what is room mapping ?

Optimize booking profitability and operational efficiency with real-time AI insights. Continuously assess live market trends, competitor strategies, and pricing opportunities to adapt dynamically and drive revenue growth. Apply, pre, during & post, booking profit intelligence optimization.

Hotel room mapping is the process of standardizing and organizing different room types across buyers & sellers (channels, suppliers, OTA, GDS, direct booking, distribution platforms), to ensure consistency. Each hotel often has its own naming conventions and categories for room types (e.g., "Deluxe queen, "Ocean view suite ada"), and different booking platforms might label similar rooms differently (e.g., "dlx qn, "Ocean suite accessible").

The goal of room type mapping is to match these varying names and discrepancies to a standard list, making it easier for platform users, guests, hoteliers, and booking systems to understand what each room offers.

Room mapping is essential for streamlining qualified content, optimizing profitability, and improving the customer experience.

Dataset

On the fly

Data mapping is done with your data exactly 'as-is' whether it's your own or from suppliers.
There are no limits on sources, hotels, or rooms.
No data collection or caching is involved; simply send room data to the API at any time or upload an inventory.

Customize grouping criteria and depth based on your application needs. You can add or remove categories, such as type, bed configurations, occupancy, amenities, and more.
Whether you need a few requests or billions daily, we’ve got you covered.

Sentiment

In order to detect exclusions inside a name, a sentimental parity check is performed.
Negation is evaluated across topics & attributes. Positivity, free and neutrality are also mapped.
Detecting both enhances the relevance of in-context mapping.

"no sauna", "pool not available","lounge access not included" ,"free breakfast", "not a pkg"
The mapper returns a sentimental parameter per attribute being negative, positive, neutral.

Agnostic

Mapping a wide range of attributes enables highly precise, context-based analytics.
Hoteliers and local providers often use both their native language and English in room descriptions.

Room-matching is source and data-agnostic, working seamlessly across six languages, whether mixed or not, and returning results in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, and German.

Usage

Integrate it into your booking flow whenever and however you need:

Static cache: Map your listings, suppliers, logs, and booking history.
Hybrid deferred: Update new entries as they appear, mapping whenever needed.
Real-time call: Map each availability call to suppliers in real-time.

Deploy

Available via the API or directly within your cloud:

Fast API: Our database-free technology processes calls quickly in real-time.
High volume: We provide a custom high-frequency mapper to handle all your availability calls.

FAQ

Why choose room-matching ?

Cost is determined by volume and applies equally for all usages (static or real-time calls). Once your inventory is mounted, you only need to send updates for new items or those requiring revalidation.

Best Practice: Increase the frequency of remapping for bestsellers and trending destinations to keep a "fresh" by hotel mapped room inventory.

By adjusting your mapping approach (static vs. real-time), you can significantly reduce the volume of mapped data by as much as 100 times compared to remapping every 24 hours.

The mapping process is quick and efficient, utilizing low-cost infrastructure to deliver fast results.

Customization options include separation, grouping, range, score, rate optimization, and room description rewrites.

We use 16 topic dictionaries, organized into 4 groups based on their relevance for matching.

You can customize the grouping by adding or removing topics as needed. Group similar rooms together and adjust room descriptions to your preferred style.

Choose from pre-set options for quick setup.

Security, stability, and confidentiality are paramount.

We deploy the AI on your prefered instance.

You manage your own room-level intelligence services.

H24 support. Done in real-time. You send a request, it is processed immediately.

WHAT ARE THE SUPPORTED LANGUAGES ?

Room-matching supports 6 languages simultaneously:
EN, SP, PT, FR, IT, and DE.

Both the input room name you send and the response are processed in these languages.
You’ll receive the translated room name in all six languages.

In progress: AE, IN, CN.

WHAT IS ON-THE-FLY MAPPING ?

Room-matching processes your calls containing the rooms list. We do not connect to your suppliers.
When you send a hotel rooms list containing your suppliers API availabilities, the mapping is returned under half a second.
You can also send larger inventory lists (up to 30k per call), to quickly map entire inventories (eps room inventory takes 10 mns).

WHAT TECHNOLOGY BEHIND THE SCENE ?

NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING
NLP is splitting an unstructured text into sortable data.
Our in house technology chunks a text into sections, scans terms, sorts out attributes.
It can be an hotel, rental or room name, a more complete text description, an html page or suppliers' API fields.

LIMITED TIME OFFER

Unlimited mapping quantity. 1499 €
This unique special offer allows you to map all your suppliers, all hotels, all rooms and build you room cache inventory. For large OTA, bed-bank & platforms, should you have 50 suppliers & billions to map, no limit.

INVENTORY BUILD

Creating a cache.

Step 1: Index your database based on room code, room-matching group indexes, and mapping separation.
Step 2: Prioritize mapping for best sellers and high-demand destinations first. Then, gradually map others as needed to optimize the build flow.
Step 3: Either perform room-matching on-the-fly or process larger batch mappings at scheduled intervals (e.g., every 24 hours).

INVENTORY UPDATE

Low cost best practice.

Step 1: When receiving availability responses, compare room names "as is" by room code, between your cache and the incoming data.
Step 2: If a difference is detected or a new room code appears, map/remap only those changes to efficiently update your inventory.
Step 3: Update your inventory. Use on-the-fly or send batches to be mapped at scheduled intervals.

On average, 1% of room names are changed daily by hoteliers, meaning you only need to remap 1% of rooms per 24h .

INVENTORY VIRTUALIZATION

Without a cache.

Maintaining a room-level cache can be complex and resource-intensive. You can opt not to maintain a database cache but still benefit full mapping, high personalization & price optimization.

The cache paradox.
Sometimes, maintaining a large room inventory but only using a fraction of it makes no sense, especially for startups or low searches volume applications. You are better just mapping/remapping your avail. calls. even if you remap multiples per day.

Benefit.
The hotel's rooms range is updated & virtualized for the user in real-time, all the time. Price optimization is done on-the-fly. No cache maintenance required.
