ADVANTAGES :
1. Simplifies Front Office Tasks —
A hotel booking system can provide the 'real time' status of the
hotel rooms. Front desk staff can draw bookings directly on their
front desk console and update them with complete ease. A
booking system like Hotelogix, even has a 'Dynamic Room
Allocation Manager' which automatically allocates rooms to
guests by scanning through various parameters, such as,
cleanliness, availability, occupancy, and so on.
2. Enables distribution —
Hotel booking software enables hotels to be present in the global
marketplace in real time. Competition is extremely stiff in the
hospitality industry, and your guests have numerous hospitality
options when they are travelling — B&B's, hostels, hotels,
boutiques, Airbnb and so on. To stay ahead of the competition, you
need to ensure that your hotels are as visible as possible. The hotel
booking software enables hotels to not just maximise bookings via
the hotel's own website but also be present in various online
channels — OTA's and GDS. Also with the booking software, your
hotel can manage all the channels via one interface, therefore
maintaining their room inventory and rate parity uniformly across
all channels via one platform. This helps simplify operations for
your reservations team and also ensures that issues such as double
or overbooking are eliminated.
3. Improves guest reservations —
Many OTA's now promote their site by offering free cancellations or
changes in the booking up to a certain date. If your hotel doesn't have
its own booking system and has to deal with various vendors manually
this can create a lot of confusion in bookings and result in huge losses.
An integrated booking system allows information to be synced via all
systems, so any reservation that is cancelled or changed via the OTA
gets updated, in real time.
4. Increases multi-tasking —
With the booking system, a hotel with minimal staff can effectively
manage several tasks simultaneously. They can manage group
check ins, check out of other guests, confirm reservations, and so
on, all at the same time.
5. Centralizes hotel management —
The centralized approach of the booking system helps keep everyone
informed. Housekeeping can update rooms which are ready for check
in, the front desk can in turn inform which rooms have been checked
out, and tasks can be assigned quickly and easily. This ensures
complete transparency and reduces the chances of any crucial
information being lost due to lack of communication.
