks up and use three-night midweek stays to fill gaps. November to December: The Chatsworth Christmas market and festive breaks fill weekends from November, so I raise Saturday rates near Bakewell and Baslow and price Christmas and New Year as blocks. 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.
