Purpose: The general objective of the study was to investigate the role of Artificial Intelligence in revenue management and pricing strategies in hotels. Methodology: The study adopted a desktop research methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive’s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library. Findings: The findings reveal that there exists a contextual and methodological gap relating to the role of Artificial Intelligence in revenue management and pricing strategies in hotels. Preliminary empirical review revealed that the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into revenue management and pricing strategies significantly enhanced the financial performance and operational efficiency of hotels. AI's ability to process large datasets in real-time improved demand forecasting and dynamic pricing, leading to increased revenue per available room (RevPAR) and average daily rate (ADR). Additionally, AI facilitated personalized guest experiences, boosting customer satisfaction and loyalty. Despite these benefits, the study identified challenges such as high implementation costs, data privacy concerns, and the need for robust data infrastructure. Addressing these issues through strategic planning and continuous staff training was deemed essential for maximizing AI's potential in the hotel industry. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The Diffusion of Innovations theory, Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Resource Based View (RBV) may be used to anchor future studies on the role of AI in revenue management and pricing strategies in hotels. The study concluded that integrating AI into hotel revenue management and pricing strategies significantly enhances performance, contributing to both theoretical and practical advancements. It enriched the Diffusion of Innovations Theory by demonstrating factors influencing AI adoption in hospitality. Practically, it provided actionable insights for hotel managers on leveraging AI for improved key performance indicators and balancing dynamic pricing with customer satisfaction. Policy recommendations included establishing guidelines for AI implementation, enhancing data infrastructure, fostering a culture of innovation, and addressing skills gaps through training and development programs. The study emphasized the need for robust data management systems and regulatory support to facilitate AI adoption.
