# Rate Recommendation

A day-by-day calendar of recommended rates against your current ones, with a direct link into the Yielding Board.

The **Rate Recommendation** widget is the widget you act on. Every other widget tells you where you are. This one tells you what to do next.

For each stay date it shows the rate Revhero recommends, and the rate you publish today. A **stay date** is a night a guest stays, not the date the booking was made.

The subtitle names the combination on screen: room type, view, board and occupancy. For example: *"The Basic - Street view, Room only, 2A"*. Revhero produces 1 recommendation per combination. The widget follows the base room you set in [Base room & base board](/revhero-docs/your-hotels-setup/settings/base-room-and-board.md).

*Each stay date carries its own direction: raise, drop or hold.*

## What you see

**Collapsed**, you see 3 day-cards. Each card shows the stay date, the **recommended rate in purple**, and the **current rate in black** below it.

**Expanded** with the ⤢ icon, you see a full Sun–Sat calendar for 1 month. Move between months with the **`< July 2026 >`** navigator at the top left. The **● Recommended Rate / ● Current Rate** legend sits at the top right.

| Cell element                     | What it is                                                                          |
| -------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Day number (for example `1 Jul`) | The stay date                                                                       |
| Large purple price               | The **Recommended Rate**                                                            |
| Smaller black price              | Your **Current Rate**, as your channel manager holds it                             |
| Figure with an arrow             | The difference: `↑39€` to raise (green), `↓127€` to drop (red), `0€` to hold (grey) |

### What the tile colour means

| Tint        | What it means                                                              |
| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Light green | The recommendation is above your current rate. Raise                       |
| Light red   | The recommendation is below your current rate. Drop                        |
| Light blue  | The recommendation equals your current rate. Hold                          |
| Grey        | A past date, or a day from the next or previous month shown for continuity |

A recommendation takes account of forecast demand, your competitor set, your booking pace, seasonality and events. See [Rate Recommendations](/revhero-docs/automation/rate-recommendations.md) for the detail.

## How to use it

### 1. Read the colours

* **Mostly green** — demand is growing and your rate is too low. Act on it now.
* **Mostly red** — demand is softening. Check [Pickup](/revhero-docs/your-hotels-performance/dashboard/pickup.md) and [Booking Pace](/revhero-docs/your-hotels-performance/dashboard/booking-pace.md) before you drop your rate.
* **Blue tiles and `0€` figures** — hold. Your rate is already correct.

### 2. Act

Click **Yield Rates** beside the subtitle. You arrive on the [Yielding Board](/revhero-docs/setting-your-rates/yielding-board/calendar-view.md) Calendar View. It is already filtered to this room, board and occupancy combination. You can send 1 date, or several dates in a row. To accept a whole block at once, see [Accepting in bulk](/revhero-docs/automation/rate-recommendations/accepting-in-bulk.md).

### 3. Move between months

Use the `<` and `>` arrows. Days from the next or previous month are grey. They are shown for continuity only. Move to that month to work on them.

| A blue tile with a `0€` figure               | The recommendation equals your current rate. This is a hold, not an error | Nothing to do                                                                                                                          |

## Common questions

**Why are past dates grey?** You cannot yield them. They stay on the calendar so the month reads normally.

**How is the rate decided?** It follows what your demand and your market show. [Rate Recommendations](/revhero-docs/automation/rate-recommendations.md) explains what it takes into account.

**Can I change which room and board is shown?** Yes. It follows your base room, which you set in [Base room & base board](/revhero-docs/your-hotels-setup/settings/base-room-and-board.md).
