ADR is room revenue divided by rooms sold. RevPAR is room revenue divided by rooms available, which is the same as occupancy times ADR. RevPAR is the fairest single measure, because it rewards neither empty rooms nor cheap ones. - [How to choose hotel management software in Nigeria](https://bioduxhq.com/guides/choosing-hotel-software-nigeria/): Choose hotel software by testing it against your worst day, not your best. Check that outlets can charge to the room, that corporate billing and the city ledger work, that the night audit is quick, and that the vendor can install, train and support you where you are. - [The hotel city ledger, explained](https://bioduxhq.com/guides/city-ledger-explained/): The city ledger is the list of credit accounts a hotel bills after the guest has gone, usually companies, agencies, embassies and travel agents. When a guest checks out and the bill isn’t paid on the spot, the balance moves from their folio to the payer’s city ledger account until it is settled. - [Direct bookings vs OTAs, and why your hotel needs a booking engine](https://bioduxhq.com/guides/direct-bookings-vs-otas/): Online travel agents bring guests who wouldn’t find you otherwise, but charge commission on every booking, including guests who already know you. A booking engine on your own website lets those guests book and pay directly, so you keep the commission and the relationship. Most hotels do best using both. - [Guest ID and passport records at check-in, good practice for hotels](https://bioduxhq.com/guides/guest-id-passport-records/): Hotels should check a valid photo ID for every guest at check-in, record the document details accurately, store copies securely with access limited to staff who need them, and be able to produce records of foreign guests quickly when lawfully asked. Scanning the passport’s machine-readable strip avoids typing errors. - [Hotel door locks and key cards, a buyer’s guide](https://bioduxhq.com/guides/hotel-door-lock-systems/): Hotel electronic locks open with a key card or phone credential encoded at reception. Before buying, check the card type, the encoder, how the lock software connects to your PMS, and who supports it locally. A lock that talks to the PMS issues keys at check-in, updates them on room moves and cancels them at checkout. - [The hotel night audit checklist](https://bioduxhq.com/guides/night-audit-checklist/): A night audit closes the hotel’s day. Check arrivals, departures and room status, settle open outlet bills, post the day’s room charges to every in-house guest once, balance cash against receipts, then print the night auditor’s and manager’s reports for the morning. - [Recipe costing for hotel kitchens, a practical guide](https://bioduxhq.com/guides/recipe-costing-hotel-kitchens/): To cost a recipe, list every ingredient with the quantity used per portion, multiply by its current purchase cost, and add them up. Divide the cost per portion by your target food cost percentage to get a menu price. Then keep ingredient costs current, because the recipe is only as good as its prices. - [Eight ways hotel bars and restaurants lose money, and how to stop them](https://bioduxhq.com/guides/stop-revenue-leakage-hotel-bars/): Most hotel outlet losses come from a handful of gaps: drinks poured but not rung up, voids after payment, room charges that never reach the folio, untracked complimentary drinks, and stock issued without a record. Each has a simple control, and most need a POS that talks to your PMS and stores. - [What is a hotel PMS, and does your hotel need one?](https://bioduxhq.com/guides/what-is-a-hotel-pms/): A hotel PMS (property management system) is the software your front office runs on. It holds reservations, checks guests in and out, keeps each guest’s bill, tracks which rooms are clean and ready, and closes the day with a night audit and management reports. ## Contact - Phone: +234 906 000 8692, +234 906 000 8694 - WhatsApp: https://wa.me/2349060008692 - Email: sales@valinno.com - Hours: Monday to Saturday, 8am to 6pm (WAT) - Book a demo: https://bioduxhq.com/demo/
