SIHOT.RATES+
Flexible rate structures for your rate management
Features
BAR level or open pricing
The starting point of this fast revenue system is a base rate. This may be a regular BAR level or a substantially more dynamic open price. Both are possible – the combination is the key!
The well-known BAR offers an effective way to maximise revenues. The individual BAR levels contain set rates applicable for days with high or low demand and any in between. In the BAR production dialog, you simply specify which BAR level will be applied on which day. Accordingly, bookings show this pre-determined rate.
The open pricing function in SIHOT, however, is a completely open structure, where any price at all is possible. This allows for fluid rate values with small nuances, which may generate valuable extra income for your property.
Derived Rates
In addition, you can use derived rates in multiple tiers! This is how it works: your base rate consists of a floating price for accommodation only. From this, you derive a rate per room, whereby each category is given a separate price by adding a fixed amount or a percentage. These category supplements, in turn, may vary according to different seasons or specific defined periods. The next tiers may consist of different boards, for example breakfast and half board. Now apply a discount on the rate for half board for arrivals on a Friday or Saturday with a minimum 2 nights stay – and there’s your “Weekend Special”.
Derived rates are very convenient for diversified packages that target specific markets and for special promotions. They are especially useful for corporate business, together with advance purchase and non-refundable rates that are becoming increasingly popular for online booking platforms.
