### "A practical all-in-one system for small properties"

July 19, 2026

5.0

A practical system for managing a small property. It covers the essential daily tasks well, and the support team is helpful when issues arise.

Pros

Simple to use and convenient for managing reservations, availability, rates, and multiple booking channels in one place.

Cons

Some features, reports, and account settings could be more flexible, intuitive, and easier to navigate.

### "Big help from Little Hotelier"

July 12, 2026

5.0

Overall, leagues ahead of the last booking system we used. The cleanliness of the engine back office is excellent. Little foibles around automated communication could probably be cleared up if I simply took time to explain issues to support, however everyone is too busy in the season to do this. Would be great to have further functionality on the phone app but that's not a dealbreaker...

Pros

Very good customer support... and even the chatbot is exceptionally intelligent. Today, \[sensitive content hidden\] nailed an issue we were having with clear, well illustrated support. They really are good. The overall service is clean and while it could be a little more simple, its well explained when you hit a barrier.

Cons

The phone app could have a little more functionality. Some glitches remain with sending confirmation emails etc

### "I am not happy"

May 8, 2025

3.0

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.

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.

### "Easy to use, value of money"

July 3, 2026

5.0

It is easy to use. Easy to integrate with accounting system Xero. Secure website. Can build own website in the same system. Good customer support.

Pros

Can log in any device where I am, change, book, cancel bookings. Daily reports revenue and money flow.

Cons

More than one file of the same guest information. I would like to log guest name and retrieve all notes.

### "Good Experience with Little Hotelier"

June 6, 2025

5.0

My experience has been good. I do wish I could do more customization on the website without being a developer.

Pros

It's easy to use and I am able to get assistance when I need it. I like having the app on my phone so I can take care of business on the go.

Cons

I wish there was a housekeeping module in Little Hotelier. I am the owner and I also clean the rooms but I also have help at times. I would like to be able to keep track of each of our rooms and when they were cleaned, what still needs to be done, maintenance needed, etc.

### "Good customer service experience"

May 28, 2025

4.0

Good service to get set up with online sessions to take you through the configuration. The pace of the sessions was very quick - ideally I would have liked a little more time to feel really confident about using the system. It did feel like the pace was driven by getting me live and starting to pay.

Pros

Like some of the additional functionality that you don't get from other PMS systems, esp the Guest Engagement features Customer service response for help has been excellent.

Cons

There are a few small but important things that I can't do that I used to be able to do in my old system. Such as setting viewing preferences for the calendar and being able to set a min age for children

### "Excellent hotel management system backed by outstanding support"

July 7, 2026

5.0

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.

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.

Hi Daniel, Thank you for such a thoughtful and detailed review!

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.

### "Sad to think about leaving"

July 8, 2026

5.0

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.

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.

July 5, 2026

5.0

My overall experience was very good. Everything was explained to me by \[sensitive content hidden\]. He seems to know the site very well

Pros

Customer Support. \[sensitive content hidden\] was very good. He knew exactly what he was doing. He was quick and helped me all the way

Cons

Nothing. Well I don't like talking to the robot. You eventually ask for to speak to an agent. So the AI is of no use to me.

So far LH is helping us to manage our OTA and OHW.

Pros

Customer Service is really accessible. \[sensitive content hidden\] the recent agent helped us in resolving all our concerns. She is a big help.

Cons

We have to book one by one for group bookings and can't do as one reservation only.

May 1, 2025

4.0

Overall, it is really good. Our last system was big and complicated and more expensive, this is more user friendly

Pros

It is simple to use, support staff are generally really good to deal with and help with all our issues

Cons

There are some things that we can't do within LH that we wish we could do. A better option for Group Booking would be handy and the emails for Group Bookings would be ideal

World of difference for a small property. Extremely helpful.

Pros

Somewhat simple to use with fast feedback from both AI support - and a support team readily available after a few minutes. \[sensitive content hidden\] was a big help. Training sessions during set up were great.

Cons

A little annoying that the same updates need to be made in the channel manager and the front desk.

### "Customer service has declined considerably over time"

August 3, 2024

2.0

I am so tired of chat staff assuming I don't know how to edit someone's email address in a booking, they even take time to explain to me how to open a booking. I've been using the product longer than they have. I know they get people who don't know how to check a computer is switched on, but I am not one of them and just wish I didn't have to keep repeating myself. I also wish they knew what "I can't edit anything at all in the booking" means rather than suggesting I edit something in the booking (yes, this is what happens each time).

Pros

Generally it has great features for a small accommodation property and has everything in one spot, easy to use and the phone app has many great features to help when out and about.

Cons

Chat staff not reading what I write. Two months back I had an issue where a direct booking created by the guest is not able to be checked in, modified or payment recorded. I am very experienced with the system but had the live chat staff explain to me how to edit a booking from scratch, ignoring almost all of what I had explained earlier. Eventually the person realised there was a problem and it was escalated. Now I have another direct booking doing the same thing (numerous others in the meantime work fine). Once again the chat person does not understand there is a problem and asked me to perform the same things as last time (e.g. delete the guest email and type it in manually, which is exactly what I had told them would not work). Back around Christmas just gone I had issues with double bookings and it took a lot of effort to get it escalated and for them to identify it was indeed their system. I knew more than the chat staff and I was assured the staff involved would have further education. I now find I have chat staff not reading my messages before responding and it is simply not good enough for the price I pay. There is a lot I love about the Little Hotelier system, but with cheaper options out there I expect better quality service.

I haven’t used everything yet so can’t speak to the cons, but so far it seems good to use. \[sensitive content hidden\] was super helpful and clear, made the onboarding process easy. As a new site, I’d definitely enjoy a lower subscription fee, but overall, great first impression.

Pros

I called to get some information as I’ve recently purchased a hotel that uses Little Hotelier. \[sensitive content hidden\] was extremely helpful and a pleasure to deal with, she answered all my questions clearly and confidently. I left the call with a much better understanding and really appreciated both her support and the system provided by Little Hotelier.

I absolutely loved using Little Hotelier. As a beginner, I found it super easy to learn and navigate without feeling overwhelmed. The interface is clean, intuitive, and just makes sense.

### "Change to Booking Engine NOT user -friendly"

November 21, 2024

1.0

Customer/client service is non-existent .

Pros

It was good for the past 10 years but things have changed.

Cons

Have been with Little Hotelier for over 10 years and have been happy with the product, but out of the blue, they have changed the front face of the Booking Engine, which the guests use. It has made it very difficult for the guest to see which accommodation unit is available and when this is important for small/Little businesses as each product you offer is often different and return guests especially like to stay in their favourite. All Little Hotelier is doing is moving all Little Hotelier clients over to the Siteminder Booking engine which is designed for large operators with style accommodation.

### "excellent but with major gigantic faults"

May 11, 2021

3.0

very good. would be great the ingenues there understand these two points and stop being blind about the, give good service without dual interests. and they will have a super app. that will make much more revenue than this stripe co-related business.

Pros

user friendly interface, integration with other siteminder softwares. and new apps... that are very useful. vote 10! but

Cons

gigantic problem. there is no way to put in evidence in the calendar with a strong color the bookings that are still unprocessed or have problems. And siteminder aims on a percentage of the business coming from STRIPE quite clearly. Conflict of interests, good service to their clients, against making more money from percentages of all Stripe sales. WRONG, morally wrong. To change system it takes months of work. So, we have to have an ultra fast glance at bookings that are unprocessed on the calendar. Track them and try to solve them. Without this we miss the unprocessed bookings. We travel in blindness unless we dedicate lots of time in the process of verifying things. And at times we get a scam of guests who never really paid a penny. Second point often stated. If they call us to book a basic function that competitors have is to book for a limited period on the calendar. After this period if client doesn't pay booking erases in automatic. the first point is fundamental. the second one also. lastly the ad-ons for the bistro and drinks, is not so organic. but perhaps we just didn't have time to try to implement it.

Reason for choosing Little Hotelier

clear vision and push and drop management of calendar

Hi Stefano, Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. It's great to hear that you find Little Hotelier excellent with a user-friendly interface, and are enjoying our huge range of connections and app integrations. With regards the problems you are having with payments, there is no way for the system to be able to track status of a payment unless connected to a gateway so if you are manually taking cash or credit card payments we do not have the data from the merchant to validate success/failure of payments. Our team is continuously working to improve our products and offer a seamless experience for our customers and we will take your comments on the calendar and an add-on for bistro and drinks into consideration. Thank you very much for the feedback. We loved hearing your thoughts and our team are reading this for insight! Warmest, Jessica

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

June 4, 2022

3.0

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

### "Difficult set-up-Good value after that"

May 14, 2021

4.0

Initially it was horrible and we began looking for alternatives. Over the past 18 months we have come to rely on it as a foundational part of our success.

Pros

LH covers 90% of the tasks we need to complete in an effort to run the hotel. It is stable and reliable. It is very affordable.

Cons

Set-up was not intuitive and initially customer service support ineffective. Subsequent to launch we found the development team does not talk to the sales/customer support team so developers roll out beta versions of enhancements before the bugs are worked out and without telling customers of the changes. Initially I found the customer support team poorly trained with limited communication skills. I sensed they were also frustrated with their inability to satisfy customer needs. in the past 18 months I have not had to lean on customer service as frequently and when I do, the service is good.

Reason for choosing Little Hotelier

Cost.
