Compset

Competitive Set

Definition

A carefully selected group of 4-6 competitor hotels that guests would realistically consider as alternatives to your property. Selection criteria include similar location, star rating, room count, amenities, and target market. Your compset forms the basis for all competitive benchmarking (MPI, ARI, RGI) and rate shopping activities.
