Features
Key Features
Everything you need day to day — designed by people who know the industry.
Embeddable booking widget
Drop one script tag into any hotel website — no iframe, works with the site's existing design and stays responsive on mobile.
Live availability calendar
A real-time room and price calendar synced from Hydra PMS every 5 minutes, so guests never see a room that's already gone.
OTP SimplePay payments
Hungary's trusted payment gateway, settling natively in HUF, with hold, deposit, full-charge, or bank-transfer policies per rate code.
Dynamic yield pricing
Occupancy-based pricing tiers layer automatically on top of whatever the PMS pushes, dashboard-overridable at any time.
Promo codes
Percentage or fixed discounts with minimum-stay rules, date-validity windows, and race-safe usage caps.
Waitlist & re-match
When a search comes back sold out, guests can join a waitlist and get an automatic email the moment a room frees up.
Quote requests
A separate lightweight widget for groups and flexible dates — the guest submits a request, staff respond with a real offer.
Custom domain
Guest-facing links — confirmation emails, payment redirects, booking management — run on the hotel's own domain instead of a shared platform URL.
GDPR self-service
Guests can export or request deletion of their own booking data directly, without contacting the hotel.
Hotel dashboard
Manage bookings, quotes, promo codes, room content, and guest requests from one staff dashboard, separate from PMS login.
Two-way PMS sync
Rate codes, availability, and booking confirmations sync automatically between the widget and Hydra PMS, in both directions.
Multilingual widget
English, German, and Hungarian — auto-detected from the page or set explicitly, with a guest-facing switcher.
Guest self-service
Guests view their booking status, cancel, retry a failed payment, add extras, or download an .ics calendar file — no account needed.
