Why hotels outscore restaurants
Hotels have priced inventory that changes by the hour, which made revenue-management algorithms standard here decades before 'AI' was the label. That head start shows in the sector average.
Marriott's marketing pillar (86) and data pillar (85) lead its operations pillar (78) — loyalty data is the asset the whole system is built around.
For franchisees
Revenue-management AI directly affects a franchised hotel owner's rate strategy. Ask how much control the individual property retains before assuming the system optimises for your property rather than the network.
