Choosing the right booking engine is a critical step for your hotel’s growth strategy. Both Amenitiz Booking Engine and p3 Booking Engine aim to boost direct reservations and streamline guest experiences, but their approaches differ significantly. Amenitiz offers a simple, integrated solution with limited features and reviews, while p3 provides a more feature-rich, highly rated platform with extensive customer feedback. Which aligns better with your hotel’s needs?
Amenitiz’s booking engine is designed primarily for independent hotels and boutique properties, aiming to serve smaller, direct-booking-focused hotels. It promises a frictionless, mobile-first experience that integrates with Amenitiz’s broader PMS and channel management offerings, but its limited feature set and sparse recent reviews raise concerns about ongoing support and innovation.
In contrast, p3 Hotels’ booking engine is built for a broader spectrum of hotel types, including luxury and branded properties, and boasts a much higher review count (16 reviews versus 2 for Amenitiz). Its latest reviews are recent and highly favorable, emphasizing continuous improvements and excellent support. Does your hotel need a more established, feature-rich platform with a track record of customer satisfaction?
If your hotel requires a customizable, feature-rich platform capable of supporting complex booking needs, p3 is the clear choice. It offers over 43 unique features—including loyalty programs, multi-currency, multi-lingual support, and advanced tools like A/B testing and booking abandonment recapture—making it suitable for hotels seeking sophisticated online sales.
However, if your hotel primarily needs a straightforward, integrated booking solution with minimal fuss and a lower budget, Amenitiz may seem appealing. But given its very limited feature set and poor review scores (overall rating of 0.5/5), it’s unlikely to meet the needs of hotels aiming for growth and operational stability. For most hotels, p3’s proven track record and extensive features make it the safer choice.
Amenitiz’s ease of use is rated at 2.75/5, with users reporting difficulties in onboarding and navigating the platform. The limited reviews indicate a steep learning curve and support issues, which might slow your team’s adoption or cause frustration.
Meanwhile, p3 Hotels scores a 4.5/5 in ease of use, with recent reviews praising its intuitive interface and quick onboarding process. Hotels particularly appreciate the simple booking journey and the responsiveness of the support team, which contributes to faster staff adoption. Edge: p3 Hotels.
Amenitiz offers a single core feature—the booking engine—without any unique functionalities beyond basic booking capabilities. In comparison, p3 boasts 43 specialized features like loyalty integration, multi-lingual support, custom promotions, booking abandonment tools, and more, which are absent from Amenitiz.
This extensive feature set allows p3 to cater to complex operational needs and marketing strategies, whereas Amenitiz’s limited offering restricts growth potential. The clear edge goes to p3 Hotels for feature depth and adaptability.
Reviews reveal Amenitiz’s customer support as a significant weakness, with a rating of just 2.25/5. One reviewer describes the platform as “fraudulent,” citing issues with law compliance and billing practices, which indicates unreliable support and trust issues.
Conversely, p3 Hotels’ support scores at 4.59/5, with reviews praising its responsiveness, professionalism, and ongoing communication. Customers highlight the team’s availability and willingness to improve the platform. Edge: p3 Hotels.
Amenitiz has verified integrations with 5 partners—Lightspeed, Amenitiz, CheKin, Qualitelis, Vikey S.r.l.—which limits its connectivity options. This could restrict your ability to expand or customize your tech stack.
p3 Hotels offers 13 verified integrations, including major PMS, booking, and marketing tools like Oracle Hospitality, LaaSie.ai, and Triptease. Its broader ecosystem enables more flexible and comprehensive hotel management. Edge: p3 Hotels.
Based on available reviews, Amenitiz’s ratings are extremely low—just 0.5/5 overall—mainly due to support and usability issues, with only 55% likelihood of recommendation. This suggests dissatisfaction among its very limited user base.
In contrast, p3 Hotels scores a 4.67/5 overall, with a 94% likelihood to recommend and reviews from a more diverse hotel segment, including luxury and boutique properties. Its recent reviews highlight continual improvements and high satisfaction. Edge: p3 Hotels.
Amenitiz does not publish pricing details, which suggests a potential custom quote or limited transparency. Its lack of a free trial and unclear costs make budgeting uncertain.
p3 Hotels charges a flat rate of $500/month, with no free trial or hidden fees. Its transparent pricing, combined with a proven ROI, makes it easier for your team to evaluate the value proposition.
Not ideal if your hotel needs advanced customization, extensive features, or high support levels.
Not ideal if your hotel prefers a minimal, low-cost solution without a need for advanced features or integrations.
The core difference lies in their maturity and feature set. Amenitiz offers a basic, streamlined booking engine for small properties but suffers from poor support and limited functionality, making it unsuitable for hotels looking to grow.
p3 delivers a comprehensive, highly rated platform with a broad featureset, excellent support, and extensive integrations, making it the optimal choice for hotels committed to increasing direct bookings and operational flexibility.
If your hotel values a proven, feature-rich solution capable of supporting complex needs and future growth, choose p3 Hotels. Its recent reviews and high satisfaction ratings confirm its effectiveness.
However, if your hotel is very small, on a tight budget, and only needs a simple booking solution, Amenitiz might suffice—though its limited support and features suggest it’s not ideal for longer-term success.
In conclusion, for most hotels seeking growth and reliability, p3 offers a more secure, feature-rich, and well-supported platform. Amenitiz may only serve very basic needs and could hinder your hotel’s ability to scale efficiently.

| Criteria Group | Weight | What It Measures |
|---|---|---|
| Customer Ratings & Reviews |
|
How highly do users recommend this product? Ratings Score, Review Volume, Share of Voice, Review Depth, Review Recency, Success Stories ▾ The most heavily weighted factor. Analyzes average satisfaction ratings (likelihood to recommend, ease of use, support, ROI), total review count relative to category peers, review recency (at least 20 reviews in the trailing 6 months), and share of voice across unique hotel clients to detect selection bias. |
| Partner Ecosystem |
|
How highly do tech partners recommend this company? Partner Recommendations, Integration Quantity, Integration Quality ▾ Evaluates partner recommendations as expert votes of confidence, the number of verified integrations, and ecosystem quality — the average HT Scores of integration partners. Products with higher-quality integration ecosystems are more likely to deliver a connected tech stack. |
| Customer Centricity |
|
How customer-centric is this organization? Certified Support, Review Consistency, Profile Completeness ▾ Assesses whether the company has earned HTR Customer Support Certification, maintains consistent review collection over time (an indicator of feedback-driven culture), and keeps product profiles complete with capabilities, screenshots, pricing, and features. |
| Reach, Staying Power & Resources |
|
How extensive is this company's reach and resourcing? Geographic Reach, Staying Power, Company Resources, Trending Score ▾ Measures global presence (countries and regions served), years in business as a stability proxy, team headcount as a resource proxy, and a trending score based on trailing-twelve-month buyer inquiries, reviews, partner recommendations, and press activity. |
Customer ratings and reviews are by far the most important factor in the HT Score algorithm. HTR does not accept payment for higher rankings. All reviews are verified — only hotel industry practitioners with confirmed affiliations can submit ratings. View full HT Score methodology →
