HOSPITALITY IN THE HOT SEAT

In recent years, the hospitality industry has seen significant changes. Travel habits have not simply changed. They are constantly evolving. With the introduction of numerous online booking channels, prospective guests have more power over how much they pay for accommodation. With this shift in the booking journey dynamic, it begs the question – how can hoteliers maintain ownership of their revenue streams?

While new online channels may pose a threat, technology hasn’t left hoteliers high and dry.

New digital channels broaden hoteliers’ opportunities for distribution channels. There are multiple tech solutions to choose from that can help improve your hotel operations. Our personal favourite has to be an all-in-one hotel management system. Admittedly, we may be a little biased. But as they say, numbers don’t lie, so we’ll provide the facts and leave the judgment up to you.

How It Started?

Nadja Buckenberger faced many challenges when she first opened the doors of the Bliss Boutique Hotel in Breda in 2014. She quickly realised that the traditional method of running a smaller hotel – mostly with handwritten reservations and spreadsheets - was not ideal. The process was not only labour-intensive but left opportunity for human error to creep in.

She couldn’t find a single affordable solution that could manage all aspects of her property. That’s when she decided to join forces with her partner, tech entrepreneur Tymen van Dyl to create one that could.

The software worked wonders for the Bliss Hotel and soon piqued the interest of other hotels in the region. Soon it was clear that there was a great demand for this all-in-one solution! They officially launched RoomRaccoon in January 2017, and six months later, they had over 100 hotels on board.

2016

In 2016, Nadja and Tymen began building software that would solve Nadja’s three central pain points by combining a Property Management System (PMS) with a channel manager and booking engine – a technological feat!

2017

How It’s Going

Today, RoomRaccoon is the hotel management system of choice for independent hotels and accommodation businesses. We serve thousands of hotels globally in over 50 countries with our technology.

Every day the 100+ ‘Raccoon’ team works hard to empower hoteliers with technology that drives better-performing hotels and guest experiences. We have headquarters in two vibrant cities on opposite sides of the world, Breda in the Netherlands and Cape Town in South Africa. Plus offices in Valencia, Spain and Lisbon, Portugal.
