Hotel group Leeu Collection has, in recent years, grown its portfolio to include not only iconic South African properties such as Le Quartier Francais, but also international properties which share its ethos. To help manage its international growth, the hotel group has chosen IDeaS Pricing System to increase operational efficiency and boost revenue. IDeaS equips clients with clear view of their data through pricing, forecasting and optimisation strategies.

“Our European expansion means our portfolio now includes luxury hotels in Florence and England’s Lake District – and in 2019, it will include a new venue in London’s West End,” said Claire Edwards, Director of Yield, Revenue & Sales . “However, operating internationally inevitably brings a range of new challenges, including how to best manage costs and maximise revenue.”

“By using the IDeaS Pricing System across our entire estate, we can operate more efficiently through automating pricing decisions and eliminating many of our manual practices. It also allows us to take a more scientific approach to forecasting and our overall revenue strategy. The IDeaS Pricing System is a cost-effective way to give our busy hotel managers immediate access to industry leading visual analytics and reporting capabilities.”

IDeaS will be running a seminar in South Africa later this year to illustrate the extraordinary opportunities made possible through automated pricing and revenue management practices. For more information, visit www.ideas.com.
