Hostel Office



You do not have to manually allocate beds and rooms to new bookings as all bookings fall in to their rooms automatically with multiple updates within one minute and NOT one per hour or longer. This reduces your risk of overbookings and ensures your prices changes are updated real time. Any booking from an agent automatically reduces allocation on all agent sites. Just as prices can be changed according to the season so can agent allocations within seconds so you are not wasting agent commission payments in peak periods when bookings can easily be obtained from your website.

Group Bookings:

We have a function where you allocate beds to your central Group Booking office. You can set minimum days, % of beds per day or specific beds per day. This works really well for groups of hostels.

Booking Engine:

Our booking engine for your website is tailorable by you so you can change the text and include photos. One room can be sold under multiple categories and one booking removes all the tied categories. This enables you to gain more revenue per room. Our 1 euro fee is the lowest on the market enabling you to recieve more bookings as guests do not have to pay the higher 10% deposit. This reduces your exposure for being liable to pay tax on the commission taken by the agent. You choose the language of your booking engine.

 

Tours and Services:

These can be listed on your booking engine so as to encourage guests to complete their bookings. You can choose to request payment at the time of booking or simply for the guest to indicate they are interested. Eg. Breakfast can be booked at the time of booking a bed.



Remote Access:

Managers can download the software on to as many of their computers as they like so they can access the front office from their laptop anywhere in the world. Mac, Windows, Linux or any combination.

 

Multiple Hostels:

Many options for coordination and integration for optimisation and retention of guests within your network of hostels. A further agent function enables you to turn your local Tourism Office, Bus Station or partner hostel etc in to an agent for your hostel where they can book guests in to your hostel and receive recognition for the cooperation.

 

Reports:

We have extensive report structures but we will meet your specific requirements as we understand that all hostels have their specific likes needs and compulsory requirements. Our reports are not only for the past and present but also for the future that includes Occupancy, Nationalities, Revenue etc.

Electronic Key Integration

Our software can integrate with your Smart Card, Magnetic or RFID card system for your door locks so that when a guest is checked in the card cutting machine is automatically initiated. The benefit of this is that each card is related to a guest so that when you do lock audits you can see a guest name and not just a number. If you look at our Hostel Tips Page you will see that we have a recommendation for a supplier of an RFID system for lockers and door locks.

 

Cash Register Integration

We can integrate with your cash register so that each payment has one transaction number connecting the payment allocated to a guest and a payment in your cash register. This type of accounting is already mandatory in some EU countries.

The Bottom Line:
