HMS by HotelRunner

"One of my favorite new features that they just started this year is Guest Relationship Management… Besides that, we also can take reservations from our own website with the help of the HotelRunner platform and get reservations on Booking.com. Those are all really helpful for us."

"Honestly, I called all the companies. However, HotelRunner responded very quickly and excellently. They said, “If your computer is on, we can start now.” In nearly 30 minutes, the system was set and running. This is something I will never forget… Before HotelRunner, we were working with one or two, of the most well-known channels. Thanks to HotelRunner, we are now working with 15 sales channels. Of course, their productivity varies, but my hotel is on all of them and promoted to more potential guests."

"HotelRunner has a mobile application, which I haven’t heard of any other company that has one. The fact that HotelRunner has this product is really crowd-pulling and attractive. It is a product that helps us access our hotel 24/7 quickly. Since we handle most of our work with HotelRunner and gain time and speed, we integrated our sales team into other work. We not only took advantage of our sales team but also, thanks to the benefits of HotelRunner, we started to realize other advantages. It’s a win-win situation."

"After we sent an email to HotelRunner, they returned to us very quickly. After they gave the HotelRunner training and the necessary information, we became a part of HotelRunner within a day. When we went to the meeting, we saw a very experienced team during their presentation. They were able to answer all of our questions. The first thing I say to those around us who saw our experience and said, “We want to do the same” is “Talk to HotelRunner first”. There are so many alternatives to find and rent a hotel in a convenient destination. However, there are very few alternatives for hotel sales management platforms that you can get such good support."

"When we decided to use HotelRunner, we first consulted many hotels. We searched the channels they were using. After we got a few demos and evaluated the price-benefit balance, we decided that HotelRunner was the best for us. The most important thing that differentiates HotelRunner from other companies is that it offers direct connections with online channels like Booking.com, Airbnb, and many more. It also enables us to reach more and various channels. Before we started working with HotelRunner, we had been managing our online sales operations manually, which had been taking a lot of time. After we started working with HotelRunner, we were able to solve our problems within minutes."

"HoteRunner exceeded our expectations in terms of support and communication. Before HotelRunner we were working with only one channel. After we started working with HotelRunner, we had the chance to work with many channels. We were able to manage all the availability through one single platform easily. Thanks to HotelRunner’s Booking Engine we started to receive direct bookings from our website. Also, the mobile application makes everything a lot easier. We can update our rates and availability and add bookings to the system instantly. I recommend HotelRunner to every hotel that wants a seamless operation and also cares about guest satisfaction."

"HotelRunner has many features that are remarkable and appealing to us such as the payment methods, mobile application, and prompt support that they provide. It offers many practical solutions to us. When you reach 16 properties like us, these kinds of things become very important. It is not very possible for me to handle the operations of 16 properties in 8 hours. I have to carry the entire office with me all the time. We have too many properties, and we have to make instant changes all the time. Therefore, HotelRunner’s Mobile Application is very important to me."

"The most important feature that distinguishes HotelRunner from other channel managers is its wide network and connections. It works with many channels and makes it easier for us to reach these channels. The best part is that it allows us to get bookings from our own website via our own booking engine seamlessly. Before we started working with HotelRunner, we were trying to check each booking on different extranets. It was very difficult to set rates and promotions. Thanks to HotelRunner, we started to save a serious amount of time. Thus, we had the chance to deal with our other work items by spending less time on sales and marketing."

"When you think about the HotelRunner platform in detail, you can clearly see that all the features are quite ahead of their time. As part of its channel management service, it offers nearly 150 sales channels. This broad portfolio offers you a great advantage to access any market in the world easily with just one “click”. Whether you have 10, 20, or 300 rooms, it shouldn’t raise a question mark whether to use HotelRunner or not. Because at these two extreme points, HotelRunner will successfully provide the service you need with its strong infrastructure."

"The most important reason why we chose HotelRunner is that the platform is incredibly fast. For boutique hotels, like ours, the biggest fear is being overbooked. With HotelRunner, this is never an issue as it adjusts availability in real-time. I also find the mobile application very useful. For example, I was driving home yesterday when my phone rang. A guest was asking if we had any availability. I pulled the car over and opened the application. Within minutes, I was able to confirm the reservation. I’m so happy to say that we haven’t experienced any overbookings or any kind of problems. I hope we will continue working together for many more years."

"After we started working with HotelRunner, we were able to update our rates, availability, and all our inventory in real-time. Thanks to the HotelRunner platform, we had the opportunity to meet and communicate with many online travel agencies we had not worked with before. Thus, we started to receive reservations from many different markets. This is a great advantage for us. I would recommend HotelRunner to all hotels that are experienced like us or new to the industry and have no experience yet; so they can get the chance to work with an easy-to-use, open-to-development, and dynamic platform."

"After meeting HotelRunner, the biggest change we experienced in our business was that it gave us the opportunity to open up to different markets by accessing a lot of channels. Apart from that, it enabled us to save time. Previously, one staff member was only dealing with price and availability updates the entire day. Now we can do it in minutes. I believe HotelRunner is very successful. I strongly recommend it to every hotel with high room capacity in the industry. They can easily use HotelRunner."

"When we decided to work with HotelRunner, we considered many factors. One of them was that HotelRunner had very strong partnerships with global online travel agencies that lead the industry. We asked these partners for reference before making a decision. We are connected to 18 channels through HotelRunner and among these channels, B2B channels play an important role for us. HotelRunner’s support for both B2B and B2C channels is very important for us. Also, before we started working with HotelRunner, we were very keen to improve our direct sales channel. The user interface of the HotelRunner Booking Engine was easy to use and mobile-friendly, which was a big plus for us."

"After meeting Christophe Bazille, our contact person, we quickly decided to use HotelRunner as our channel manager exclusively. The best thing about choosing HotelRunner is having peace of mind, the simplicity of use, and knowing that we can be visible on a large number of OTAs, which wasn’t the case earlier. I definitely recommend HotelRunner. It’s an extremely simple platform to use, and very user-friendly. The support team is always available and very responsive and the price-quality balance is perfect for me."

"When we were launching our hotel, our strategy was to approach directly to the guests, so we needed a platform to allow us to do that. At this point, DES Management introduced HotelRunner to us. HotelRunner’s booking engine facilitated this process for us. We achieved more than 55% of direct bookings through the booking engine. The thing about HotelRunner is that it is a really advanced and innovative tech company. For example, their new review center allows us to reply to all guest reviews from the same platform. Another thing HotelRunner provides is dynamic pricing which allows us to change rates on a daily basis, depending on our needs which ultimately leads to higher revenue. If I had a magic wand for the hospitality industry, I would make the industry more accessible to the guests by using more technology with a platform such as HotelRunner."

"ore we joined HotelRunner Elite, we faced challenges in pricing, strategy, managing room availability, and keeping tabs on nearby properties. HotelRunner Elite has been a game-changer for us. It has provided us with speed and a competitive edge. We can dynamically monitor room availability, allowing us to adjust our pricing based on the competition accurately. We’re also able to secure future reservations swiftly. By streamlining the booking process, we’ve gained better control over pricing and budgeting, consistently surpassing our targets. To us, HotelRunner Elite is accessible, dynamic, and sincere."

"The most important features that separates HotelRunner from other companies are the services that they provide and the team that supports us quickly whenever we ask a question… The Mobile Application is really important for us. Because, unfortunately, we cannot be at the hotel 24/7. But the hotel operates 24/7. Being informed about incoming guests and what is happening are very important for sales and reservation teams. After we started to work with HotelRunner, the biggest change for us was actually ‘time’. We are now able to complete a task in minutes, which was taking hours before."

"What distinguishes HotelRunner from other companies is that we can get results very fast, it shows a unique approach according to our wishes and needs and its strong infrastructure. HotelRunner has a technological infrastructure that connects us with the world and develops constantly. HotelRunner is not just a channel manager. It provides great convenience to hotels with many products and services like guest relationship management, front office management, and integration with different sales channels. Therefore, it is more correct to see HotelRunner as an end-to-end hotel management solution. The time and effort HotelRunner saves us are priceless."
