Hotel El Sella sits by the Roman bridge in Cangas de Onís, the town at the edge of the Picos de Europa in Asturias. Its season is short and intense: most of the year's revenue comes between June and October, when visitors arrive for the mountains, the lakes of Covadonga and the river Sella.
The hotel moved its pricing to Pricepoint in March 2024, on an annual plan, with prices flowing straight into Cloudbeds and on to its booking channels.
Each summer since, the hotel has earned more:
Compared with the summer of 2023, the last before Pricepoint, Hotel El Sella earned 36.2% more from June to October 2026, rising from €347,000 to €473,000. Most of that came from rate: the average rate rose 28.2%, from €91 to €117, while the hotel sold 6.3% more room nights.
For a seasonal hotel, that is what matters most. When nearly all of the year is earned in a few months, every summer night has to be sold at the price demand will support, and the engine has learned a little more about the hotel's demand with every season.
Hotel El Sella heads into its third full year on Pricepoint, with three summers of its own booking history behind the engine.
