A five-star hotel in a medieval town

Hotel Casa del Marqués is a five-star boutique hotel in Santillana del Mar, one of Spain's best-preserved medieval towns. Its 15 rooms sell at the top of the market, and its pricing comes with specific rules: room supplements, and a romantic package the team opens and closes through the year.

Its director didn't come to Pricepoint cold. He already used it at another property, Apartamentos Costa Esmeralda, and referred the hotel himself.

Built around the hotel's rules

Pricepoint's team set up the hotel exactly as its director wanted: all 15 rooms priced together, with each room's supplement marked in Pricepoint, and the romantic offer configured so the team can switch it on and off. The director also chose to keep a maximum price, a cap that limits how high the engine can go on the busiest dates.

The trial ran through August and September 2025. At its close, Pricepoint's review found bookings growing strongly compared with the year before, and the hotel signed an annual contract.

Results: a stronger season

The hotel's first full season on Pricepoint was a strong one. From April to October 2026, room revenue was 37.5% higher than the same months of 2025, rising from €290,000 to €399,000. The hotel sold 25.6% more room nights, and its average rate still rose 9.5%, to about €191. Against the same months of 2024, revenue was 20.9% higher.

What's next

With a full season of data behind it, the hotel can revisit its maximum price, the one setting that still holds the engine back on the busiest nights.
