🏨 Over half (52%) of travellers require the ability to cancel their hotel stay for free within 24 to 48 hours of arrival. Hotels must offer flexible pricing to meet the new traveller expectations post-pandemic. Flexible rates can improve conversion, increase direct bookings, and optimize RevPAR. Strategies include exclusive website offers, multiple cancellation options, and clear communication. AI can further enhance flexible pricing strategies, as seen with the Elysée Val d’Europe hotel tripling its direct bookings. Balancing flexibility and profitability is crucial to mitigate risks such as last-minute cancellations.

📝 PMS is the foundational tool for operational client communications (reservations, confirmations, payments). Communication solutions allow for programmed messaging (SMS, email) and free up staff time by automating client contact. A CRM goes further by managing detailed client databases for personalized experiences and marketing strategies. It's advised to choose a CRM and communication solutions that are connected to your PMS, and while non-hotel-specific software exists, they may not integrate as seamlessly with hotel systems. Thaïs PMS offers client communication modules and connects with other communication solutions and CRMs like Experience or LoungeUp.

Effective tech ecosystems require prioritizing operational needs, ensuring tool interconnectivity, and testing before adopting. The process can take six to eight months, emphasizing the need for structured approaches and team training.
