Web based hotel reservation software is hotel software where your guests could make their room reservation through your hotel website with ease. There are types of of vendors whom could provide you a web based hotel reservation software, but how do you know that the system will improve your hotel business?When you intend to purchase a web based hotel, make sure that the hotel reservation software could provide instant confirmation of the room to your guest via email. Plus, it notifies your staff as well.
In addition, when your guest makes the room reservation, security of the system is very important. You don't want your guest to send their financial information such as credit card details through insecure channels where hackers could easily steal the credit card information.
For security reason, please ensure that your guest information and their financial details are sent using encrypted channel by using at least high grade 128 SSL certificate.
In terms of room pricing, the system should be flexible enough to have different types of pricing rates, whether you want to sell your rooms by daily rates or packages rates.
The system should also be flexible to have different type of rates for each season. For example, for high peak season such as Christmas holiday, you could set the room pricing higher and for low peak season you could sell the room rates lower to increase your room occupancy.
If the web based hotel software could charge your guest credit card for late cancellation and no show then it is a bonus. Since, there is not many web based hotel software suppliers that have the facility to charge guest credit card for late cancellation and no show cases.
Finally, look for a vendor who could also provide internet marketing service for your hotel. With internet marketing service provided by the vendor, you don't have to worry about driving traffic and sales to your hotel. The vendor will do the internet marketing activities to maximize your hotel revenue.
