Smart Hotel Software

How are you keeping up with the growth?
Are you seeing higher bookings and, if so, how are you handling them?
Many small and mid-sized hotels still rely heavily on manual reservation systems, or on old, outdated reservation software. And what happens? Well, you know what happens...
Mistakes are inevitable. That’s especially true now -- the job market is tight, and skilled, experienced help is both hard to find and hard to keep. So cancellations start rising, and you lose business permanently. After all, would you ever go back to a hotel that confirmed your reservation, and then turned you away at the door?

Is there an affordable Property Management system for hotels your size?
The problem you face is this: Manual systems are unreliable and labour-intensive, but most reservation software is designed – and priced! – For large hotels with hundreds of rooms. But what if you aren’t that large? And what if you still want to offer first-class service to your guests?
You know this is coming, don’t you?
There is a powerful-yet-easy-to-use Property Management System designed specifically for hotels with around 40 to 250 rooms: Smart Hotel Software. As you’d expect, it keeps perfect track of your reservations and room inventory. But it has many more features that you wouldn’t expect to find in a PM System this affordable.
