Choosing a property management system (PMS) is crucial for your hotel's operational efficiency and revenue growth. Both HoresPlus by Hores and innRoad aim to streamline your hotel management tasks, but they differ significantly in their features, market presence, and user feedback. Your choice should hinge on your hotel’s size, complexity, and specific operational needs. What are the key differences that can help you decide?
HoresPlus offers a broad suite of features primarily focused on operational control, including multilingual support, native email marketing, and ID scanning, but it has zero recent reviews or ratings, indicating limited current user feedback. In contrast, innRoad dominates recent feedback with over 238 reviews and an overall rating of 4.7/5, making it the more established and trusted option among hoteliers.
While HoresPlus claims decades of service to over 600 hotels, the absence of recent reviews makes it hard to assess current performance. InnRoad’s latest reviews highlight its ease of use, customer support, and notable revenue increases, making it the safer bet for hotels seeking proven impact. Are you willing to rely on a lesser-reviewed platform with extensive features or a highly-rated system with recent success stories?
If your hotel needs a flexible, online-driven PMS with a focus on increasing bookings and revenue, innRoad is the clear choice. Its robust integration with OTAs, high customer ratings, and proven revenue lift make it ideal for mid-sized and larger hotels aiming for growth.
On the other hand, if your hotel requires extensive operational control with multilingual support, native email marketing, and ID scanning, HoresPlus might appeal — but only if you can accept the lack of current user feedback. For most hotels, especially those prioritizing recent customer validation, innRoad’s 4.7/5 rating and 238 reviews make it the more reliable choice.
InnRoad’s user reviews consistently highlight its intuitive interface, with a 4.49/5 ease of use rating, and praise its straightforward reservation management. Customers frequently mention how quickly staff adopt innRoad after onboarding, with many citing its visual Tape Chart as simple and effective.
In contrast, HoresPlus has no recent reviews or ratings, making it impossible to gauge its current usability. Given innRoad’s strong recent feedback and high support ratings (4.54/5), it clearly offers a more user-friendly experience for your team.
Edge: innRoad.
innRoad offers 15 features exclusive to its platform, including a booking engine, channel management, revenue management, and native email marketing, which are highly valued by users. HoresPlus provides 8 unique features such as ID scanning and rules-based room assignments, focusing more on operational details.
Both platforms share 41 features, but innRoad’s extensive integration with revenue, marketing, and booking tools makes it more suitable for hotels looking to boost direct bookings and revenue. If comprehensive online and revenue features are your priority, innRoad has the edge.
Edge: innRoad.
innRoad’s support ratings are notably high at 4.54/5, with many reviews praising its 24/7 live customer support and proactive onboarding. Customers appreciate the quick, professional assistance, especially when resolving glitches or system issues.
HoresPlus, lacking recent reviews, offers no current support ratings or feedback, but historically, the company emphasizes its 30 years of experience. Without recent data, innRoad’s consistently positive support experience makes it the safer choice.
Edge: innRoad.
innRoad excels with 34 verified partners, including popular integrations like Quickbooks, Revinate, and RateGain, offering extensive connectivity. HoresPlus has only 7 verified partners, with limited shared integrations, mainly Profitroom and Onity.
The breadth of innRoad’s integrations ensures your hotel can connect with essential marketing, revenue, and operational tools, reducing manual work and error. If integrations are critical, innRoad is the clear winner.
Edge: innRoad.
InnRoad’s reviews are plentiful and recent, with an overall rating of 4.7/5 based on 238 reviews, primarily from small to mid-sized hotels and resorts. Hoteliers praise its ease of use, support, and revenue impact, with some reporting up to 100% revenue increase.
HoresPlus’s ratings are nonexistent in recent data, making it impossible to evaluate current user sentiment. Given the volume and recency of innRoad reviews, it holds the higher reputation among hoteliers today.
Edge: innRoad.
HoresPlus does not publicize pricing or offer a free trial, making it difficult to evaluate its value. innRoad charges a flat $300/month, with no hidden fees, and includes free data migration, providing transparency and predictability for your budget.
While innRoad’s flat-rate pricing may seem standard, it allows you to compare ROI directly against the system’s features and support quality. HoresPlus’s undefined pricing model leaves uncertainty in your decision.
Not ideal if you:
Not ideal if you:
innRoad is a versatile, well-supported PMS with proven revenue-boosting features, making it suitable for hotels seeking growth and operational efficiency. Its recent reviews and extensive integrations give it a clear advantage over HoresPlus.
HoresPlus offers operational features like ID scanning and multilingual support but lacks recent validation of its performance. Unless your hotel specifically needs those operational controls and is comfortable with limited recent feedback, innRoad is the safer, more reliable choice.
For hoteliers prioritizing recent user reviews, ease of use, and revenue impact, innRoad stands out as the better option. If operational control in niche markets is your focus, and you accept the risk of limited recent feedback, HoresPlus could still be relevant—but only if proven performance is less critical.
According to HTR's product database, HoresPlus and innRoad share 41 features. Here are the key differences — features one has that the other lacks.

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. Hores has an HT Score of 0 and innRoad has 31. 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 →
