(Breda, Netherlands) October 7, 2024 – RoomRaccoon, the leading cloud-based hotel management software for independent hotels, today announces the acquisition of Lobbi PMS, a Belgium-based software provider for small to medium-sized hotels.
This strategic partnership will strengthen RoomRaccoon’s presence by expanding its user base in the Benelux and beyond with more than 300 accommodations. Existing Lobbi hoteliers will benefit from a comprehensive range of solutions tailored to the needs of their property and an enhanced level of support to ensure their operations run smoothly at all times.
Lobbi’s team and existing headquarters in Ghent, Belgium, will be included in the RoomRaccoon ecosystem as part of the acquisition. Lobbi’s founders, David De Windt and Philippe Mangé, will remain on board together with CTO Geoffrey De Muer to ensure a seamless transition for their customers.
Tymen van Dyl, CEO and founder of RoomRaccoon says: “Lobbi PMS fits perfectly with what we are looking for in an acquisition: great customers and a dedicated team that shares our passion for hotel technology. By joining forces we are able to become the market leader in the Benelux, offer independent hoteliers even more and come one step closer to our mission to become the world’s leading Hotel Management Software.”
The CEO of Lobbi PMS, David De Windt, says: “Today begins an exciting new chapter for Lobbi as we officially join forces with RoomRaccoon. This partnership provides Lobbi customers with even more value by providing them access to RoomRaccoon’s all-in-one solution that enhances the guest experience, streamlines operations and increases profitability. The transition will be seamless, with continuous support and an equally high level of service. We look forward to providing our customers with the tools to succeed in an increasingly competitive marketplace.”
This is the second acquisition completed by the bootstrapped startup’s in-house M&A department, following the successful acquisition of Ireland-based PMS, iHotelligence, in December 2023.
