• A hotel reservation system, or hotel reservation
  software, is a technology platform that allows
  hoteliers to accept direct bookings via the
  hotels website and through multiple distribution
  channels.
• Also known as a reservation system or online
  booking engine, it's a tool that permits hotel
  customers to schedule the dates of their stay,
  choose rooms at the time of reservation, and take
  payment from them.
• A hotel reservation system is a software solution
  that permits business owners to automate the
  procedure of accepting and managing bookings. A
  good hotel reservation system serves as a
  centralised platform that permits consumers to
  make reservations for rooms, amenities, and
  services. Meanwhile, an online reservation system
  also gives hoteliers a streamlined way to handle
  reservations, availability, pricing, and customer
  information.
• The hotel reservation system integrates with
  other key tools like a channel manager and a
  booking engine. This makes sure the hotels rates
  and availability are always up-to-date and that
  precious direct reservations can be accepted. It
  also means that the Travelopro can access lots of
  precious performance data to assist with decision
  making.

• How a Hotel Reservation System Works
• As an overview, hotel reservation systems
  typically work by allowing customers to book the
  dates for their stay based on the real-time
  display of your rates and inventory across all
  reservation channels and finalise their
  reservation via an online payment portal.
• The reservation management software essentially
  automates the booking procedure, syncing up with
  your hotels website and social media so that
  customers can reserve easily and conveniently
  without having to visit another site. The
  reservation system can also connect up to the
  channel manager, permitting hotels to distribute
  their availability to both online agents in real
  time.
• Below is a simple step-by-step process of how a
  hotel reservation system usually works
• A potential customer inputs a specific number of
  people and their planned check-in and check-out
  dates to the calendar of the system.
• The system confirms the reservation and
  automatically updates room inventory in the
  hotels PMS. It also generates a confirmation
  number which can be automatically sent to the
  customer via email.
• The customer reserves their desired room through
  the system by delivering their personal details
  like name, contact number, and payment details.
  They can also add special requests like a room
  with a view or a exact location, and the system
  will notify the hotel of these requests.

• What are the benefits of using a hotel
  reservation system?
• Improved efficiency- A reservation system
  increases efficiency for hotels, primarily
  because availability is updated immediately
  across all channels, involving your own system.
• Meet traveler expectations- Nowadays, travelers
  want to reserve a room without having to email
  the hotel or wait on hold. With a website
  reservation engine, customers can create an
  online hotel reservations system at any time,
  from anywhere generating reservations while you
  sleep.
• Lower prices- In contrast to reservations that
  you make directly, a hotel booking software
  system often delivers negotiated corporate rates.
  
• Reduces chances of human error- When you have
  your own system, customers are in charge of
  making their own bookings, so presumably,
  there'll be no errors in customer details and
  contact details. 
• Offer multiple booking options - On your website
  or social media channels, you can promote
  multiple room types, promotions, and packages,
  targeting a broad range of traveler budgets and
  tastes.
• Build guest relationships prior to arrival- Most
  OTAs dont share customer contact details when
  forwarding a reservation. When customers reserve
  these through your website, you collect these
  details directly.

• Why do you need a hotel reservation management
  system?
• A hotel reservation system is essential for
  todays accommodation supplies, both large and
  small.
• A growing number of travellers are relying solely
  on online reservations in order to reserve their
  accommodations, and without this capability,
  you'll lose a significant amount of business.
• Today's hotels are expected to have booking
  systems in place, because it's more convenient
  for customers as well as staff. Rather than
  having to wait for you to be at your desk,
  customers can quickly check your availability,
  reserve and confirm their stays all without
  speaking to you.

• What to look for in hotel reservation software?
• Heres a helpful list of considerations when
  selecting hotel booking software
• Ease of use- Reserving your trips should not feel
  like rocket science. A hotel booking engine can
  make your job more convenient and take away the
  struggle of searching for the perfect place to
  stay.
• Customization options- Every organization that
  sends employees on business travel has a
  compliance policy and budget to keep travel
  expenditures in check. Your reservation
  management system should permit you to integrate
  these policies and help in increasing compliance.
  
• Simple integration- One of the main features of
  every good hotel management system is its ability
  to integrate into your workflows. See which tool
  can fit into your existing setup and make your
  hotel booking procedure as smooth as possible. 
• Customer service- Booking hotels is not simply a
  case of finding a hotel and booking a room. It is
  equally important to ensure a safe and secure
  experience for your travelers.

• Advantages of Reservation System for Hotels
• A hotel reservation system software is the
  assisting hand you require to keep your occupancy
  up, even during slow times, and ensure everything
  is running smoothly.
• Theres a range of advantages to having this
  technology in place at your hotel, mostly based
  around simplifying your life as a manager or
  staff member and speeding up a number of
  procedures.
• Heres the top benefits of implementing a hotel
  reservation system.
• Offer a Faster Booking Process - With an online
  reservation system, the booking procedure becomes
  faster and more efficient. Customers can easily
  find for availability, select their desired room
  types, and complete the booking fast, resulting
  in a seamless reservation experience. 
• They Work 24/7- An online booking system works
  all the time. This gives freedom to potential
  visitors to reserve a room anytime they want. It
  also maximises your sales because you are not
  limited to your working hours. In fact, studies
  show that a 24/7 online reservation system
  greatly increases the number of hotel bookings.

• Get Smarter Insights into Your Business- Usually,
  such systems come with various analytics tools.
  They can keep track of each booking and all the
  related details. Thus, you'll have all the
  information to better understand your customers,
  their preferences and what upgrades you sell the
  most. With this, you'll be able to outline the
  areas where you need to focus on and increase
  your business.
• Payments are Easier and Faster- Payments are also
  greatly eased with an online reservation
  platform. You can require your customers to pay
  when they book, further increasing your income,
  and not worry about payments when they arrive.
  Additionally, in case of a no-show, you can keep
  some of the money as compensation.
• Reduced risk of double or over bookings- When a
  hotel booking system is not in place, one person
  has to manually update the bookings coming in
  from all the linked distribution channels. Given
  the fact that most hotels have a diverse
  distribution network with a huge range of agents,
  this can be an extremely difficult task.
• Decreased chances of losing or messing up
  reservations- With customers putting in their own
  details, theres less chance of the wrong data
  being entered. Human fallibility is a far less
  significant factor when they input the dates and
  specifications themselves.
