Inside the module

Every channel, every rate, always in sync.

A channel manager that does the boring work, pushing rates, pulling reservations, holding inventory steady, so revenue managers can focus on the moves that actually matter.

Native two-way sync

Direct integrations with Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, Tripadvisor, Hotelbeds, Agoda and 100+ more, no third-party connector required.

Real-time inventory & rates

Every change in your PMS reflects across every channel in under a second. No batch jobs, no overnight syncs.

Zero-overbooking safety net

Smart inventory locks during the cutover and live availability checks prevent the classic "two channels sold the same room" failure.

Rate parity & restrictions

Per-channel rate adjustments, min-stay, max-stay, closed-to-arrival and stop-sell, all from one rate plan.

Derived rate plans

Build base rates once, derive non-refundable, advance-purchase, or B2B rates from formulas. Update once, propagate everywhere.

iCal & GDS bridges

Connect long-tail channels via iCal, and reach corporate demand through GDS partnerships when you need it.

Take a closer look

Built for revenue managers who hate manual updates.

Distribution shouldn't mean spreadsheets and panic on a busy weekend. The channel manager keeps every OTA aligned automatically and surfaces only the decisions you actually need to make.

One inventory, every channel

One inventory, every channel, pushed in real time.

When a room is sold, picked up, or released, every connected channel hears about it within a second. Closeouts, openings, and rate moves propagate instantly, without a single batch job.

  • Live two-way connectivity with Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, Tripadvisor and Hotelbeds
  • Sub-second rate and inventory propagation, even on bulk updates
  • Audit log of every push and pull, so you always know what happened

Restrictions made simple

Restrictions, parity and overrides, without spreadsheets.

Set min-stay, max-stay, closed-to-arrival, stop-sell and per-channel rate offsets from a single calendar grid. The rest of the platform respects every restriction, including your booking engine and bar tabs.

  • Min/max stay, CTA/CTD, stop-sell, with bulk-edit across date ranges
  • Per-channel rate offsets and price drops, with parity warnings
  • Promotional rate plans (early-bird, non-refundable, advance-purchase) on demand

Unified guest inbox

Every guest message, from every channel, in one inbox.

Booking.com, Airbnb and direct messages sync into a single thread per guest, so your team never juggles five logins. Replies post back to the originating channel automatically, with the reservation context attached.

  • OTA message sync (Booking.com, Airbnb and more) alongside direct email and WhatsApp
  • Reservation context on every thread, arrival date, room, status
  • “Needs reply” flags so nothing waits while a guest does

Before HotelBee we had a separate channel manager, weekly overbookings, and a panicked WhatsApp group. Now everything sits inside one platform, rates change in the PMS and every channel updates in seconds. We literally have not had a single overbooking in 14 months.

Frequently asked

Questions about the channel manager, answered.

Don't see your question? Talk to our team.

How does it prevent overbookings?

The channel manager holds a small safety pool on every channel and uses live availability checks before each push. On the cutover from your old system, we run a parallel sync for 48 hours and validate every state change. In 14 months across 150+ properties we have not had a single overbooking caused by HotelBee.

How long does it take to connect a new channel?

Native channels (Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, Tripadvisor, Hotelbeds and similar) connect in under an hour once we receive your channel credentials. iCal channels are instant. Specialist connectors (Channex, Beds24, HotelRunner, WebHotelier) take a day to credential and validate.

Can I run different rates per channel?

Yes. Set base rates once, then derive per-channel rates with offsets, percentages, or fixed amounts. The same engine supports promotional rate plans (early-bird, non-refundable, advance-purchase, B2B) and per-channel restrictions (min-stay, CTA, stop-sell).

What happens if a channel goes down?

We retry pushes with exponential backoff and queue everything until the channel is back. A clear status indicator shows you which channels are healthy, which are slow and which are down, so you can decide whether to manually close inventory or wait it out.

Do you support GDS, metasearch and corporate channels?

Yes. We connect to GDS networks via specialist partners, push directly to Google Hotel Ads and Tripadvisor metasearch, and support corporate demand through HRS and Hotelbeds. For regional / specialist channels not on our native list, the iCal and Channex bridges typically cover the rest.

Can I use the channel manager without the PMS?

Technically yes, but the channel manager really sings when paired with the HotelBee PMS, because it shares the same inventory and rate plans. Most properties run both. If you have an existing PMS you cannot replace yet, talk to us about an API-only setup.
