Sirvoy
Swedish hotel management system for independent hotels, B&Bs and guesthouses: booking engine with 0% commission, one-page site with no code, invoicing and basic accounting, automatic SMS, and a channel manager (Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, Agoda, Hostelworld) in the Pro plan. Free for a property with one room and up to 5 extras; Starter at €11 a month billed annually (€12 monthly), Pro at €41 billed annually (€44 monthly). 14-day trial. Booking engine in more than 20 languages; French version of the site.
The room occupancy calendar, rates, invoicing and a direct booking form can be built for a small property, and that is the part Sirvoy charges little for. The gap is the channel manager: continuously synchronising availability with Booking.com, Expedia or Airbnb goes through approved connections that each platform reserves for partners. If you only sell direct, a custom tool is enough; as soon as you sell through online agencies, a PMS like Sirvoy avoids the risk of double bookings.
What you lose
- The channel manager linked to Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, Agoda and Hostelworld.
- The booking engine in more than 20 languages.
- Automatic SMS to guests.
- The vendor's 24/7 support.
Existing alternatives to Sirvoy
- QloAppsOpen source
Open-source hotel booking system (OSL-3.0) built on PrestaShop: booking engine and room management; connections to online travel agencies are up to you.
What a home-built tool costs once it exists
- Hosting and database: a server cost, and automatic backups you actually test.
- Security and GDPR: dependency updates, an HTTPS certificate, protection of your customers’ data.
- Upkeep time: who fixes the tool on a Saturday night in the middle of service if the server goes down?
The prompt to build it yourself
Build a small direct-booking system for my guesthouse, replacing hotel management software. Context: 6 rooms, I only sell direct (phone, email, website), not through online agencies. To do: - Rooms and room types with rates by season and number of guests. - A visual booking calendar per room, with conflict detection and date blocking. - A booking request form on my site (dates, guests, contact details) that creates a request to approve, then a confirmation email in French and English. - A PDF invoice at checkout with tourist tax calculated per person and per night. - A guest file and an arrival reminder the day before by email. Out of scope: synchronisation with Booking.com, Airbnb and other agencies, online payment. Stack: web app, PostgreSQL. README: how to run, backup, a reminder to declare the tourist tax and keep the police registration form for foreign travellers.
