Unified Hospitality Platform for Independent Hotels and Groups
Cloudbeds is a unified hospitality platform serving over 20,000 properties across 150+ countries. Founded in 2012, the platform brings property management, channel management, booking engine, revenue management, and guest experience tools into a connected system designed for independent hotels, hostels, vacation rentals, and hotel groups.
Property Management System
The property management system handles reservations, front desk operations, room assignments, billing, and reporting. The interface supports multi-property management and provides staff with a consolidated view of daily operations across all locations.
Channel Manager with 300+ Connections
Cloudbeds' built-in channel manager connects to over 300 distribution channels including Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, and regional OTAs. Rates and availability sync automatically, reducing manual updates and the risk of overbookings.
Booking Engine and Direct Distribution
A customizable booking engine allows properties to accept commission-free direct reservations through their own website. The engine supports promotional rates, package deals, and upsell options at the time of booking.
Revenue Management and Pricing Intelligence
Cloudbeds includes an AI-powered pricing intelligence engine that analyzes market data and recommends rate adjustments. The tool helps properties optimize occupancy and revenue management without requiring a dedicated revenue manager.
Guest Experience and Contactless Tools
The platform includes Whistle for Cloudbeds, a messaging tool that centralizes guest communications across SMS, email, and chat. Contactless check-in, digital registration cards, and automated pre-arrival messaging support modern guest experience workflows.
Integrations and Open API
Cloudbeds offers a marketplace of 300+ integrations covering point-of-sale systems, accounting software, payment gateways, and business intelligence tools. An open API allows custom connections for larger operators with specific technical requirements.
