About me
Matthias Leistentritt advises hotels and holiday rentals on distribution, direct bookings and pricing. Hospitality Management at Les Roches, several years at Booking.com.
I advise hotels and holiday rentals on distribution, direct bookings, pricing and digital visibility. My perspective combines hospitality education, experience at a major booking platform and consulting that reflects commercial priorities as well as what can realistically be implemented in day-to-day operations.
I studied Hospitality Management at the Les Roches International School of Hotel Management in Switzerland. This education shaped my understanding of how hospitality businesses think commercially and connect operational reality with strategic decisions.
Before founding Leistentritt, I worked for several years at Booking.com and supported hotel and property partners in Vienna and Southern Austria. As a result, I understand booking-platform processes both from the accommodation provider’s perspective and from the perspective of a major distribution channel.
This combination shapes my consulting. The focus is not on generic recommendations, but on measures that fit daily operations, make commercial sense and can actually be implemented.
Assessment
You benefit especially if ...
- You want to make solid decisions in distribution, pricing and direct booking strategy.
- You are looking for personal collaboration where recommendations take daily operations into account.
- You want one contact who can connect how booking platforms work with the operational reality of the property.
About me
What shapes the collaboration
Hospitality education
The consulting is not based only on knowledge of individual systems. It is grounded in an understanding of how hospitality businesses make decisions, structure their offers and set commercial priorities.
First-hand platform expertise
Experience at Booking.com helps assess visibility and priorities on booking platforms realistically, rather than looking at them only from the outside.
Personal and direct collaboration
The collaboration takes place without handovers between teams or changing responsibilities. Consulting, prioritisation and implementation support stay with one person.
Initial consultation
Want to improve distribution, pricing or digital visibility with more focus?
The initial consultation is the right starting point for discussing your property's current situation in a structured way and defining the next steps together.
