Hotel Bären am Bundesplatz – Success Story
With Lybra, we found a complete package (rate shopper, pricing management, data analysis, statistics, trend forecasts, etc.) that allows us to stay competitive in a demanding market like Bern
.In our daily work, many time-consuming tasks such as price monitoring or market analysis have been automated. This allows us to focus more on strategy and less on routine activities. Thanks to up-to-date market data, we can react more quickly to changes, and with the automated suggestions or Autopilot mode, we can ensure faster response and processing times.
On a strategic level, we are able to develop long-term pricing strategies and, thanks to competitor analysis, more efficiently adjust our positioning and pricing strategy. Additionally, the system identifies trends and increases in market demand, allowing us to respond promptly.
Hotel Scheck – Success Story
Scheck Hotel Club was looking for a solution to support their pricing and distribution strategies, providing a clear market overview, including competitor rates and local events. The goal was to adopt a tool that could guide decisions without enforcing automation, maintaining full control over pricing.
Since implementing Lybra Assistant, the hotel has:
– Saved operational time by managing everything in one centralized platform
– Improved overall efficiency and strategic decision-making
– Shifted to a dynamic pricing strategy, resulting in an estimated 15% increase in revenue during the first full year
Refinery Hotel Redefines Revenue Management with LodgIQ
At the heart of Midtown Manhattan, Refinery Hotel isn’t just a luxury lifestyle hotel – it’s a hub for innovation. By adopting LodgIQ revenue management system early on, the hotel didn’t just optimize pricing – it unlocked a new role for revenue leaders. For Michelle Sharma, Commercial Director at Refinery, LodgIQ became the catalyst that allowed her to move beyond revenue management, rate changes and pickup reports – and into a more strategic, cross-functional leadership role. With more time, sharper insights, and smarter recommendations, Michelle has redefined what revenue management can be.
Before adopting LodgIQ, the Refinery team relied on spreadsheets and manual workflows. Revenue managers like Michelle spent the first hours of each day pulling reports, analyzing pace and pickup line-by-line, and manually updating pricing strategies.
JustStay Hotels & Apartments: Scaling Smart with Atomize
As JustStay’s portfolio grew, so did the complexity of managing pricing across different cities and markets. What once could be handled manually by a single revenue manager quickly became unmanageable.
Adding to the challenge, their previous attempt with an AI-based RMS had failed – largely due to poor integration with an older PMS. It wasn’t until they switched to Mews that a modern revenue management system became a viable option again.
This time, they wanted a solution that could scale with their growth, integrate seamlessly with Mews, and support a lean team with real-time automation.
Enter Atomize: Scalable, Fast, and Smart

With more than 180 hotels and 500 restaurants and bars across 17 brands, Ennismore is leveraging FLYR’s platform for revenue management, sales, distribution and marketing across its global operations.
By implementing FLYR Hospitality, Ennismore can benefit from AI-powered forecasting, real-time property and corporate-level analytics, and a standardized technology stack that enhances visibility and operational efficiency.
Smart Pricing, Real Impact: Luze Castellana and BEONx
Before implementing BEONx, Luze Castellana’s revenue team faced a scattered and time-consuming process. In particular, collecting and integrating data required excessive manual work. Furthermore, juggling multiple tools made it hard to gain a unified view of performance and market behavior.
Long-term demand shifts went undetected, while strategic decisions lacked speed and consistency. Consequently, their ADR was trending down, and it became clear that something had to change.
The implementation of BEONx marked a turning point. The team was able to centralize all revenue data into one platform, streamline their workflows, and rely on tailored pricing recommendations that gave them the confidence to take bolder steps.
