- Total reviews: 237

### Secondary ratings

- Ease of use: 4.1/5
- Customer support: 4.0/5
- Value for money: 3.9/5

- 4 stars: 51 reviews (22%)
- 3 stars: 22 reviews (9%)
- 2 stars: 16 reviews (7%)
- 1 star: 20 reviews (8%)

### Most mentioned pros

- Little Hotelier has been a reliable system for managing our hotel, reservations and channel distribution.
- It combines everything we need — from managing bookings across platforms to handling direct reservations and payments — all in one place.
- I also appreciate how the platform connects seamlessly with multiple OTAs, which simplifies rate and availability management once everything is properly set up.

### Most mentioned cons

- I can no longer believe that this is simply administrative error; it's hard to belive there are companies that still exist with this model of overcharging, promising refunds to keep a customer (even providing an updated contract with the refund amount) and then never promising it or responding.
- I sent mutiple messages to the sales agent asking about functionality and never received responses. Despite them sending me requests to activate the software, which I never did, they automatically started charging my card.
- I don't know if the team has hollowed out and SiteMinder is no longer investing anything into LH, but it is just bad.

### Great experience with [sensitive content hidden]

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Anna C.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Hospitality
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: April 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

My experience with Little Hotelier has been positive overall. While I faced challenges understanding why my rates weren’t displaying correctly on Booking.com, the support—especially from [sensitive content hidden]—was excellent. Once the issue was resolved, the platform proved efficient for managing availability and rates across channels.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

What I liked most about Little Hotelier was the personalized support I received when I encountered an issue with my Booking.com rates not displaying correctly. Although it wasn’t easy for me to understand what was causing the problem, [sensitive content hidden] from the support team was incredibly helpful and patient. She guided me step by step until the issue was resolved. I also appreciate how the platform connects seamlessly with multiple OTAs, which simplifies rate and availability management once everything is properly set up.

#### Cons

The platform is not always intuitive, especially when troubleshooting rate issues. It took me a while to understand where the problem was and how it was affecting my Booking.com listings. Without [sensitive content hidden]’s help, I wouldn’t have been able to resolve it on my own. Some features could benefit from clearer explanations or built-in guidance.

#### Reasons for choosing Little Hotelier

I compared it with Cloudbeds and chose Little Hotelier because it felt more intuitive, was specifically designed for small properties, and offered strong OTA connectivity with responsive support.

### I am not happy

- Overall rating: 3/5
- Reviewer: Alessandra G.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Hospitality

- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

The people answering the support tab are 99% very nice. I have talked to couple of them, and I always found nice, polite and competent people. Those who had to help with installation, however, were totally inexistent. They convice you to buy it and then they do not follow up at all. They make you feel inadequate as if you are not computer literate you can die! they make you download give you few hints and you need figure it out yourself. We had no support on how to fix rates, how to understand things and how to continue. We basically had to figure out all by ourselves.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 2/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

I only like the fact that has an APP linked to it and that is relatively cheap.

#### Cons

I honestly thought it was more useful. there are a lot of things which are not flexible. there is no way of highlighting if a reservation is provisional or confirmed. there is no difference in color between a direct booking, an agent or an OTA. No reminder for payments.

#### Reasons for choosing Little Hotelier

I thought it was easy and I liked the first impression in the presentation done by the seller (who then disappeared together with the lady who should have helped us installing all)

#### Vendor response

Hi Alessandra, We deeply apologise for the frustration and disappointment you've experienced. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We hear and understand your concerns regarding your initial onboarding session and want to ensure you receive the support you need. To address this, a senior member of our onboarding team has reached out to you and scheduled a training session for you on Thursday 22/05/2025. In the meantime, if there’s anything else we can assist you with, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Warm regards, Zidane Doshi

### Excellent hotel management system backed by outstanding support

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Daniel G.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Hospitality
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: July 2026
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

We have been using Little Hotelier for several years to manage our hotel and distribute inventory across multiple OTAs. Overall, the system has been stable and dependable. During a recent reorganization of our Agoda rate plans I unintentionally created a complex mapping situation involving historical rate plans. The Little Hotelier support team spent considerable time investigating the issue with me, coordinated the technical details, reviewed XML logs and helped narrow down the root cause.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Little Hotelier has been a reliable system for managing our hotel, reservations and channel distribution. The interface is straightforward, and once everything is configured correctly it works very well.

#### Cons

For day-to-day operation the system is straightforward, but advanced configuration changes require careful planning and a good understanding of how channel mappings work.

#### Vendor response

Hi Daniel, Thank you for such a thoughtful and detailed review! We're really glad to hear that Little Hotelier has been a stable and dependable system for managing your hotel and channel distribution over the years. We also appreciate you sharing the experience with the Agoda rate plan reorganisation — it's a great example of the kind of complex, behind-the-scenes work our support team genuinely enjoys digging into. We'll pass on your kind words to the team involved. Your feedback on advanced configuration is also well noted, and we'll make sure it's shared with the right teams. If you ever need a hand with anything, we're always happy to help! Warm regards, Zidane D.

### Random thoughts after five years of use

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Stuart M.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Hospitality
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I usually enjoy it, and find it efficient. There are some parts that seem needlessly proscriptive, such as the minimum character requirement for completing this field for example!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Having clear visibility of the booking calendar. Immediate processing of direct bookings as they are made. Ease of creating and maintaining our website, and of converting bookings from visitors to this website. Helpful humans on the chat screens.

#### Cons

There are some screens and data fields in some of the applications which do not actually work or flow into others. This means I have to find the "real" way to change room rates, etc. I also find the bot unhelpful. It suggests a number of ways of doing things (eg, tonight, it gave a list of options for why the way it suggested changing MFA was leading me to an error screen rather than allowing the MFA change. I followed each of these many options, including clearing the history cache, changing passwords, moving to a different secure network, etc before asking for a human - and then I was able to change the MFA within a few minutes). The app continues to have some operational issues, making it less useful than it could be and should be. If it worked and I trusted it, I would use it in preference to the desktop version. Setup of the "Extra Items" section seems to assume these items are large, so does not easily allow for the sale of smaller items such as gift cards, postcards and other products that might usually not be sold for whole dollar figures. Removal of the option not to charge GST in this section was not useful.

#### Reasons for choosing Little Hotelier

It seemed more integrated across the system, logical, and provided a good template for our website (Canvas). [Note I do not recall the exact name of the others I considered at the time. I have chosen what seems like an unlikely one from the list of options to pass the field above]

#### Vendor response

Hi Stuart, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re really glad to hear that you’ve found value in the booking calendar visibility, direct booking processing, and ease of maintaining your website. It’s also great to know our support team on live chat has been helpful when you needed them. We truly appreciate your insights on the platform’s functionality. We've shared your comments with the relevant teams as we continue to improve. If there's anything more we can assist you with, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Warm regards, Zidane

### Sad to think about leaving

Good but as an ex-IT consultant, I just feel that the product development that I have witnessed over the years has been pretty uninspiring to the point where just about every other provider has a richer feature set for similar cost.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 2/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 2/5

#### Pros

Reliable, good channel manager, dont think we have had a double booking in 10 years. excellent customer support

#### Cons

Lack of integrations, and the big one, can only list our prices of the free Google Hotels listing by paying 16% via demand plus, unfortunately we are investing time and money into our website and social media to drive direct bookings and there is little point if we pay more for them than booking.com, I have no problem with the 3% for hotel ads, I could live with 7.5% for demand plus because of my loyalty to LH however at 16% this will almost certainly mean we will terminate a long and pretty happy relationship at the end of the season.

⭐ Overall Experience with Little Hotelier As the owner of a small, family-run hotel, Little Hotelier has been a big help in simplifying our day-to-day operations. It combines everything we need — from managing bookings across platforms to handling direct reservations and payments — all in one place. The interface is user-friendly, and once everything is set up, it really saves time and helps prevent double bookings. I especially like how easy it is to manage availability and pricing across multiple OTAs. The booking engine with promo codes is a great feature for encouraging direct bookings. There were a few challenges at the beginning, especially during setup and learning how to navigate all the tools. Some features feel a bit limited, and it can get a bit pricey if you're just starting out. But overall, the platform is reliable and well-suited for small properties like ours. I’d recommend it to other small hotel owners who want a simple, all-in-one solution without hiring extra staff or tech help.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

All-in-One Simplicity It combines a front desk, channel manager, and booking engine all in one place — without needing separate tools. Great for saving time and avoiding double bookings.

#### Cons

Price Can Be High for Small Properties For very small guesthouses or B&Bs, the monthly fee feels a bit steep — especially if you're not getting a high volume of direct bookings yet.

#### Vendor response

Hi Mariami, Thank you for taking the time to share such a wonderful feedback. We're pleased to hear that Little Hotelier has helped simplify your daily operations and made it easier to manage bookings across multiple platforms. It’s great to know that features have been valuable for your property. Feedback like this is incredibly helpful as we continue improving the platform to better serve businesses like yours. If there's ever anything we can support you with, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help and truly value having you with us. Warm regards, Zidane Doshi

None. Little hotelier is the best channel manager. I can't find any problems. If I do, their customer care is available anytime.

### Tech help is not available on weekends? I haven't been able to log in for a few weeks. That's bad!

- Overall rating: 3/5

- Company size: 2-10 employees

- Reviewed: August 2017
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

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.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 1/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### 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.

#### Vendor response

### I gave them 5 stars at first... After a few years, I give them 2 stars now

- Overall rating: 2/5
- Reviewer: Ricardo C.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Hospitality
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: November 2022
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

It has its ups and downs, we were extremely happy with the software because of its simplicity. But their current approach to have exclusivity over processing payment and no integration with stripe (or any other processing payments) has left us extremely disappointed . It was a BIG let down

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 2/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The software is easy to use, very intuitive, easy for our onsite staff and reservations team. Easy display, and easy booking platform

#### Cons

After several years using the software, we were happy with the software.. It had its issues (reports and very basic features) but their simplicity was what made us choose them. That and their integration with Stripe which allow us to take payments at time of booking and direct payments from clients on site. We have been with stripe for over 15 years.... Little HOtelier, decided a few years later that they wanted to have their own payment processing system... which meant we had to ditch Stripe... However, tLittle HOtelier Payemnt system was NOT available for our country, so we were offered to just simply take payments by hand or using a third party platform. This has been a nightmare, as we need to collect payment from future guests using a third party system (stripe), sending invoices separately, managing all these invoices, and now onsite payment manually as well.We are not against their payment system, we are upset they gave us absolutely NO alternative or option. We will be ditching the software as it does not meet the most essential part of a booking system: payment processing.

#### Reasons for choosing Little Hotelier

simplicity, easy to use

### Good software for small to medium AIRBnBs using phone to manage property.

Good software if you need to manage your bookings on the go. Phone App provided is Simple in use and allows to manage new reservations in the system. Apart of that their offer is just ok. I had a really bad experience where at the end of our financial year their financial reporting didnt work for 3 consecutive weeks until problem was resolved. That was a huge minus and a breaking point for us to change PMS.

#### Pros

Phone App - It’s best the best what LittleHotellier offers.

#### Cons

Customer service. Very average agents in terms of their knowladge of the software. Booking Engine without many customisation options

#### Reasons for switching to Little Hotelier

Poor customer service.
