Little Hotelier

Little Hotelier: Property Management System for Small Accommodations

Little Hotelier is a property management system developed by SiteMinder, one of the world's leading hotel technology companies, and purpose-built for small accommodation providers. It is designed for properties that typically have fewer than 30 rooms, including bed and breakfasts, guesthouses, small independent hotels, and boutique inns.

All-in-One Platform for Small Properties

Little Hotelier combines the core tools a small property needs into a single, accessible platform. Rather than requiring separate subscriptions for a PMS, booking engine, and channel manager, operators get all three in one product. This consolidated approach reduces both cost and the complexity of managing multiple technology vendors.

Reservations and Front Desk Management

The system provides straightforward reservations management with a visual room calendar, guest profile storage, and basic reporting. Front desk workflows are kept simple and intuitive, reflecting the reality that most small property owners are also the ones handling day-to-day operations.

Channel Manager and OTA Connectivity

Little Hotelier's integrated channel manager connects properties to major OTAs including Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, and others. Real-time availability and rate synchronization across channels helps small operators avoid double bookings without requiring manual updates to each platform separately.

Direct Booking Engine

The platform includes a direct booking engine that can be embedded into the property's website, allowing guests to book without paying OTA commission. For small operators where every booking matters, reducing commission costs through direct reservations can have a meaningful impact on profitability.

Mobile App for On-the-Go Management

Little Hotelier provides a mobile app that allows property owners and managers to view reservations, check in guests, and monitor availability from their phone. This is particularly valuable for owner-operators who are frequently away from a fixed desk.

Who It Is For

Little Hotelier is designed specifically for the smallest segment of the accommodation market. It is best matched to owner-operated B&Bs, guesthouses, and small independent hotels that need a simple, affordable hotel software solution with reliable OTA connectivity, backed by the infrastructure and support of SiteMinder.
