Red Roof and HotelIQ Launch AI-Powered Revenue Platform
RED ROOF IS WORKING with HotelIQ to deploy HotelIQ Decision Cloud, an AI-powered revenue management platform. The integration of HotelIQ’s business intelligence and price optimization system supports Red Roof’s cloud technology across its properties nationwide.
The platform helps hotel owners and operators make faster, data-driven decisions and increase revenue by providing insights into performance metrics and improving operations, the duo said in a statement.
“This solution combines predictive pricing models, an analytics platform, and system automations to help Red Roof owners maximize revenues and profitability,” said Zack Gharib, Red Roof's president. “The partnership will enable Red Roof to use the latest technologies to create pricing strategies—all accessible through an efficient platform. It’s a valuable solution for our brand and franchisees.”
Hotel owners and operators gain insights from business intelligence, analytics and algorithms for price optimization. “This integration eliminates time-consuming manual data analysis while ensuring effective collaboration within a unified digital workspace,” Gharib said.
The solution automates revenue-management decisions with AI, increasing efficiency and enabling quick, accurate pricing and inventory decisions to maximize revenue and profitability for hotel owners.
Apo Demirtas, HotelIQ’s founder and CEO, said the HotelIQ team is excited to partner with Red Roof.
“Their leadership has shown foresight in embracing advanced analytics and price optimization,” he said. “This partnership aligns perfectly, and we’re confident it will deliver long-lasting results for Red Roof.”
Red Roof’s portfolio includes Red Roof Inn, Red Roof PLUS+, HomeTowne Studios by Red Roof, The Red Collection, and dual-branded properties, with more than 60,000 rooms across more than 700 properties in the U.S. and Japan.
In March, Red Roof added more than 30 women to its ownership community through Road to Inclusivity and Diversity in Entrepreneurship, connecting aspiring owners with lenders, and SHE, which supports women in hospitality with resources and best practices.
Nightfood Holdings plans to acquire two hotels in California worth $80M.
Hotels will feature AI-powered service robots.
The strategy combines automation revenue with real estate growth.
NIGHTFOOD HOLDINGS PLANS to acquire two hotels in California to test the use of AI-driven robots in guest services. The company also announced plans for a broader tech-integrated portfolio.
The company has signed a letter of intent to acquire a 155-room Holiday Inn in Victorville, California, for approximately $27 million, with plans to convert it into a Courtyard by Marriott. A second deal is underway for a Hilton Garden Inn in Rancho Mirage, valued around $24.5 million. The two properties represent an estimated $80 million in assets.
Both Victorville and Rancho Mirage properties will serve as operational testbeds for automation and future revenue optimization. The Rancho Mirage hotel sits adjacent to Disney’s upcoming Cotino resort project.
Nightfood Holdings combines hotel ownership with Robotics-as-a-Service through its Skytech subsidiary. The company plans to deploy guest-facing robots for food delivery, laundry transport and concierge functions, along with back-end automation for cleaning and operations. Robots will be integrated into its own properties and eventually licensed to third-party hotel operators.
"We're pairing recurring RaaS income with long-term real estate value creation," the company stated. "These flagship hotels will serve as model environments for automation deployment and performance tracking."
Nightfood has also partnered with Bear Robotics to expand its automation capabilities across the portfolio.
The strategy targets cost reduction, operational efficiency and enhanced guest experience. Industry reports project 30 to 40 percent cost savings from hotel automation, with AI in hospitality expected to grow to $1.46 billion by 2029. The global hospitality robotics market is forecasted to reach $107 billion by 2034.
Recently, Vision Hospitality Group deployed its AI-driven procure-to-pay platform across more than 40 properties, aiming to automate accounts payable processes.
