Specialised Internet Distribution Systems (IDS) offer an opportunity to design a sound methodological framework to monitor, collect and process data on hotel prices. IDS publish real-time prices enabling automatized information gathering. Thus, representative market snapshots can be taken in a reliable, robust and cost-efficient way. A modelling hotel dynamic pricing system based on data collected from IDS is developed. It provides information about current and future hotel prices. As an application example, an isotonic model is used to show the day of the booking plays a significant role in price and availability when booking a hotel room within 15 days in advance.
