Love the fact that we have only 1 calendar for Airbnb, booking.com and Vrbo. Data flow is bidirectional so we never have to go to individual sites.

All messaging is done through hospitable app no matter where the booking came from. AI usage in the messaging is amazing. It significantly improved our response time to our guests.

How it works

Connecting Booking.com to Hospitable takes about ten minutes: connect your property through Booking.com's extranet, import your listings, match them to properties, turn on sync.

Connect in the extranet

Authorise Hospitable from your Booking.com account. The connection uses Booking.com's official API.

Import your listings

Listings, rates and upcoming reservations come across automatically. Nothing on Booking.com changes yet.

Match listings to properties

Confirm which listings are the same space. Merged listings share one calendar.

Turn on sync

Hospitable becomes the source of truth. Change something once, it applies everywhere.

Hospitable

Go beyond just Booking.com

Make more out of each property by listing in more places, without multiplying the work behind every reservation.

Common questions

What is a Booking.com channel manager?

A Booking.com channel manager is software that connects a Booking.com account to the other booking sites a property is listed on, keeping rates, availability and reservations identical across all of them.

More complete tools like Hospitable also bring guest messaging, automation, listing management and reviews into the same workflow, so the whole operation runs from one place rather than from the extranet.

Do I need a channel manager for Booking.com?

Not always. If you run one property on Booking.com alone and you're happy working in the extranet, you probably don't need one yet.

A channel manager earns its place once you manage several listings, repeat the same messages every week, coordinate a cleaning team, or list the same property on more than one booking site.

Is Hospitable an official Booking.com channel manager?

Yes. Hospitable is a Booking.com Premier Connectivity Partner and connects through Booking.com's official connectivity API.

That certified connection carries far more than calendar availability: guest messages, listing content, nightly rates, stay restrictions and reviews all move through it.

Is there a free Booking.com channel manager?

Yes. Hospitable’s Essentials plan costs nothing and includes real channel management, with calendar sync, unlimited properties, a unified inbox, and automated messaging.

Paid plans unlock more advanced automation, pricing, team, and operational features, plus enhanced support. You can try them free for 14 days with no credit card required.

How do I prevent double bookings across Booking.com and other channels?

Keep one system as the source of truth for availability. Hospitable syncs reservations between connected listings, so a booking on one channel blocks those dates on the others without you blocking anything by hand.

No channel manager can make a double booking impossible, but automated syncing cuts the risk substantially compared with managing calendars manually.

Can I handle Booking.com guest messages from Hospitable?

Yes. Booking.com conversations arrive in the Hospitable inbox, where AI can draft replies in your own tone before you send them. Scheduled messages fire automatically at each stage of a stay — booking confirmation, pre-arrival, check-in instructions, check-out.

What's the difference between iCal sync and a Booking.com channel manager?

An iCal connection moves calendar availability and nothing else, in one direction, on a refresh schedule. Hospitable connects through Booking.com's official connectivity API, which carries reservations, messages, nightly rates, listing content, stay restrictions and reviews, and updates in both directions within seconds.

Does using a channel manager change my Booking.com commission?

No. Booking.com charges its standard commission on each reservation regardless of whether you manage the property through a channel manager, and connecting Hospitable doesn't add a fee of its own.

Your commission rate is set in your Booking.com account, as are any optional programmes that change it.
