We love measuring ourselves against others, don’t we? The IRO allows you to do just that. How are you performing compared to other similar hotels? It not only reveals your performance but also places you on a competition map.

The Online Reputation Index (IRO stands for its Spanish acronym) is an indicator that reflects your relative position compared to other similar hotels. Why is this crucial?

Because in a market where competition is intense, standing out means securing a better position in that ranking, which is essential to increase sales and recognition.
