“Thessaloniki and Halkidiki are two markets. Halkidiki's beaches sell weekly summer stays to Balkan and European families, while Thessaloniki's peak is autumn with the International Fair and Film Festival. I price the coast by the week and the city by events.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
The moves Alaa makes first when a hotel or host in Thessaloniki 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.
Run Halkidiki homes on weekly summer stays.
Price the Thessaloniki International Fair and Film Festival as premiums.
Price Thessaloniki for student-calendar demand.
Keep AMA registration numbers visible.
Set coastal off-season floors.

Halkidiki homes mostly close, while Thessaloniki relies on students, business visitors and the Film Festival; I price city flats for monthly stays and short event peaks.
Easter and warm weekends bring Balkan drivers to the coast and city breakers to Thessaloniki; I price weekends firmly and keep midweek stays flexible.
Kassandra and Sithonia fill with families on weekly stays, so I run Saturday changeovers and price July and August highest.
The International Fair in September and student arrivals lift the city, while Halkidiki stays warm; I price both firmly and relax stay lengths in October.
One person does the thinking on your account. Choose the kind of help your property in Thessaloniki needs; everything is remote, 1-on-1 and scheduled in your time zone.
For Thessaloniki or Halkidiki I separate the city from the coast, check the AMA status and decide who your guests really are: students and their parents, fair and festival visitors, or beach families driving down from the Balkans. I then build a full-year plan with clear targets for each month and each type of guest.
In PriceLabs or Wheelhouse I set weekly summer stays for Halkidiki and dated events for Thessaloniki, such as the September fair and the November Film Festival, aligning Airbnb and Booking.com so rates and rules match. That keeps the coast full in summer and the city earning through autumn and winter.
From my years in five-star hotels I help Thessaloniki city hotels manage fair, congress and university demand, and Halkidiki resorts balance tour operator allotments with direct Balkan drive-in guests. I focus on release dates, segment mix and pricing the shoulder months realistically rather than filling them with deep discounts.

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!
Airbnb host
Autumn, with the International Fair and Film Festival.
In summer, usually yes.
Yes, but less than the Film Festival in November. The Documentary Festival in March brings filmmakers, press and cinema fans to the screens around the port warehouses for about ten days, so I lift weekends near the waterfront and Ladadika modestly and keep weekdays flexible for students and business guests.
Both, but in different ways. Balkan families often drive down and book closer to the date, while Western Europeans fly into Thessaloniki and book earlier. I keep a share of summer weeks open for late drive-in bookings, price the early-booking weeks firmly and make parking and air conditioning very clear in the listing.
Yes. Alaa has optimized 100+ properties in and around Thessaloniki, from single Airbnb listings and small hotels to management companies running hundreds of units. Everything is remote on Zoom, scheduled in Eastern European Time (UTC+2).
