Extended Stay Shop
An extended stay shop is designed to provide insights into the performance of hotels that are offering extended stay accommodations. This shop helps to study hotel trends and focuses on different metrics relevant to long-term stays, such as occupancy rates, average length of stay, and revenue per available room (rev par).
Extended Stay shops are done very differently than competitive rate surveys. We use hotel pricing intelligence for this shop to increase the ability to make informed decisions about pricing strategies and market positioning.
Our agent will call the hotel directly and ask for availability on the date that you have designated. We will tell the reservationists that we are not exactly sure how long we will need to stay and that we would like to get an idea of the possible charges for various stay lengths.
We break down the stays by 1-7 nights, 8-14 nights, 7-21 nights, and 30 plus nights. If you need to request a different length of stay, for instance, 60 or 90 days, just ask, and we can accommodate nearly anything you need. Any minimum-night stay requirements are always noted. Standard rooms are checked unless you specify otherwise. In the event that the date you choose is sold out, we will move it backward or forward by a week in search of better availability. As an added bonus for you, if we are given any special amenity information, we will pass that information along as well. i.e., all-suite hotel, kitchenettes, free breakfast, free parking, free HSIA. If we run into any issues getting the information, that will be passed along.
The scenarios we use while performing these shops can vary anywhere from our family is moving to the area, we need an extended personal stay, we will be on professional business, checking for my boss, on extended training, or we are having our house remodeled, going through a trial separation from spouse, have family coming into town, etc. Any reason works as long as it is remotely believable, and we can get the information for you.
The completed report will be emailed in an Excel spreadsheet format, and the turnaround time is usually 1–2 business days.
