Booking.com optimization for rentals is the work I do to make a property rank, convert and price correctly on Booking.com. I audit the listing, complete the content score, tune photos, rate plans, deals and policies, and make the changes with you on Zoom.
What I plan around in St. Moritz: White Turf horse racing on the frozen lake each February; snow polo and the historic Cresta Run toboggan track; the Engadin Skimarathon and the Corvatsch slopes each March; the Bernina Express and high-altitude Engadin summer hiking. Guests I price for: Affluent international skiers and long-stay chalet parties in winter, plus summer hikers and wellness guests around St. Moritz, Pontresina and Celerina. Where I start: Pricing a premium luxury market where winter and marquee events command the highest rates, sustaining a real summer season, and observing Lex Koller ownership limits and local tourist tax.
St. Moritz sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Expedia. I configure PriceLabs or Wheelhouse for St. Moritz hosts with White Turf, Snow Polo, the Gourmet Festival and the Skimarathon as events, weekly stays at Christmas and summer family rules. Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Expedia show the same total, including tourist tax.
The service in general is described on my booking.com listing optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in St. Moritz.
Booking.com scores how complete a listing is. I fill the fields, rewrite descriptions for the guests who book there and tidy room details.
I choose the cover and order the gallery against the nearest competing listings.
I structure rate plans and judge which promotions and Genius levels pay for themselves.
Cancellation terms and review scores feed ranking, so I tune both and write reply templates.
“St. Moritz is a luxury winter market with marquee events: White Turf on the frozen lake in February, snow polo and the Engadin Skimarathon. Affluent guests book long chalet stays, and summer is a real second season. Pricing has to match the luxury positioning.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
The holiday fortnight sells first and at the highest rate. I hold weekly stays for chalets and stop any discounting, even if dates look open in early December.
Snow Polo, the Gourmet Festival and the three White Turf Sundays keep weekends strong; I price each event weekend individually and keep midweek nights firm for longer ski stays.
The Engadin Skimarathon weekend and spring skiing on Corvatsch bring long stays. I price the marathon weekend above the rest of March and ease rates after Easter.
Many hotels and shops close, so I keep a dignified floor, accept longer stays and avoid heavy discounts that clash with luxury positioning.
Hiking, kitesurfing at Silvaplana and the jazz festival make a real summer season. I sell weekly stays for families and price lake and mountain views well.
The valley shuts down, so I keep floors steady and focus on long stays and repeat guests rather than chasing short bookings.
Many hosts connect Booking.com once and never return, then wonder why it brings so little. The channel rewards completeness and price position, and it reaches guests who never open Airbnb. I fix the listing and tie its rates to your pricing strategy.
Price White Turf and snow polo weekends as premiums.
Price Christmas to New Year as the top band.
Use long stays for chalets.
Build a summer hiking and wellness season.
Include local tourist tax.
A new Booking.com listing
You have just connected Booking.com and want it to rank and convert from the first weeks, not after months of guessing.
Views but few bookings
Visibility looks fine and conversion does not, which usually means content, photos or rate plans on Booking.com.
Commission without much return
You pay Booking.com commission and its share of bookings is small next to your other channels.
A portfolio with uneven quality
Some listings are polished on Booking.com and others were never finished, and nobody owns the standard.
Send me the Booking.com listing or property links and your channel manager. I check how the property ranks and reads today before we speak.
A scorecard for Booking.com: content, photos, rates and promotions, policies and reviews, with every fix ranked by impact.
I make the changes live on Zoom in your Booking.com account or through your channel manager, and explain each one so you can maintain it.
Step 4
About 30 days later I look at impressions, conversion and booking share on Booking.com and adjust what the numbers say to adjust.
Booking.com optimization has three fixed-price plans, priced by listing count, from $95. Each is a live Zoom session with a full audit and the fixes made on the spot.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Single | 1 listing, 30-minute session | $95 |
| Portfolio | 2 to 4 listings, 45-minute session | $145 |
| Scale | 5 to 8 listings, 60-minute session | $245 |
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!
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!

Demand is driven by the Bernina Express and high-altitude Engadin summer hiking and White Turf horse racing on the frozen lake each February.
Pontresina: Quieter and close to the Diavolezza and Bernina Express, so I price it for families and hikers with strong summer stays. St. Moritz Dorf and Celerina and Samedan get their own treatment.

For Booking.com optimization for rentals, the first changes on Booking.com are content completeness and the cover photo, because those decide whether a St. Moritz traveler clicks. Use long stays for chalets. Next: include local tourist tax.
Whether the property is a permitted holiday rental under the second-home rules and the commune's regulations, because Lex Weber and local restrictions change what a property can do.
