Choosing between HotelRunner Channel Manager and Levart Channel Control boils down to your hotel's specific needs and the features that matter most to your team. Both solutions aim to streamline your distribution channels and reduce manual effort, but HotelRunner offers a more comprehensive and widely reviewed platform, while Levart focuses on extensive connectivity. How do their capabilities fit your operational goals?
HotelRunner boasts a robust set of features, including inventory management, marketing tools, and detailed reporting, supported by over 109 reviews and recent feedback from the last six months. Levart’s core strength lies in connecting properties to over 100 OTAs and GDS but has no public reviews or recent feedback to validate its performance.
HotelRunner’s user base is global, with a strong presence in Europe, the Middle East, and North America, and is highly rated at 4.78/5 from 109 reviews. Levart’s regional reach is limited mainly to Asia Pacific and has no available reviews or ratings, making it harder to gauge real-world performance.
Are you comfortable relying on a highly-rated, well-reviewed platform, or do you prefer an unreviewed solution promising extensive channel connections? The choice hinges on proven user satisfaction versus potential connectivity breadth.
If your hotel needs an all-in-one management platform with a channel manager as part of an integrated hotel system, HotelRunner is the clear choice. It’s ideal for hotels, especially boutique and independent properties, seeking advanced features like email marketing, web development, and detailed analytics.
If your primary goal is to connect to numerous OTAs and GDS efficiently, Levart might seem attractive. However, with no available reviews or proven user feedback, the safer bet is HotelRunner, which has demonstrated consistent satisfaction among a large user base.
For hotels wanting a proven, highly-rated tool with extensive integrations and support, HotelRunner is the stronger option. Levart’s promise of broad connectivity remains unverified publicly, making HotelRunner the more reliable pick.
HotelRunner’s ease of use is supported by a 4.7/5 rating based on 109 reviews, with users praising its intuitive interface and straightforward setup. The onboarding process scores 4.74/5, and clients mention live support, particularly helpful for those less tech-savvy, making adoption smoother.
Levart, lacking official ratings or reviews, has no publicly available data on usability. Without user feedback, it’s impossible to assess how user-friendly or straightforward their platform is.
Edge: HotelRunner.
HotelRunner offers 13 features exclusive to its platform, including email marketing, web development, data analysis, meta search marketing, social media management, inventory grid, and integrated payment processing. These features enable a more comprehensive hotel management experience.
Levart provides only one unique feature—multi-currency support—focusing mainly on channel connectivity. Shared features like rate and availability updates are similar, but HotelRunner’s broader suite of tools gives it a notable edge.
Edge: HotelRunner.
HotelRunner’s customer support scores 4.7/5, with reviews highlighting quick, helpful responses and dedicated live support agents, such as Patricia, who guided users through setup. Clients describe their support as “responsive” and “reliable,” reducing operational disruptions.
Levart offers no public data, ratings, or reviews about customer support. Its absence of feedback makes it difficult to evaluate its responsiveness or quality.
Edge: HotelRunner.
HotelRunner boasts 17 verified integrations, including major OTAs and GDS like Expedia, Booking.com, and hotel management systems like protel and Hotelogix. It also offers integrations with payment processors and marketing tools.
Levart has 13 verified integrations, including key platforms like Tripadvisor, RMS, and GuestPoint, but fewer overall options. Shared integrations with HotelRunner include Oracle Hospitality, Airbnb, and Agoda.
Edge: HotelRunner.
HotelRunner’s overall rating of 4.78/5 comes from 109 reviews, with recent feedback reinforcing strong satisfaction, especially among boutique and independent hotels. Users praise its ease of use, support, and features.
Levart has no recent reviews or ratings available, making it impossible to gauge user satisfaction or compare experience levels.
Edge: HotelRunner.
HotelRunner’s pricing starts at $100 per month, with no freemium, free trial, or implementation fees, offering a straightforward subscription model. Levart’s pricing details are not publicly disclosed, which complicates direct cost comparison.
Given the transparent pricing of HotelRunner and the lack of pricing info for Levart, HotelRunner provides better clarity and value transparency.
Not ideal if you have minimal technical resources or prefer a lightweight, limited-channel connectivity solution.
Not ideal if you require detailed analytics, marketing tools, or proven customer support.
HotelRunner is the more established, reviewed, and feature-rich platform. Its extensive integrations, high user ratings, and ongoing support make it a dependable choice for hotels of various types. Its broad geographic presence and proven customer satisfaction set it apart.
Levart offers excellent connectivity potential but lacks public reviews or recent customer feedback, making its reliability uncertain. Its focus on OTA connections and multi-currency support might appeal to specific markets but lacks the validation of HotelRunner’s proven track record.
If you're looking for a trusted, comprehensive channel management platform with proven user satisfaction, HotelRunner is the clear recommendation. Choose Levart only if your hotel’s primary need is extensive OTA connectivity and you’re comfortable with unverified support and performance.

| 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. |
