The partnership with STAAH includes using the company’s Max platform – channel manager and booking engine. The former gives The Cambridge Hotel the power to reach audiences internationally with real-time updates of rates and inventory.
“It is essential we place revenue management at the core of our distribution strategy. Dynamic rate management is central,” says Carissa. “STAAH Max Booking Engine has empowered our staff to achieve exactly this. We can now better understand supply and demand, and optimise our strategy for greater performance.”
In addition to its advanced pricing and inventory management capabilities, STAAH Max Booking Engine is designed to convert through simple additions such as the WatchMyRate widget. A conversion booster, it turns lookers into bookers by showcasing comparative room rates on OTAs.
