What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 FDD, Atwell Suites hotels must use a Revenue Management System, which can be either IHG Concerto™, Yielding & Price Optimization or Revenue Analytics' N2Pricing. However, beginning in 2026, only Revenue Analytics' N2Pricing will be available as an IHG-approved Revenue Management System. These systems are designed to analyze hotel historical data, future bookings, and other leading indicators to create a detailed forecast of future business for the hotel over the next 50-52 weeks.
The primary purpose of these Revenue Management Systems, including Revenue Analytics' N2Pricing, is to assist hotels in determining the best daily prices and inventory controls. The system integrates demand forecasts, publicly available competitive rates, and price sensitivity to provide optimal recommendations for the Atwell Suites hotels. This should allow franchisees to maximize revenue by adjusting pricing based on predicted demand and competitor pricing.
These systems are integrated into the sales process from GRS (likely meaning Group Reservations System) or PMS (Property Management System) and all direct (CRO, Brand Website) and indirect channels (such as GDS or online travel agencies (OTA)). Costs of between $30 and $120 per month may apply for competitive rate insight shopping. For Hotels currently subscribed to RevenueStrategy360 these costs may be waived. This integration ensures that the pricing strategies are consistently applied across all booking platforms, potentially increasing efficiency and revenue for the franchisee. The cost for these systems can vary, and it is important for franchisees to understand these potential monthly costs.
