Amadeus has stated that more than 300 hotels around the world have opted for Amadeus Hotel Revenue Management System (RMS) since January.

The solution, which gives hotel chains and individual properties the information they need to charge the right price to the right customer at the right time, typically see revenue increase by at least 4-8 percent for hotels, according to Amadeus. It added that Accor, Golden Tulip, Le Meridien, Jolly Hotels and Park Plaza have all increased their adoption of Amadeus Hotel RMS this year.

“Revenue management is a key part of Amadeus’ IT offer to the hospitality industry,” says Antoine Medawar, managing director, Amadeus Hospitality Business Group, “and more and more hotels are recognising the need for a single, integrated set of solutions in which property- and revenue management systems work seamlessly together with central reservation- and distribution solutions. This is the Amadeus proposition.”

“Amadeus Hotel RMS is a powerful decision support tool which optimises the revenue on each available room (RevPAR) by providing the manager with business performance data and forecasting future demand. Amadeus Hotel RMS offers over 250 distinct and customisable reports including performance by distribution channel, country of origin and room class,” stated the company.

“The solution forecasts future demand with unparalleled accuracy, using advanced software which “learns” from experience to greatly improved demand prediction over time. Performance and forecasting data is then combined to help hotel managers quote the price that will yield the highest RevPAR. Business rules (eg minimum sale price or minimum stay length) can be defined for a single property, a whole chain or a subset of properties,” it added.
