Hotelogix, a leading Global Property Management System (PMS), has recently launched the Hourly Booking capability, allowing hotels across the globe to unlock the flexibility of the sector while driving revenues. This innovative feature targets today’s traveller who seeks flexibility and cost effectiveness and gives the opportunity to pay only for the hours used in the hotel room.
As the world continues to progress rapidly, there comes a time for many when more open-ended housing instructions are necessary. From hastened business professionals in need of a break between meetings, stranded passengers unable to leave the airport or depressed workers unable to return home but needing a productive workspace, hourly bookings are filling the void.
This trend has grown all over the world, and this segment alone was valued at $16.67 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach $25.62 billion by 2027. Its major thrust markets are the US, the UK, and India, as well as the countries in the Southeast Asia region.
Giving guests the ability to book a stay at up to 60% less than a regular overnight rate, hourly bookings are changing the hospitality industry. In airports, transportation facilities, and business focus areas, for example, capsule hotels, transit hotels, and specific niche market hotels, the hotel business is booming under this system.
Hotelogix has a new state-of-the-Art Hourly Booking Module
Hotelogix’s innovative Property Management System (PMS) provides hotels with tools to improve their services. It offers flexible hourly packages and discounts for guests, along with options like late check-out.
The new analytics feature generates custom reports on revenue, guest sources, and booking trends, helping hotels make better decisions. Additionally, revenue optimization mechanisms ensure that hotels can maximize returns during availability gaps without overburdening operations.
Hotelogix CEO Aditya Sanghi said that he particularly likes “the hourly booking feature—this is new school.” This creates an opportunity for hoteliers to be able to meet the ever-changing demands of customers as well as to capture new sources of hotel revenue streams. This places Hotelogix at the forefront of the sector and our clients to lead on the way forward.
Philippines-based GCGC (Global Comfort Group Corporation) is a prime example of the success achievable with Hotelogix’s hourly booking feature. Managing over 60 properties, including brands like Hotel Sogo, Eurotel, and DreamWorld, GCGC has leveraged the feature to achieve remarkable results.This has led to impressive results, including 750+ hourly bookings per month and a 40% revenue growth per room. The model has improved occupancy rates and increased revenue without adding operational pressure.
Alexander Asuncion, COO of Global Officium Limited Inc. (GOLI) and Senior Executive at GCGC, highlighted, “Hourly bookings allow us to cater to a market segment that prioritizes affordability and exceptional service. Hotelogix’s PMS makes it seamless to implement and manage this offering.”
As the hospitality industry evolves, innovations like Hotelogix’s hourly booking feature are shaping its future. By providing unmatched flexibility and affordability, hotels can cater to the ever-changing preferences of modern travelers while enhancing profitability.
