Hotel revenue management outsourcing means an external team takes over the revenue manager role: daily rate and inventory decisions, restrictions, forecasting, distribution and reporting. You keep control of the hotel and see every decision; the work, the tools and the expertise are provided for a monthly fee instead of a salary.
Demand drivers in Porto: Festa de São João; Douro Valley wine tourism; Primavera Sound Porto; Growing low-cost flight connectivity. Typical guests: European city-breakers on 3 to 4 night stays in the Ribeira, Cedofeita and Bonfim.
