OpenHotel PMS Review

Flexible Booking & Rate Setting

Group booking is made seamless with OpenHotel PMS. The software has a flexible booking system that allows groups to book several rooms at once. On top of that, they can even use promo codes provided by the during the payment process.

And to make the property more competitive aside from robust group booking, OpenHotel PMS provides flexibility in defining rate rules. This feature allows hotels to set-up discount types, more promo codes, length-of-stay implementation, and surcharge and tax support.

In-Depth Reporting

Understanding the trends of the business is a key factor in becoming successful. That is one thing OpenHotel PMS understands, which is why the application has built-in reporting tools. These provide a general to comprehensive view of various metrics of the operation, accessible from one interface. These reports can also be printed and exported, for sharing with executives and staff. This way, even the staff are aware of hotel trends so they too can pitch in for improvement plans.

Secure Role-Based Accounts

OpenHotel PMS knows the value of having robust security. That is why the application has implemented a role-based security system that hoteliers can customize. This enables them to define user access to certain data and PMS functions to ensure that only those with the right set of permissions are able to view sensitive information and perform particular tasks.

Integrated Payments

Processing payments is made swifter with the cloud-based PMS. The system supports major electronic payment gateways for convenient online transactions. This processing is even user-definable—hotels can set their own deposit rules, refund rules, and more.

Channel Manager Sync

With OpenHotel PMS, hoteliers no longer need to open multiple programs or browser tabs to manage room rates and availability. The system’s ability to connect with channel managers places the utmost control of channel marketing and monitoring in the hands of property owners, managers, and their front desk staff. Through this integration, they can connect their PMS software with major OTAs such as Expedia, TripAdvisor, and Booking.com.

GDS Integration

GDS, short for Global Distribution System, is a network that relays inventory and prices for accommodations to travel agencies and websites. This enables hotels to automatically transmit information regarding their room rates and availability to sellers and to make them more attractive to potential customers. As this system automates the data exchange process, hoteliers can save time sending messages to different people and companies and use that time to entertain guests instead.
