In Mamaia Nord, just a few steps from the beach, you’ll find Hotel Dedal and Grand Hotel—two complementary properties thoughtfully designed to offer guests a unique experience.
Their story begins with a bold vision: to combine comfort, flexibility, and attention to detail in a space that would become the preferred destination for travelers in this coastal area.
For Elena B., the manager of the hotels, hospitality is not just a job, but a calling:
"It’s something that grabs you and keeps you on your toes," said the hotel manager.
With extensive experience in the hotel industry, Elena concluded that success is not achieved solely by providing quality services. It also requires empathy, attention to detail, and the ability to promptly respond to guests' needs.
This philosophy forms the foundation of the two properties. Hotel Dedal, a 3-star hotel, and Grand Hotel, a 4-star hotel, function as an integrated complex, offering guests shared access to facilities such as outdoor pools and a beautifully lit terrace, which sparkles every evening.
The differences between the two are subtle. Grand Hotel boasts its own restaurant and an elevator, while both properties share the same commitment to excellence.
"Everything was designed to work as one. Our guests don’t feel any difference in service quality, no matter where they choose to stay," explains Elena, Manager of Hotel Dedal and Grand Hotel.
The Challenges of a Seasonal Business
The first season came with many challenges. Managing a hotel business, especially in Mamaia Nord, where competition is fierce and guest expectations are high, is never simple.
"The biggest challenge was effectively managing reservations. We were determined to avoid any mistakes from the start, especially since we’re working with two different properties," says Elena.
Thus, a system was needed that could incorporate all the necessary tools for the smooth operation of the location.
Since recruitment and training team members was a continuous and demanding process, the properties needed a system that was user-friendly and easy to use. "We invest a lot of time and energy into training the team. It’s a demanding process, but it’s absolutely necessary to ensure that guests leave satisfied," adds Elena, Manager of the hotels.
In addition to this, the time wasted on repetitive administrative tasks and manual work with guest records or updating room inventory threatened to reduce the efficiency of the team.
"We couldn’t afford to waste time on tasks that could be automated. We knew our success depended on efficiency," says Elena B., Manager.
The Solution: Technology for Flawless Management
From day one of operation, Pynbooking was implemented as the hotel management solution. The choice was simple: the hotel team sought a partner that could provide a comprehensive platform that was easy to use but robust enough to support the needs of a hotel complex.
"We were impressed by how comprehensive the system is. It offers us everything we need in one place—from the Channel Manager to the Booking Engine and managing reservations directly on our website," says Elena, Manager of the hotels.
What Made the Difference?
- Process Automation: The system completely eliminated manual tasks related to guest records, processing bookings, and updating room availability.
- Impeccable Technical Support: The relationship with the dedicated account manager was essential. Having someone who responds quickly to requests and provides appropriate solutions made the team feel fully supported.
- Seamless Integration with Booking Platforms: Booking.com, Expedia, and other distribution channels are automatically synchronized, reducing the risk of overbookings or errors.
"We chose Pynbooking because it offered us more than just software—it gave us a complete solution and a reliable partner," says Elena.
Observed Benefits: More Time for Guests, Fewer Worries
The results quickly followed. Pynbooking completely transformed how the hotels were managed, allowing the team to focus on what matters most: the guests.
Some of the major benefits include:
- Error Reduction: Thanks to real-time synchronization, bookings are managed without the risk of overbookings. They now have a clear and accurate picture of available rooms, preventing any confusion.

"The biggest change was that the team now has more time for guests. Automation freed us from unnecessary tasks and allowed us to focus on what really matters," says Elena.
