Norway: Scandinavian serviced apartment operator Frogner House has increased its online sales by more than 240 per cent.
The Oslo-based provider has been using eRevMax’s RTConnect to update rate and allotments across online sales channels for its 440 apartments in Norway since 2014.
eRevMax says RTConnect allows Frogner House to update live rates and inventory to multiple booking channels directly from their PMS, and get reservations delivered back into the system in real time.
“Over the last 2 years from 2014-2016, we have seen our online sales grow 240 per cent with a 305 per cent increase in room nights via online sales. This has resulted in revenue growth of 30 per cent and our RevPAR has increased by 12.3 per cent. We have experienced an overall growth in business with occupancies going up by 15 per cent leading to an average occupancy of over 81 per cent throughout the year,” said Lene Thorsen, booking and revenue manager at Frogner House.
“The LIVE OS dashboard that we have been provided is pretty cool – there are in-built tiles that provide quick summary of reservation, budget, booking pace etc including a shopper tile which shows us how we match against competitors. I can easily say that we have not yet been able to utilise the full potential of these tools, which brings me to recommend the excellent support that eRevMax offers,” she added.</p
