With all this experience and support, the hotels know how to apply successful strategies to each venture –

The group of hotels presented on this site cross-promote each other and provide a consistent level of service to guests that select one or more of these hotels for their hospitality needs.

Revenue Management

Among the administrative services PCFSI provides to hotels, advanced analytics are used to predict occupancy patterns, optimize inventory, and manage pricing and distribution channels. These programs help each individual hotel to shape business plans, stimulate demand, and maximize revenues through smart pricing strategies as property occupancies fluctuate through seasonal and economic variations.

Domestic Central Reservations

The non-branded hotels on this site and many others are offered central reservation services through a business partner.  This brings great efficiencies to participating properties, allowing them to manage rates and reservations far more easily than they could on their own. With consumers able to choose from many distribution channels, the system helps to optimize direct bookings – the most profitable channel for properties today
