Case Study: Katalyma Hotels boosts revenue and saves time with Lighthouse

Katalyma Hotels - Customer Case Study

Katalyma Hotels, an independent hotel operator in New Zealand, was spending hours each day on revenue management across its boutique properties, Whangaparaoa Lodge and Kerikeri Park Lodge. Owner Troy Clarry needed a faster, more accurate way to track competitor pricing, market trends, and demand without relying on fragmented systems and manual analysis. Lighthouse’s Pricing Optimization helped address this challenge.

With Lighthouse, Katalyma Hotels centralized revenue data in one dashboard, enabled real-time rate updates through PMS integration, and set up automated dynamic pricing rules across room types. The result was a reduction in daily revenue management work from over two hours to about one hour, plus a 16–17% increase in average rates in November year over year, despite a slight two-point occupancy drop. Lighthouse also helped Troy plan further ahead with forecasting and targeted promotions.
