How data-driven decisions became a daily routine

“Your competitor is already using AI today.”

Every morning, the leadership of Hotel Divinus in Debrecen logs into Peaqplus — one shared, data-driven decision surface where everyone works from the same numbers. Instinct stayed. Real-time data joined it.

There is one sentence József Márics, director of Hotel Divinus, likes to say to other hoteliers: “Artificial intelligence isn’t the future. Your competitor is already using it today. The only question is when you start.”

More than four decades of leadership sit behind that line — which is exactly why it isn’t said out of tech enthusiasm. “Instinct is still an important leadership tool, but on its own it’s no longer enough,” he says. “Today’s market moves so fast that good decisions need real-time data.”

01
The problem

Everyone was chasing their own numbers

The managers had always worked with reports. But the numbers arrived from several sources, and each set had to be gathered and then interpreted separately. Every day, valuable minutes went into hunting figures down.

The bigger risk wasn’t the time. When everyone assembles the data on their own, the morning meeting stops being about the decision — and turns into a debate over whose number to trust.

If everyone analyzes the data separately, it’s easy to end up with different conclusions.

02
The decision

One surface, one set of numbers

So the leadership made a call: at Hotel Divinus, every manager logs into Peaqplus at least once a day. Not as a checkpoint — as a shared decision-support surface, so everyone works from the same base of information.

Each morning opens with a short leadership briefing on the previous day’s results, and Peaqplus’s clear, visual reports became a natural part of that ritual — because information is most useful when every decision-maker gets it at the same time.

We’re not just department heads — we’re the leaders of Hotel Divinus. That takes a comprehensive “helicopter view” that shows where we stand and which direction to take.

A revenue manager’s morning

Ten minutes, and the day has a direction

For Rita Toronyi, revenue manager, the day starts in Peaqplus. Forecast first, then 1- and 7-day pickup, then the channel mix — direct, OTA, corporate. The whole review takes five to ten minutes.

05
Search signals

The booking engine’s search history shows demand before it turns into bookings.

Rate-shopping used to be my least favorite task — I had to collect and compare competitor prices across several sites. Peaqplus’s price matrix changed that completely: a few clicks and I get a transparent view of the market.

Beyond the numbers

The result isn’t a single percentage

The tangible change, the director says, isn’t necessarily a number on a dashboard.

01
Calmer, surer decisions

We decide far more calmly and confidently. We don’t work on feelings — we see exactly what’s happening in the market.

02
Manual work, lifted

The system takes a lot of manual work off the team, so more time is left for the real strategic questions.

03
Managers arrive with proposals

Leaders now often come to the morning meeting with their own suggestions — the business logic behind a decision is visible to everyone.

We didn’t simply get a new report. We got a shared, data-driven way of leading.

Not a vendor
We see Peaqplus as a partner we grow with — not a supplier. The best technology doesn’t come from closed development, but from a constant dialogue between the people who build it and the people who use it.
József Márics · Managing Director · Hotel Divinus

The Divinus team’s day-to-day feedback genuinely shapes the product — observations go in, and practical experience quickly turns into new features.
