Management system for hotels and B&Bs (PMS)

Rooms, portal bookings and housekeeping in one system, with the guest registration filed on time. The front desk stops copying things over.

The problem

Bookings come from Booking.com, the phone and the website, and land on a planning board that has to be updated by hand on every channel: overbooking is always one oversight away. Housekeeping is coordinated by voice, and every evening someone copies guests' documents over for the police registry.

What is included

What changes

Overbooking stops being a daily fear, nobody copies documents in the evening, and the website goes back to bringing commission-free bookings.

The nearest proof

This one does not have a public demo of its own yet, and I would rather say so. Below are the projects that demonstrate the parts it is made of: if a back office handles a diary, stock and products, the same back office can handle another diary and another stock. Look at those and judge from them.

Phases and timing

  1. Rooms, channels and rates1-2 weeks

    The room inventory, the active portals and the rate rules you actually work with.

  2. Planning and portals4-6 weeks

    The planning board, the portal connections and direct booking. Run in parallel with the current method.

  3. Check-in and housekeeping2-3 weeks

    Guest registry, housekeeping and the end-of-day reports.

In total8 to 12 weeks, depending on the connected portals and the size of the property.

Practical details

What is not included, what it connects to and the frequent questions: the part worth reading before asking for a quote, opened with one tap.

What is not included

  • Electronic locks, if they are not already there: I connect to the most common ones, I do not supply them
  • The website content and photos: the booking engine lives inside the site you have, or one we build as a separate project

What it connects to

  • Booking, Expedia and Airbnb
  • The police guest registry (ALLOGGIATI WEB)
  • Online payments and POS
  • Electronic invoicing and your accounting
  • The most common electronic locks
  • TripAdvisor and Google for reviews

Frequent questions

Does it handle the tourist tax?

Yes, with your municipality's exemptions, and at the end of the period the count for the payment is already done.

What if a portal changes something?

The connection goes through the portals' official channels, which are built to last. If one changes the rules, the connector gets updated, not your way of working.

I run a six-room B&B, is this too much?

It may be, and I will tell you so upfront: under ten rooms a channel manager and a simple planning board are often enough. The full system pays off when housekeeping, a restaurant or several people at the desk come into play.

Where do phone bookings go?

Into the planning like all the others: the front desk enters them in thirty seconds, and they close availability on the portals like any other.
