iCal Channel Management to Sync with OTAs

Grow your hotel or vacation rental business with more channels yet avoid overbooking! The plugin can synchronize the availability and bookings submitted through your website with those from online travel platforms like Airbnb, Booking, TripAdvisor, HomeAway, or any other that supports iCal.

The plugin generates unique calendars to export to external online channels and provides a way to import them from OTAs. Enjoy an automatic, near real-time synchronization (sync it as frequently as every half hour).

Streamlined Guest Experience

Property Presentation: Amenities, Image Gallery, Rates

Rent out unlimited categorized properties (holiday homes, hotel rooms) or just a single accommodation (a villa, a cabin, etc.) – the plugin works for both scenarios! Each accommodation type is fully customizable: add its description, sleep, amenities, bed size, comments, price, the booking system straight on the property page, and more.

You may also display extra services and packages available for a specific accommodation type.

Mobile-friendly Property Search Form

Simplify the search for your guests through all accommodations with a dedicated search form. The arrival/departure dates are compulsory fields, but the number of adults and children are optional so feel free to adjust and customize the default form (e.g. use the uniformed “Guests” field instead).

Guests will find a property that meets their needs and place a reservation using the booking widget regardless of the device they use.

Custom Fields for Advanced Property Search

Manage multiple properties and want to give guests better sorting options to find the most appropriate offers on the spot?

Just add any number of custom search fields (filters) to the search availability form (location, accommodation types, price range, etc.) in the booking widget and make the search a lot more convenient to the guest.

Real-time Availability Calendars

Enable guests to check the availability of individual properties right on the website. The Hotel Booking plugin retrieves availability data in real-time for the common search form as well as for the individual property availability calendars.

The status colors will show available and unavailable days.

Multiple Properties Bookable at One Go

One guest can reserve multiple accommodations during one booking placement. You may also turn on the WP hotel booking plugin to recommend the best set of accommodations according to the number of guests.

This quick and smart automation will help you serve your guests faster in their dynamic journey!

Flexible Rate & Inventory Management

Dynamic Seasonal Pricing

Regulate your property rates within any custom period: low and high seasons, holiday periods, etc. Set any prices in the preferable currency depending on a season or specific days/dates. “Season” is a general term and you can label it anyhow to reflect your pricing changes, for example, increase the pricing during any busy period.

The difference in price can be applied for both long and short periods (e.g. 2 days).

Compex Rates Based on Property Facilities

Properties of the same type are equipped differently? Maintain fenced rates for the same accommodation types with different options: nonrefundable and non-cancelable reservations, advanced amenities, breakfast, private bathroom, and more.

Your guests will choose the preferable one on the checkout page.

Per-person Property Rates

The accommodation rate can be changed automatically depending on the number of guests. You simply need to add the needed number of per-guest price variables that will be different from the base accommodation price.

The price rate will change dynamically based on the search parameters of your guests. You can choose to prioritize the maximum capacity number so that the number of adults and children will become flexible for each property.

Property Rates Based on the Length of Stay

Discounts for a longer stay? No problem! Create different price points based on the length of stay – add weekly, monthly or other rates for any custom duration.

The system will automatically discount the properties according to your rate rules. The longer the stay, the better per-night rate!

Discount Coupons in WordPress Hotel Booking Plugin

Easily create percentage, per-stay, or per-day personalized discount coupons via the admin dashboard. You’ll be able to set a discount amount, an expiration date, set check-in and check-out dates, min/max days to stay and more to customize your coupons for individual accommodations.

You can also create early-bird and last-minute discounts for your rooms or vacation rentals!

Compulsory Taxes & Fees

Complete and correct tax, fee and pricing information of all accommodation charges. Add mandatory fees, accommodation taxes, service taxes and fee taxes – customize their types and charges to fit your needs.

Keep track on pricing information of all bookings in the admin dashboard and provide your guests with the pricing details.

Bookable Extras or Free Services

Offer additional guest services such as spa, airport-to-hotel delivery, a swimming pool, childcare, etc. that guests can add to their reservation on the checkout page.

Set the service price to be charged per stay, daily or let the guest choose. Per-accommodation and per-guest prices can also be configured.

Handling Bookings & Payment Gateways

Accept Payments Online or After Arrival

Confirm booking requests in the dashboard or instantly via email / upon payment. Charge a full price or deposit (fixed/percentage). Accept booking payments via built-in PayPal, 2Checkout, Braintree, Stripe, or Beanstream/Bambora gateways. Stripe additionally allows you to receive payments through Bancontact, iDEAL, Giropay, SEPA Direct Debit and SOFORT. Let guests pay after arrival or via a direct bank transfer.

Local Payment Gateways with WooCommerce

Need to integrate more region-specific payment gateways on your website? We have a dedicated WooCommerce Payment extension that allows you to do that in clicks. Extend the number of payment gateways needed to handle online reservation of accommodations, without tech experts.

Note: Hotel Booking WooCommerce Payments is a premium extension that is not included in the price of the Hotel Booking plugin.

Instant or Manual Booking Confirmation

Confirm booking requests in a preferable way – give control over booking approval to either your guest (by clicking on a confirmation link in the email), to yourself (you approve it manually via the admin panel) or a booking will be confirmed automatically upon payment.

For the payments, you can set the system to charge a full price or deposit (a fixed price or percentage).

Record Reservations Manually & Edit Original Bookings

Accepting booking by phone? Using other traditional methods? Let your staff add bookings manually via the backend dashboard to keep the processes paperless. The guest can pay later after arrival or using a direct bank transfer.

You can also edit original booking details, e.g. switch a room or change arrival/departure dates for guests.

User Dashboards

Allow customers to create personal accounts to easier view current bookings and speed up the process with all future ones.

You are free to enable automatic account creation at checkout for everyone or let guests choose whether they want to have an account on your website.

Efficient Rental Operations

The Centralized Admin Bookings Calendar

With this WordPress Rental plugin, all received booking requests and their current statuses are stored in one place, easily sorted and displayed in a color-coded calendar view.

The plugin comes with a flexible system of reservation restrictions and rules. Adjust your min/max stay requirement to reflect the type of guest you would prefer to host. Comply with the legal aspects of your country as for tenants and short-term guests.

Take Properties out of Booking

Need to take some of your properties out of booking for renovation?

This WordPress booking system allows you to block booking options for all accommodations or individual ones for a chosen period of time (set not check-in, not check-out or not stay-in rules). The changes will be displayed in the availability calendars of each property.

Branded Admin & Client Email Notifications

The website administrator and guests will receive the appropriate emails with the booking details, booking status, cancellation notifications, etc.

Edit the content of confirmation, cancellation and other email templates easily with the help of various macros that automatically get replaced with the client’s data. Choose colors, upload a logo, customize text, etc.

Visualize Your Sales

It’ll help you see how much you generate from bookings and extra services as well as how much you earn after taxes and lose on canceled bookings.
