RoomRaccoon acquires Lobbi PMS to expand Benelux market presence

The acquisition is set to grow RoomRaccoon’s client base with +300 properties across the Benelux region.

(Breda, the Netherlands) 7 October 2024 – RoomRaccoon, a leading cloud-based hotel management software for independent hotels, today announced its acquisition of Lobbi PMS, a Belgium-based software provider for small to medium-sized hotels.

This strategic partnership is set to bolster RoomRaccoon’s presence by expanding its user base in the Benelux region and further afield with an additional +300 properties. Existing Lobbi hoteliers will benefit from an expanded suite of solutions tailored to their property’s needs and an enhanced level of support to ensure their operations run smoothly at all times. 

As part of the acquisition, RoomRaccoon will welcome the Lobbi team, along with its existing headquarters in Ghent, Belgium, into its ecosystem. Lobbi’s founders, David De Windt and Philippe Mangé, along with CTO Geoffrey De Muer, will remain on board to ensure a seamless transition for their hotelier clients.

Tymen van Dyl, CEO and Founder of RoomRaccoon shares: “Lobbi PMS perfectly aligns with what we are looking for in an acquisition: outstanding customers and a dedicated team that shares our passion for hotel technology. By  joining forces, we’re positioned to be the market leader in the Benelux, offering even more value to independent hoteliers and accelerating our mission to become the world’s leading Hotel Management Software.”

Lobbi PMS’ CEO, David De Windt, commented: “Today marks an exciting new chapter for Lobbi as we officially join forces with RoomRaccoon. This partnership brings even greater value to Lobbi customers, offering access to RoomRaccoon’s all-in-one solution that enhances the guest experience, streamlines operations, and boosts profitability. The transition will be seamless, with continued support and the same high level of service. We look forward to empowering our customers with the tools to thrive in an increasingly competitive market.”

This is the second acquisition completed by the bootstrapped start-up’s internal mergers and acquisitions department, following the successful acquisition of Ireland-based PMS, iHotelligence, in December 2023.
