Are your hotel rates perceived as fair?


Currently, the revenue manager is the one who is in charge in price setting in upscale hotels and he has to adapt the hotel's prices toward the markets and the clients. He has to be sure that his pricing decision is fair, for that he need to know which elements allow to define a fair price.

Related to the article, adapting fair price could helps clients to become loyal to the hotel because they will be convinced that they had great deal, in another hand the employees who sale the hotel would be much more effective salespersons and finally regulatory agencies will bring more business to the hotel.

In hospitality business pricing is something absolutely crucial and important to determine, this element will permit to increase the occupation rate and increase the hotel's profit. For these reasons the person in charge of pricing need to take into account all the criterias that will help him to take its decision.

The hoteliers will always try to keep their prices as high as possible in order in increase their profit but when the circumstances are not in their favor they will automatically reduce their prices in order to maximize their business. In that case the hoteliers are not in strong position to set the price that they would like to do. In reducing their prices they will feel that their prices are fair.
Contrarily, the customers are constantly looking for the lowest price, if they are convinced that the hoteliers are making to much profit in their price's proposition they will check to the competitor and will decide to not accept the deal.  The price that the clients are ready to pay will be a fair price for them.

To sum up, the prices will always be fair for the seller first and then for the buyer. Hotels and clients don't have the same approach about fair rate. I follow the vision that the fairness of a price is determinated by the buyer and not by the seller.
