Suites Success for Crystalbrook Collection

REVENUE MANAGEMENT

Crystalbrook Collection is a portfolio of seven distinctive hotels and resorts in Australia. The company rolled out Duetto to all its properties in 2017 and has been running its revenue through Duetto GameChanger and ScoreBoard ever since, using the solutions to drive creative packaging and overall revenue strategy.

Why it matters: The Crystalbrook Collection embraced Open Pricing to enable the seven hotels to price competitively by yielding all segments, room types, and distribution channels independently and in real time.

Crystalbrook Collection uses Open Pricing to not only optimize rates during high-demand periods but to also drive buy-up into higher room categories on low-demand periods by decreasing discounts.

Top 3 Core Objectives: The hotel company was looking to increase revenue across all segments and adopt room-type pricing to optimize rates in line with market demand.
