How eviivo Suite™ has helped put the best of Roman hospitality on the map

In the heart of Rome’s lively Trastevere district, this boutique bed & breakfast offers five elegantly designed rooms. Surrounded by bustling bars and traditional restaurants, it provides guests with an authentic Roman experience.  

The B&B is run by Daniele, who manages the day-to-day operations and ensures the accommodation exudes comfort, style, and convenience. Daniele’s personal touch is reflected in every guest’s stay, as he focuses on showcasing the best of Roman hospitality. 

Before using eviivo, Daniele faced challenges managing bookings without a channel manager. Handling reservations from platforms like Expedia and Booking.com manually was time-consuming and prone to errors. His B&B also lacked a strong digital presence, including an underperforming website and no social media reach. As a result, he struggled to attract direct bookings, especially during the low season, and spent too much time managing availability and pricing manually. 

Daniele has transformed his B&B’s online presence with eviivo Suite’s built-in Website Manager and Channel Manager features. After enhancing his website’s SEO with targeted keywords, he added eviivo’s booking engine to drive direct reservations.  

Partnering with OTAs like Booking.com, Expedia, and Agoda has enabled Daniele to diversify booking channels and reduce his dependency on any one platform. With eviivo’s seamless OTA integrations, managing rates and availability across all platforms is effortless. 

Using eviivo Suite’s smart automation features has reduced Daniele’s manual management workload by over 75%, allowing him to focus on his guests and refining the B&B’s operations.   Direct bookings have increased by 8% during the low season, emphasising the power of digital marketing and a user-friendly booking system. Daniele has also been able to diversify his distribution channels and demand sources.   

Looking ahead, Daniele plans to continue investing in his digital strategy to ensure his B&B remains a top choice for travellers visiting Trastevere. Since enhancing his online presence and automating his channel management with eviivo, Daniele is well-positioned to sustain his seasonal success and further grow his direct bookings.
