What IFHG - we're hiring! does

IFHG (iForHospitality Group B.V.) is a Netherlands-based hospitality commercial consultancy founded in 2013 by Albert Kreeft, headquartered in Koudekerk aan den Rijn. The firm delivers revenue management, marketing management, software advisory and implementation, temporary staffing (detachering), and strategic consultancy services to hotels, holiday parks, resorts, and serviced apartments across the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, and the ABC islands (Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao). Service offerings are packaged in three tiers for revenue management (Half Board, Full Board, All Inclusive, starting at €1,499/month) and three tiers for marketing (The Essentials, In Control, Full Story, starting at €399/month), with variable performance-based pricing available for hotel chains.

The underlying technology stack is consultancy-led rather than product-led: IFHG configures and integrates third-party hospitality software including Mews PMS (where it holds Preferred Installer status), channel managers, booking engines, and revenue management systems, layering AI-assisted forecasting tools onto existing client PMS/RMS environments via APIs. The firm's analytical edge rests on 15+ years of accumulated domain knowledge, 10+ years of proprietary performance data across 100+ hotel clients, and external signals (weather, events, flight schedules, search behavior, competitor rates). The marketing service line is delivered in partnership with Magic Marketing, while construction-related advisory is delivered with Blend Hospitality.

IFHG makes money primarily through recurring monthly retainers on the revenue management and marketing packages, supplemented by one-time and recurring fees from PMS implementation and configuration projects, hourly and contract-based revenue from staffing engagements, and project-based fees from feasibility, rebranding, and due diligence consultancy. The go-to-market is direct and consultative: prospective clients are routed through a free consultation entry point on the website, with sales cycles tailored to property size and segment. The customer base of 100+ hotels and holiday parks spans boutique, mid-market, and enterprise (including hotel chains), with no disclosed external institutional funding and a privately held, founder-led ownership structure.

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• IDeaS Revenue Solutions: SAS-owned hotel revenue management software vendor serving global chains and independent properties. Comparable to IFHG's revenue management services from a product standpoint, but at a much larger enterprise scale and via a software licensing model.

Emerging players

• Beyond Pricing: Dynamic pricing engine initially for short-term rentals and expanding into boutique hotels. Targets the same data-driven pricing and revenue management problem IFHG solves, but with a self-serve SaaS model rather than a managed-service approach.

Direct peers

• Atomize: Cloud-based RMS for hotels offering dynamic pricing, demand forecasting, and channel optimization. Atomize is a direct technology competitor to IFHG's revenue management offering, particularly for small and mid-sized European hotels.
• Lighthouse (formerly OTA Insight): Commercial intelligence platform for hotels combining rate parity, market demand, and revenue management benchmarking. Directly overlaps with IFHG's competitive pricing intelligence, market analysis, and RevPAR optimization workflows.
• Profitroom: Hospitality platform combining booking engine, channel manager, and revenue management tooling for hotels. Comparable to IFHG's software solutions and revenue management stack, particularly for European independent and boutique properties.
• Duetto: Cloud-native revenue management software (RMS) for hotels and resorts. Duetto overlaps with IFHG's revenue management value proposition as the most direct SaaS competitor, though Duetto sells software whereas IFHG delivers managed services around it.
