Choosing the right property management software (PMS) is critical for your hotel’s operational success and guest satisfaction. BedBricks and RoomKey PMS are both designed to handle core hotel tasks, but they diverge significantly in maturity, feature set, and market presence. Your decision hinges on whether you prioritize a system with more recent, extensive reviews or one that offers broader integrations and proven support.
Given the available data, RoomKey PMS leads in reviews, recent feedback, and customer satisfaction ratings. But which PMS truly fits your hotel’s needs? Let’s examine both options in depth.
BedBricks positions itself as a comprehensive, AI-enabled PMS that centralizes operations like reservations, billing, and guest communications. However, it has no publicly available reviews or ratings, making it impossible to gauge user satisfaction or real-world performance.
RoomKey PMS, by contrast, boasts over 50 reviews with a high overall rating of 4.62/5 and a recent NPS score of 9.38/10. Hotels praise its ease of use, excellent support, and extensive feature set, making it a trusted choice for independent hotels seeking reliability and support.
Since BedBricks lacks recent reviews, it’s challenging to assess its actual performance. Do you want a product with proven satisfaction and ongoing development? Or are you open to a less-tested solution? The choice heavily favors RoomKey PMS based on current customer feedback.
If your hotel needs a mature platform with established support, extensive integrations, and a broad feature set, RoomKey PMS is the clear choice. Its 50 verified reviews and 4.62/5 rating reflect consistent user satisfaction across diverse hotel segments, especially boutique, resort, and city-center properties.
Conversely, if your team prefers an all-in-one, AI-driven system aiming for automation and guest review analysis, BedBricks might appeal—though its lack of reviews and market presence make it a high-risk, unproven option. Hotels that prioritize stability and proven support should lean toward RoomKey PMS, while those experimenting with newer tech may consider BedBricks, understanding the risks.
RoomKey PMS earns a strong 4.44/5 ease-of-use rating from users, who highlight its intuitive interface, quick onboarding, and minimal training requirements. Its well-designed features, such as the rate calendar and mobile check-in, enable staff to perform tasks efficiently with less frustration.
BedBricks, lacking any rating or user feedback, provides no data on usability. Given the absence of reviews, you cannot reliably assess its interface quality or onboarding process.
Edge: RoomKey PMS.
RoomKey PMS offers a robust suite with 26 unique features, including guest CRM, booking engine, ancillary revenue tracking, housekeeper module, integrated CRS, and revenue management tools. These functionalities support comprehensive hotel operations and revenue growth.
BedBricks, with zero featured capabilities listed, appears to lack a detailed feature set or proven modules. Without concrete features to evaluate, it’s impossible to compare the offerings.
Edge: RoomKey PMS.
RoomKey PMS’s customer support is highly praised, with a 4.91/5 rating and frequent comments about their responsiveness, knowledgeable staff, and dedicated service. Reviewers often mention how support has helped resolve issues swiftly, contributing to smooth operations.
BedBricks does not have review data or ratings on support, leaving uncertainty about its responsiveness and quality. Based on current evidence, your team would benefit from RoomKey PMS’s proven, high-rated support.
Edge: RoomKey PMS.
RoomKey PMS stands out with 56 verified integrations, including major channel managers, booking engines, and revenue tools like Sage, Volo, and GuestCentric. These integrations streamline workflows and enhance system connectivity.
BedBricks offers no verified integrations, limiting its ability to connect with other systems, which could hinder operational flexibility. If integrations are vital for your hotel, RoomKey PMS is the clear winner.
Edge: RoomKey PMS.
While BedBricks has no reviews or ratings, RoomKey PMS’s 50 reviews reflect very high satisfaction, with a 4.62/5 overall score. Independent hotels, resort properties, and boutique hotels particularly appreciate its ease of use and support.
Since BedBricks lacks recent reviews, it’s impossible to gauge hotel ratings, but current feedback favors RoomKey PMS as the more trusted, highly-rated system.
Edge: RoomKey PMS.
Both products do not publish public pricing details; they likely follow custom quotes based on hotel size and needs. This common approach makes direct price comparison impossible without contacting sales.
Given the lack of transparent pricing, your team should consider the total value, feature set, and support quality when evaluating these options.
Not ideal if your hotel needs proven stability, extensive integrations, or relies on immediate support from a well-established vendor.
Not ideal if your hotel requires a system with a modern visual design or if your operation is very small and doesn’t need the full scope of features.
RoomKey PMS stands out as the more proven solution with a large base of recent, positive reviews, making it a safer choice for most hotels. Its feature-rich platform, high customer satisfaction, and broad integrations support diverse hotel types effectively.
BedBricks, while promising with its AI capabilities, lacks sufficient reviews and market presence to recommend confidently. If your hotel values stability, support, and proven functionality, RoomKey PMS is the clear option.
If you are open to exploring emerging technologies and are willing to accept the risk of less established support, BedBricks could be a candidate—but only after thorough testing. For most hoteliers, especially those seeking reliable, well-supported management, RoomKey PMS remains the better pick.

The HT Score is a composite ranking that considers 4 criteria groups and over a dozen variables to help hoteliers objectively compare hotel technology products. BedBricks has an HT Score of 0 and RoomKey PMS has 18. Here is how the score is calculated.
| 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 →
