EXTRA SERVICES
Offering additional services brings great value to hotels, benefiting both guests and the property, while generating additional revenue and strengthening its reputation:
INCREASEDREVENUE
Additional services such as breakfast, bicycle rentals, guided tours or exclusive gifts create new sources of revenue. These extras increase the average booking value and, in many cases, have a higher profit margin than room rates, making them a key source of revenue.
ENHANCING THE GUEST EXPERIENCE
Extra services allow the hotel to offer a more complete and personalized experience. For example:
Breakfasts: offering a quality breakfast, even in collaboration with local coffee shops, allows guests to start the day comfortably without having to look outside for options.
Restaurant recommendations: for hotels that do not offer lunch or dinner, recommending high quality local restaurants enriches the guest experience and shows attentive service to their needs.
Rentals and tours: by offering bike or car rentals and arranging local tours, guests can explore the area more easily, adding value to their stay.
Exclusive gifts: selling local products or items exclusive to the hotel allows guests to take away a tangible souvenir of their stay, strengthening their bond with the establishment.
LOYALTY AND POSITIVE FEEDBACK
An experience enriched with additional services generates greater guest satisfaction, increasing the likelihood of receiving positive reviews and building loyalty for future stays. Offering personalized recommendations or exclusive experiences generates a sense of care and attention in guests, strengthening their loyalty.
In a competitive environment, the ability to offer additional services can differentiate the hotel from the competition. Unique propositions, such as exclusive gifts or partnerships with local attractions, can influence guest choice, especially among those seeking a memorable experience.
LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS AND PROMOTION OF THE TERRITORY
Collaborating with local restaurants, artisans and other local activities to offer additional services creates beneficial synergies. These partnerships not only enhance the offerings for guests, but also promote the local environment, strengthening the hotel's image as a committed community player.
OPTIMIZING OCCUPANCY AND STAY DURATION
Offering additional services can encourage guests to extend their stay. Providing entertainment or relaxation options, such as spa access or tours, can make guests opt to stay longer, increasing hotel occupancy, especially in low seasons.
