About Little Hotelier
Little Hotelier is a cloud-based property and reservation management solution designed primarily for small properties such as B&Bs (bed & breakfasts), guesthouses, inns, lodges, and small hotels. The solution helps accommodation providers manage their front desk operations, accept online reservations and manage property visibility across multiple booking sites such as Airbnb and Google Hotel Ads.
Little Hotelier updates booking rates and room availability across various channels once a reservation is confirmed and automatically shares booking details with both the guests and property managers via email and text messages. The solution offers pre-built templates to help property managers design customized websites that can accept reservations online or via the property’s Facebook page. Hotel managers can also add images, videos, banners, and property descriptions to the website page. The inbuilt reservation calendar gives visibility on room availability and the number of bookings. The activity dashboard tracks the performance of property listing across various channels and helps in managing other front desk activities from a single point. Little Hotelier lets property managers choose from a variety of templates to send guests pre-arrival and post-departure emails along with the invoice copy. It also has a mobile app to manage on-the-go, and an integrated payments capability to process credit card payments seamlessly.
The solution currently supports more than 80 local currencies and languages and automatically adjusts booking dates across multiple time zones for managing international bookings. Property managers can also run ad-hoc reports, analyze their channel performance, monitor occupancy rate, and track payments. Currently, Little Hotelier serves small and midsized property owners across North America, Asia, Auspac, Europe, and Africa.

We wish that LH doesn't make the software too sophisticated because it wouldn't help.
We wish that LH doesn't make the software too sophisticated because it wouldn't help.
Pros
- The service for setting up this software was outstanding. We came from an other nonfunctional very expensive software solution and there was no problem for the customer service to take the database over to the LH system. It is very easy to handle.
Cons
There are still some little software improvements to do. Invoicing to travel agents, direct email from the system to guest about the booking and changes they make along the way. Mapping could be easier.
Too many nonsense emails from the support.

We love LH and have had several chances to change providers. With the exception of the two issues above, we would not change.
Pros
It's easy to use, the reports are on the spot, and the online interface (booking button) is top-notch. Customer service is some of the best I have experienced.
Cons
I do not like that I cannot combine duplicate guest records. Every time a reservation is made and there is something as simple as a changed "-" or period, a new customer record is made and the previous reservations tied to the first customer record are not coupled. This is a big time-waster for me, especially when I am making reservations. Having to thumb through multiple records when I have multiple customers who come in from Mexico and El Paso who have the same first and last names.
The final thing that we need is the ability to blacklist a customer record. There are customers who have caused damages, etc. who we do not want back and we currently have no way to quickly search this, especially with multiple records from the same customer. We need to have the online system check our database, look for a blacklist selection, and refuse the reservation and have them call the office, then we can decide to rent to them or charge cleaning/damage fees or deposits at booking.

The only reason I wouldn't recco it now is because of the lack of tech support on the weekends. There's no excuse for the NO HELP on weekends. That's when we are the busiest and it's frustrating being hung out to dry with no help. What do you mean...your answering service says we are closed for the weekend....that's horrible to do to your customers who count on you to keep their balls in the air...I need to charge cards and get information and check for availability...Right now I can't stand this program.
Pros
I'm not saying anything above the software. I've read other peoples' comments and I am agreeing with them that it could be better. For me having 4 rooms and a private suite of 2 rooms...which means 5 total...and being the first online reservation program that I've ever used I was pleased...but no help on weekends? What's that about. That's nonsense. We in the wine country mostly have weekend visitors and that's when I might have a problem. I cannot sign in. I type in the name...then the password and enter and it acts like it's going to load and then reverts back to sign in again...I need to use my computer for this because the app doesn't provide the same capabilities. Changes cannot be made using the phone app. It's too small on my phone. It doesn't print out the same either. I can't get the cc# using the phone app. Can you? If anybody can provide help please let me know because I'm getting mad!
Cons
I haven't been able to access the program from my computer for three or so weeks. They've taken away the person who used to manage my account and she was a Gem. Return call right after her morning meetings...never let me hang. Even called me one time on a weekend. I thought can you imagine that....but not even a tech available on a weekend..my gosh...I can't use a program without assistance when I need it...could me once in a year but when you need help with running your business that is when you need it. Frustrated here in Plymouth, CA.

Pros
I cannot double book a room and customer service is excellent very patient even with a non computer geek like me
Cons
It tends to ask for the password every other day
Response from Little Hotelier
Hi Christine,
Thank you very much for your feedback. We are so glad to hear our support team is doing their best to assist you.
For your security and that of your guest's data, we have a multi-factor authentication process that ensures your password is updated every 90 days. This is common best practice in any online system.
If you haven't updated your password at the 90 day point, it will prompt you to reset, which is easily done yourself in seconds. This may be why it's asking for a password. Once you reset it, there should be no issues moving forward.
If this isn't the case, please do reach out to our helpful support team who will help figure out this issue quickly.
Thank you again for working with us, Christine.
Warmest, Jessica
