Hotel reservation software enables hotels and other lodgings to manage room availability and bookings. It is a powerful package containing an inventory, room rates, guest information and payment facilities. A reservation system handles large amounts of data, which must be continually updated across all channels. As soon as a guest makes, modifies or cancels a booking, the system must immediately reflect those changes to prevent duplicate bookings and incorrect inventory. Guest preferences are also held within the system, together with room rates and payment information.
Travel agents, Online Travel Agents (OTAs) and other booking platforms can access this live data directly using Hotel API technology.
Real-Time Availability & Pricing
Room availability is updated as soon as the inventory changes. Bookings, cancellations and room rates are all reflected dynamically. This prevents overbooking and out-of-date room rates.
Seamless Connectivity
An API connects directly with multiple channels, removing the need to switch between different platforms.
Market Reach
Using API technology, a travel agent can access global hotel data and online booking engines through a single connection.
Customer Experience
Customers see accurate real-time information and benefit from up-to-date prices and a smooth booking process.
Scalability and Flexibility
With API connectivity, a travel agent can easily add more distribution channels or focus of a particular niche. This supports customized booking experience for clients and builds the company’s brand image.
Revenue Optimization
Prices can be adjusted depending on the business model and focus of the travel company. Demand and seasonal variations can be optimized.
