Minor Hotels, a leading global hospitality company with over 550 properties across 56 countries, has defied seasonal trends and delivered a robust first quarter of 2024. Their impressive performance, exceeding both revenue and profit expectations, highlights the resilience of the travel industry and Minor Hotels' strategic approach to portfolio management. Minor Hotels Outperforms in Q1 2024 Surpassing Expectations: A Financially Strong Start to 2024 Minor Hotels reported a net profit of THB 530 million for Q1 2024, a significant accomplishment considering the historically slower first quarter for European hospitality. This achievement can be attributed to several factors: Sustained Travel Activity: The continued rise in global travel demand played a crucial role in Minor Hotels' success. Despite challenges like seasonality, strong demand helped offset historical patterns and fueled positive revenue generation. Revenue Growth Across the Board: Core revenue for Q1 reached THB 29.6 billion, reflecting a substantial 17% year-over-year increase. This growth reflects healthy rate increases across the group's portfolio, particularly in key regions like Europe and Thailand. Strong Performance from Owned and Leased Properties: Minor Hotels' owned and leased properties emerged as a significant contributor to the company's financial strength. These properties accounted for 80% of core hotel and mixed-use revenues, showcasing a 21% year-on-year increase. This growth underscores the effectiveness of Minor Hotels' ownership and management strategies. Management Income Surge: Management income also saw a significant leap, rising 26% year-on-year. This growth is likely due to a combination of RevPAR increases across managed hotels and the addition of new management contracts throughout the year. Defying Seasonality: Europe Shows Positive Signs The European hospitality sector typically experiences a slow start to the year. However, Minor Hotels, with a vast portfolio of nearly 300 properties in Europe, managed to defy this trend. Here's what contributed to their success: Continued Global Demand: As mentioned earlier, sustained global travel demand transcended regional seasonality. This robust demand helped generate strong revenue and narrow Minor Hotels' quarterly core net loss to THB 968 million, a significant improvement compared to Q1 2023. Regional Strength: Thailand and Middle East & Africa Thrive Beyond Europe, Minor Hotels reported positive growth across other key regions: Thailand: Occupancy rates in Thailand demonstrated a remarkable improvement, with an overall increase of 10 percentage points compared to Q1 2023. This surge resulted in an impressive average occupancy rate of 80%, exceeding expectations. Middle East & Africa (MEA): Hotels in the MEA region also enjoyed strong growth, with occupancy rates rising by 11 percentage points to 65%. This positive trend was driven by popular brands like Anantara, Tivoli, and NH Collection. Rising Rates and RevPAR Fuel Profitability Another key contributor to Minor Hotels' success was the positive growth in Average Daily Rate (ADR). Here's a breakdown of this growth across different regions: Global Rate Growth: System-wide ADR figures for Q1 saw a positive increase of 11% year-on-year. Owned properties played a leading role in this growth, with a 14% year-on-year increase in ADR. Thailand's Strong Performance: In line with its remarkable occupancy figures, Thailand again emerged as a top performer, demonstrating a 12% increase in ADR across its properties. Europe and the Americas: While not experiencing the same magnitude of growth as Thailand, Europe and the Americas still displayed a positive trajectory. Rates in these regions saw an average increase of 13% when calculated in THB terms. This translated to a significant 18% growth in RevPAR (Revenue Per Available Room). Overall, system-wide RevPAR saw a 19% year-on-year increase. Notably, owned and leased properties significantly outperformed expectations. These properties experienced RevPAR growth of 21% compared to the prior year and a staggering 35% increase compared to pre-pandemic levels (2019). A Bright Future: Continued Expansion and Growth Dillip Rajakarier, CEO of Minor Hotels and Group CEO of Minor International, expressed optimism for the future based on these exceptional Q1 results. He highlighted the "agility and dynamic nature" of the company's global portfolio as key factors behind its success. Additionally, strong forward bookings suggest continued momentum and an exceptional year ahead.

work has been throttling me with things, but Karen got me and now that revpar is done I can stand on a box for a few minutes, you all signed up for it.

I have so many questions, and all of them lead back to the same heartache place - so we all know I live in a canon-divergent space, but I'll step out of my box to hurt myself.

everything boils down to love. if i am to just stand here and wait for you all to yell at me, why don't we look at trick's romance route for a moment, what happens to lavellan? what does varric see happen? anyone in the class? anyone?

no? okay.

lavellan is for lack of better terms jilted. we have no canonical text to thing that varric was actually jilted but let us continue to unpack things, varric was in a fifteen year whatever, situationship is a shitty thing to call it but like it was letters mostly as he's got a bounty on his head ( real replay well shit and tell me what that stabbing line is about - then go play all new faded for her and sob ) so I have nothing better. varric watches that happen and sees his friend go through one of the hardest times of their lives back to back to back to back, again. so seeing all of this fucking shit, and his own fresh in his mind, why wouldn't he help. for someone so scorned by love he does believe in it. and he's on those stairs for two of his friends, getting involved as sometimes we shouldn't. glass hearts always break.

now, any other romance/nonromance - in a canon space - why would varric do it? solas is still worth it. that's his friend, maybe not a good time pal anymore, but he is someone that varric still cares about and he's bad at putting people down. Especially lost causes, especially black sheep, especially loners, and people who have given up and do not think they are worth it.

when it comes to sid? varric has a debt to pay, and he doesn't let a debt go unpaid. his friend needs help, and he's bad at leaving things alone.

Why Are Luxury Hotel Investments Recession-Resilient?

Investors frequently look for assets that provide long-term reliability during unpredictable economic times. Luxury hotels and resorts have shown a great capacity to resist economic downturns, although many other businesses suffer during recessions.

In contrast to low-cost travel or mid-range lodging, luxury hotels serve a specific market that is mostly immune to changes in the economy. Because of this, investing in luxury hotels is a wise and recession-proof asset class.

Ananta Hotels & Resorts, one of the luxury hospitality companies with the fastest pace of development in India, is a prime example of how high-end hotel investments provide long-term growth and financial stability.

Let's explore the main elements that, even in recessionary times, make investing in luxury hotels a secure and lucrative choice.

Luxury traveling is always in demand

The world's wealthiest travelers still place a high value on comfort, exclusivity, and first-rate experiences, even during difficult economic times. High-net-worth and ultra-rich people (HNWIs) have the resources to support their lifestyle preferences, which include business travel, wellness retreats, and luxury vacations.

Why does this affect investors?

Because of the generally steady demand in their market, luxury hotels can maintain steady occupancy rates and income streams. In contrast to inexpensive hotels, which see a dramatic drop in reservations during recessions, upscale resorts continue to attract a devoted customer base.

Profit margins are protected via premium pricing

Because they charge higher rates, luxury hotels can stay profitable despite changes in demand. Guests who stay at exclusive resorts are not as price-sensitive as budget vacationers.

The following are the main advantages for investors:

Increased Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR): Because luxury hotels charge higher prices, they can maintain profitability over time.

Unique offerings back pricing: Personalized services and top-notch facilities help luxury resorts keep their pricing power even during recessions.

Diverse revenue streams: In addition to hotel reservations, luxurious hotels also make money from business events, weddings, wellness retreats, and fine dining.

The growth of experiential tourism and "revenge travel"

Many people still prioritize travel, even in challenging economic times, particularly following periods of limited migration (like the COVID-19 epidemic). The growth of "revenge travel," in which consumers spend more money on upscale experiences during recessions, ensures the survival of high-end hospitality businesses.

What does this signify for investors in luxury hotels?

For premium vacations, wellness retreats, or private retreats, people are prepared to spend money on worthwhile, upscale experiences.

As experiential travel gains popularity, luxury resorts become more appealing than conventional hotels.

Long-term success is the aim of properties like Ananta Hotels & Resorts that offer distinctive, high-value experiences.

Long-term asset growth and minimal competition in the market

The luxury hospitality industry is exclusive, with little competition and high entrance hurdles, in contrast to mass-market hotels. Because of this shortage, well-known companies like Ananta Hotels & Resorts are excellent investments with significant growth potential.

How do high-end hotels ensure investor’s long-term profits?

Prime places: To ensure long-term value, upscale resorts are frequently constructed in recognizable, in-demand places.

Brand loyalty & reputation: Well-known luxury brands, like Ananta, ensure consistent reservations and a high rate of client retention.

Sustainable growth & expansion: Ananta is strategically developing in important tourism and commercial hotspots, ensuring consistent asset value appreciation, with a growing portfolio in over 18 locations.

Invest in luxury, invest with Ananta

Even in times of economic recession, luxury hotels continue to be a reliable and profitable business. High-end hospitality is one of the greatest industries to invest in because of its steady demand, premium pricing, variety of income sources, and long-term growth.

Investors can be sure of long-term value growth and consistent profitability because of Ananta Hotels & Resorts' unrivaled luxury experience, solid market positioning, and growing presence.

Small Hotel Management Software: Empowering Independent Properties in a Competitive Market

Introduction

Small hotels play a vital role in the hospitality industry. Whether it’s a countryside inn, a boutique city property, or a cozy beachfront retreat, these independently owned establishments offer unique experiences that chain hotels often can’t match. But delivering exceptional service consistently—and profitably—requires more than great hospitality. It demands efficient operations, accurate forecasting, and seamless guest communication.

As guest expectations rise and online bookings dominate the travel landscape, small hotel management software becomes a powerful asset for property owners who want to run a lean operation while staying ahead of the competition.

The Operational Struggles of Small Hotels

Smaller properties often work with limited staff and resources. This puts immense pressure on owners or managers, who may juggle multiple responsibilities such as guest relations, reservations, invoicing, marketing, and staff coordination. Without centralized tools, these tasks can become overwhelming, resulting in:

Overbookings due to unsynced calendars

Delays in responding to guest inquiries

Manual entry errors in billing or room assignments

Inconsistent service delivery due to miscommunication

Limited visibility into performance metrics

These problems not only affect profitability but can also damage your reputation with guests who expect seamless service from booking to checkout.

The Benefits of Small Hotel Management Software

Modern small hotel management software is purpose-built to solve these pain points. With the right solution, even a solo operator can run a hotel with the sophistication of a larger chain. Core benefits include:

Centralized Reservation Management: Handle all bookings from direct, OTA, and corporate channels in one place.

Automated Guest Communications: Set up confirmation emails, pre-arrival messages, and post-stay follow-ups without manual input.

Integrated Channel Management: Sync with platforms like Booking.com, Expedia, and Airbnb to update rates and availability in real-time.

Housekeeping Coordination: Track room statuses and assign tasks from a mobile device, ensuring nothing is missed.

Dynamic Pricing Tools: Adjust rates automatically based on demand trends, seasonality, or occupancy levels.

Financial and Operational Reporting: Access dashboards that help you understand occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, and profitability.

These tools enable independent hoteliers to work smarter, eliminate guesswork, and focus more time on enhancing the guest experience.

Competing in a Tech-Driven Industry

It’s no secret that larger brands have the advantage of scale, brand recognition, and advanced technology stacks. But small hotel management software levels the playing field. Independent properties can now compete by offering:

A direct booking website with real-time rates and availability

Personalized stay packages and promotions

Loyalty incentives for returning guests

Flexible check-in/check-out options using mobile apps

Tailored communications that reflect their brand personality

With automation handling repetitive tasks, hoteliers have more freedom to surprise and delight guests—something big brands struggle to replicate at scale.

Conclusion

In an industry where guest experience, speed, and efficiency matter more than ever, small hotels can’t afford to operate without modern tools. A reliable small hotel management software system gives you everything you need to manage reservations, streamline operations, and deliver the kind of personalized service that wins repeat business.

Investing in software isn’t just about saving time—it’s about unlocking your property’s full potential.

Hotel Consultancy Services to Improve Efficiency and Revenue

Introduction

Hotel consulting services are critical in assisting hotel owners and management to attain these objectives. With experienced insights and specialized tactics, hotel consultants identify areas for development and offer solutions to improve guest happiness, optimize operations, and boost profitability. Whether you own a small boutique hotel or a huge chain, competent consulting may transform your business.

Understanding Hotel Consultancy Services.

Hotel consultancy services cover a wide range of specialised solutions targeted at enhancing various elements of hotel administration. These services often involve operational audits, market analysis, revenue management, employee training, and improved customer experience. Consultants can identify inefficiencies and make practical recommendations after performing a full evaluation. This method not only enhances day-to-day operations, but it also guarantees long-term growth and sustainability.

Enhancing operational efficiency.

One of the key advantages of hotel consulting services is increased operational efficiency. Consultants evaluate crucial areas such as front-desk operations, housekeeping, inventory management, and technology integration. Hotels may save money, decrease waste, and improve service quality by applying industry best practices and improving operations. Efficient operations result in speedier service delivery, improved resource allocation, and more visitor satisfaction.

Increasing Revenue Through Strategic Planning

Increasing income demands more than simply filling rooms. Hotel consultants employ sophisticated revenue management approaches to optimize pricing strategies, manage room inventory, and discover new revenue streams. Consulting services assist hotels in capitalising on peak demand, implementing dynamic pricing, and designing appealing packages for various consumer categories through data-driven decision-making and market research. These tactics not only boost occupancy rates, but they also optimize revenue per available room (RevPar).

Improving the guest experience and brand reputation.

A great guest experience is essential for developing a strong brand and promoting repeat business. Hotel consultation services are focused on improving every touchpoint in the guest journey, from booking to check-out. This could include improving customer service practices, increasing amenities, and using guest input to make constant changes. Satisfied guests are more likely to offer favorable feedback, promote the hotel to others, and become repeat clients.

Conclusion

In today's competitive hospitality industry, hotel consultant services offer the experience and strategic assistance required to increase efficiency and revenue growth. By tackling operational difficulties, refining revenue strategies, and improving guest experiences, these services enable hotels to stay ahead of the pack. Investing in professional advice is more than just managing current problems; it is also about ensuring your hotel's long-term viability and profitability.

Maximizing Profitability: The Essential Guide to Hotel Budgeting Software

In the hospitality business, effective financial management is crucial for maximizing profitability and ensuring sustainable operations. With the complexities of daily expenses, fluctuating occupancy rates, and diverse revenue streams, hotel managers need robust tools to streamline budgeting processes. Enter hotel budgeting software—a vital resource for modern hospitality management.

Why Hotel Budgeting Software is a Game Changer

1. Precision and Accuracy: Errors in budgeting can lead to significant financial consequences. Hotel budgeting software minimizes manual data entry errors and miscalculations, providing accurate forecasts that hotel managers can rely on. Automated calculations and real-time updates ensure that your financial reports are always current and precise.

2. Simplified Forecasting: Forecasting is essential in the hospitality industry due to seasonality and market fluctuations. Hotel budgeting software allows you to create detailed forecasts based on historical data, industry trends, and market analysis. This flexibility helps in planning for peak seasons and slow periods, ultimately optimizing revenue.

3. Customization Tailored to Your Needs: Every hotel has its unique operational structure. Hotel budgeting software often offers customizable templates to accommodate specific financial planning needs. Whether you're managing a large resort or a small boutique hotel, you can tailor your budget according to your operational goals.

Key Features to Look For

When considering hotel budgeting software, keep an eye out for the following features:

1. Real-Time Data Visualization: Dashboards that provide real-time analytics empower managers with the information they need at their fingertips. Look for features that visualize KPIs such as revenue per available room (RevPAR), average daily rate (ADR), and occupancy trends.

2. Scenario Analysis: The ability to create multiple scenarios can greatly enhance your strategic forecasting. For instance, you might want to simulate how changes in pricing or occupancy will affect overall revenue. This feature allows hotels to plan for the unexpected and make informed decisions.

3. Comprehensive Reporting Tools: Effective financial management relies heavily on data analysis. Choose software that offers robust reporting capabilities, helping generate detailed financial reports, cash flow analyses, and departmental budget breakdowns easily.

4. User-Friendly Interface: Complexity can hinder usability. It's crucial to select budgeting software with an intuitive user interface that allows team members of all skill levels to navigate it without extensive training.

5. Integration Capabilities: To gain a holistic view of hotel performance, seek software that integrates seamlessly with existing property management systems, accounting software, and revenue management tools. This ensures that financial data flows through your operations without friction.

Steps to Implement Hotel Budgeting Software Successfully

1. Assess Your Current Processes: Before implementing any software, evaluate your current budgeting and financial management processes. Identify bottlenecks, challenges, and areas where improvement is needed.

2. Define Your Budgetary Goals: Clearly define your budgeting objectives. Are you looking to minimize costs, allocate resources more effectively, or enhance revenue forecasting? Knowing your goals will help you choose the right software.

3. Involve Key Stakeholders: Involving your finance team, department heads, and other stakeholders in the software selection process will ensure that the chosen solution meets the needs of all users.

4. Training and Support: Once you've selected your hotel budgeting software, ensure that staff receives adequate training. Utilize the vendor’s support and training resources to maximize the software's potential.

5. Regular Review and Update: Budgeting is an ongoing process. Regularly review your budget, analyze performance against forecasts, and update your plans as needed to respond to changing market conditions.

Conclusion

In a world where the hospitality industry faces intense competition and economic shifts, having an efficient budgeting process is crucial. Hotel budgeting software provides the tools necessary for hotel managers to achieve greater financial clarity and operational efficiency. By investing in the right software, hotels can better navigate their financial landscapes, adapt to changes, and ultimately enhance their profitability.

Whether you're a seasoned manager or new to the industry, exploring hotel budgeting software could be the key to unlocking your property’s financial potential. Embrace technology to stay ahead in this dynamic environment and watch your hotel flourish!

Is My Hotel Room Pricing Logical ?

For Some People, Setting Prices is Straightforward, While for others, It's More Challenging. But let's Put Aside Whether it's Easy or Complicated and Focus on the Core Question: Is the Price I'm Setting for my Hotel Rooms Logical?

Consider These Scenarios to Explore This Question:

You have a 50-room hotel with one room type. A group books 25 rooms, bringing your occupancy to 50%. Should you increase or hold retail pricing on OTAs and your brand's website? What factors influence this decision?

If your Corporate Individual – Negotiated Segment bookings are strong, should you increase or hold retail pricing? Why?

If you have only 5 rooms left to sell for today, should you raise prices or keep them steady?There may be many situations, where you might be inclined towards increasing the price points, when your property occupancy increases or Vice versa.

While it might seem intuitive to raise prices as occupancy increases, is occupancy the only factor to consider when setting prices?

Ultimately, the customer decides whether to book your room at the given price. You can set whatever price you like, but it's the buyer's decision to accept or reject it. To ensure you're competitive and growing revenue and profitability, you need to find the right price point.

How Do You Determine The Right Price?

The answer lies in understanding the Behaviour of your property. Just as people can be polite or rude, hardworking or lazy, hotels have characteristics that inform pricing decisions. To understand your hotel's Behaviour, consider these key aspects:

🟢Lead Times: Do bookings happen well in advance or closer to the arrival date? For example, weddings are typically booked well ahead of time, while business Travellers might book closer to their stay.

🟢Day of the Week Patterns: Leisure Travellers might prefer weekends, while corporate clients usually book weekdays.

🟢Length of Stay (LOS): What's the typical length of stay for different market segments?

🟢Price Elasticity: How does demand change with price fluctuations on different days of the week and during different seasons?

🟢Demand and Supply Balance: How does seasonality affect demand and supply across different market segments?

🟢Past and Current Trends: Are there noticeable changes in booking patterns?

🟢Socio-Economic Factors: What broader factors could impact customer Behaviour?

These insights help you forecast more accurately and make better pricing decisions.

It's important to remember that simply raising prices doesn't guarantee increased revenue. You need to consider the market segment mix, channel mix, and strategies to extend length of stay to grow occupancy during quieter times. Accurate forecasting enables you to make well-informed decisions about pricing, yield management, and channel management.

Expanding your distribution through a channel manager with a wide reach can also help increase demand, boosting your property's revenue.

RedSKY Hospitality provides services and expertise to help revenue managers optimize market segments and channel mix to maximize revenue and profitability. Using advanced technology, they can forecast and make informed pricing decisions.

Precium Technologies offers tools to aid accurate forecasting and competitor rate shopping to keep you up-to-date with market trends. Their AI-based pricing recommendation tool helps suggest the optimal price to maximize RevPAR and profitability.

By understanding your property's Behaviour and using advanced tools, you can set prices that attract customers while maximizing revenue and profitability.
