Choosing the right booking engine for your hotel can significantly influence direct bookings, operational efficiency, and guest satisfaction. ReservHOTEL and Roiback are both solutions designed to boost your online presence, but they serve different needs and come with distinct strengths. Your decision hinges on your hotel’s size, budget, and specific goals.
ReservHOTEL is a small but highly rated platform with recent reviews confirming its ease of use and robust support. Roiback, on the other hand, boasts a larger user base, more features, and a broader international presence, although it has fewer recent reviews. Do you prioritize user satisfaction and simplicity, or a more feature-rich, globally integrated platform?
ReservHOTEL’s full five-star rating and recent reviews from a small user base make it the safer, more reliable choice for hotels seeking straightforward, high-touch service. Roiback’s extensive features and larger market presence appeal to hotels with complex needs and larger budgets, but its lower overall rating and fewer recent reviews suggest it might require more effort to optimize.
ReservHOTEL’s superior rating, recent reviews, and dedicated support make it the clear leader for most hoteliers. If you want a proven, easy-to-implement solution, go with ReservHOTEL. For those willing to invest in depth and customization, Roiback is worth considering, but expect a steeper learning curve.
ReservHOTEL and Roiback aim to increase your direct bookings and streamline distribution, but their approaches differ sharply. ReservHOTEL specializes in providing a simple, intuitive booking engine with access to major GDSs and a focus on direct booking growth, particularly for resorts and luxury hotels. Roiback, meanwhile, offers a highly customizable, feature-rich platform with broad international reach, suitable for larger, multi-market hotels.
ReservHOTEL’s recent zero-review count in last six months raises questions about ongoing support, but its 5-star ratings and 97% likelihood to recommend indicate high satisfaction from its few users. Roiback’s 43 reviews, though less recent, show a committed customer base and a wide feature set, but its overall 0/5 overall rating signals potential issues with user experience or support.
Are you looking for a simple, highly-rated solution with recent positive feedback, or a more complex platform with numerous features but less recent validation?
If your hotel needs a straightforward, reliable booking engine that integrates with your existing systems and offers excellent support, ReservHOTEL is the better option. It’s ideal for small to medium-sized hotels prioritizing ease of use and quick deployment, especially given its perfect ease-of-use rating and high customer support scores.
If your hotel requires extensive customization, multi-lingual capabilities, or a broader feature set for complex marketing and distribution strategies, Roiback is more suitable. It accommodates larger properties, chains, and hotels targeting international markets, with its 27 integrations and multi-currency support.
In summary, choose ReservHOTEL if your goal is to simplify operations and maximize direct bookings without extensive technical overhead. Opt for Roiback if your hotel can benefit from advanced features, flexible customization, and a wider global reach.
ReservHOTEL’s UI, rated 5/5, emphasizes simplicity, with an onboarding process that scores a perfect 5/5, making it quick for your team to adopt. Its reviews highlight a friendly, easy-to-navigate platform that’s suitable for hotels with limited technical resources. Review quotes like “Very professional company to work with” and “Very friendly and easy to use” underscore its user-friendly design.
Roiback’s platform scores 4.49/5 on ease of use, with a well-regarded interface and effective onboarding. However, some users note that its broader features can introduce complexity, requiring more training and adjustment time. Support responsiveness is highly rated, but the learning curve is steeper.
Edge: ReservHOTEL.
Roiback offers a far larger suite of features—31 compared to ReservHOTEL’s 5—with unique capabilities like multi-lingual support, rate comparison widgets, Google Hotel Ads, TripAdvisor bookings, and advanced analytics. These features enable sophisticated marketing campaigns, multi-currency transactions, and extensive customization, making Roiback suitable for larger, international hotels.
ReservHOTEL’s five features focus on core booking functions, including rate management, promotional offers, and automated reporting. Its standout feature is its integration with GDS and air packages, which can drive ancillary revenue. For hotels seeking a simple yet effective booking engine, ReservHOTEL’s feature set suffices.
Edge: Roiback.
ReservHOTEL’s customer support scores a perfect 5/5, with reviews calling it “very professional” and “great support team.” Its onboarding process is rated 5/5, indicating your team will receive dedicated assistance, making deployment and troubleshooting straightforward.
Roiback’s support is also highly regarded, with a rating of 4.72/5. Users appreciate the responsiveness and personalized consulting, especially for its strategic advice and ongoing feature updates. Yet, its support reviews are fewer and less recent, which may suggest less current engagement.
Edge: ReservHOTEL.
Roiback connects with 27 verified partners, including major channel managers and tech providers like RoomRaccoon, YieldPlanet, and Triptease, offering extensive flexibility. It also supports native integrations with popular PMS systems, streamlining operations for larger properties.
ReservHOTEL features 21 verified integrations, including key partners such as SiteMinder, Amadeus, and Expedia, but with fewer options overall. Its integrations are robust but less extensive, suited for hotels with simpler distribution needs.
Edge: Roiback.
ReservHOTEL’s recent reviews, all in the past six months, rate it 5/5 with a 97% likelihood to recommend—testament to its high satisfaction among its small but loyal user base. Resorts and luxury hotels particularly praise its ease of use and support.
Roiback’s 43 reviews paint a mixed picture, with lower ratings and some reports of technical issues and slower responsiveness. Its larger, more diverse hotel clientele includes boutique and city hotels, but the overall sentiment is less enthusiastic.
Edge: ReservHOTEL.
ReservHOTEL does not publicly disclose pricing, but it is generally offered on a quote basis, with no implementation or monthly fees. Its transparent approach suggests a flexible, potentially lower-cost option for smaller hotels.
Roiback charges a $500 monthly fee, with no implementation fees or freemium options. Its costs are higher, reflecting its extensive feature set and global reach, making it more suitable for larger hotels with bigger budgets.
Not ideal if your hotel requires advanced analytics, multi-currency support, or complex marketing tools.
ReservHOTEL offers a straightforward, well-rated booking engine that excels in ease of use, support, and direct booking growth. Its perfect ratings and recent reviews make it a reliable choice for small to medium-sized hotels that want quick results without technical complexity.
Roiback provides a more extensive feature set, broader integrations, and a global presence. It suits larger hotels or chains seeking advanced customization, multi-lingual support, and detailed analytics, though its lower overall ratings and fewer recent reviews suggest it may require more effort to implement effectively.
In summary, if your hotel values simplicity, stellar support, and proven results, ReservHOTEL is the safer, more confident choice. If your operation demands complex features and international reach, Roiback could be the better fit, provided you are prepared for a steeper learning curve.
This comparison is based on the latest available ratings, reviews, and feature data, emphasizing recent feedback to guide your decision.

|---|---|---|
| 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. |

| Customer Centricity |
|
How customer-centric is this organization?

|
How extensive is this company's reach and resourcing?
