Optimising revenue for independent hotels

Latest headlines about SA's hospitality sector paint a relatively rosy view. However, many smaller independent hotels are still feeling the pinch.

Increasing room sales and optimising revenue remains a challenge for many independent hotels in southern Africa that are not affiliated with a larger group. Without access to a wider network and its resources in terms of marketing, sales and management systems, it can be incredibly difficult to grow your hotel business.

To address this challenge, Louis Group Hotels, Spas and Vineyards have launched HS&V Hospitality Management, which is a turnkey hotel-management system targeted at independent hotels that want to maintain a unique identity.

HS&V Hospitality Management offers hotels a sophisticated infrastructure and a highly experienced management team who understand how to optimise revenue while still maintaining and enhancing the unique image and positioning of each individual property.

A business solution for independent hotels

We see HS&V as a business solution for independent hotels that do not want to give up their unique identities in order to join a bigger group, but that also have a strong need for the management services that these affiliations would typically provide.

We believe that long-term profitability is the result of a balance between a unique product, memorable guest experiences and strong financial and human resources management.

HS&V Hospitality Management is designed to help independent hotels achieve this balance and reap the rewards in terms of revenue.
