### "Good value for m but still much to do"

December 3, 2018

4.0

Pros

As Im using this program almost 2 years, I can say that for small accommodations like it is GH Pasha\*\*\*, can be more then sutisfied. We could connect with almost every OTAs that we need and very simple program to use. Maybe some video of how to use would be great

Cons

There are some features that need to be finished and improved like types of discount that do not work properly, oldfashioned web site templates and some features connected with it like sharing on social networks discount does not work or some link that will lead on Book NOW point. Also up to my opinion is deffenetly metter that HR will suggest you the best OTAs for your business as well as some other features that will lead to better sutisfying customer needs and you have them a lot ;)... just let them know better.

### "Avoid at all costs. No customer Service. It will keep overbook your property."

October 3, 2022

1.0

I paid the bought the HotelRunner Channel Manager for 2 years. I was duped in by over 50% discount offered by them. Now I regret that I should have never gone for it. We have repeatedly over booked by Channel Manager, contacted them on all the occasion. We received reply but after 24 to 48 hours latter. They do not have customer service. You can only contact them though Email only. No online chat, no phone number to call only through email. I requested them several occasions to have an online session to explain how we keep the updated inventory but no chance. I even told them that if they do not arrange an online session, I will have no option but to leave them....and you know what- no reply. At last I have no option but to leave them negative feedback here and leave them at half of the contract and I am going for somebody else. I have contacted the guy called \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] at Hotelunner, and always received a standard reply. Avoid them at all costs if you can.

Pros

nothing at all...I bought it for 2 years and now leaving them after using them for a year. Happy to leave my one year subscription to them....

Cons

i bought it for 2 years and now leaving them after using them 1 year. They would not refund my money....

### "User Friendly Channel Manager & A Modern Reservation Module"

April 24, 2023

5.0

Pros

It has a modernized and easy-to-use interface. With fast and accurate updates, we can send our prices to all agencies from a single page with just just one click. Thanks to the mobile application, it is very convenient that we can update our availability even when we are out of the hotel. The reservation module they have placed on our website has a very elegant design and is placed free of charge without any extra commission.

Cons

Some functions in property management system should be improved. But whenever we give our feedbacks, they make new upgrades and add some new functions in an acceptable time.

### "Nobody can help you if you live on the East Coast. "

February 8, 2022

1.0

Poor, terrible, you have to guess how everything works and when you have an issue nobody respond because they are in other time zone.

Pros

I thought was good but its a nightmare to get some one to help you

Cons

customer service is bad is almost impossible to find somebody to help you and when they do they just send a link and you have to be on you own!

Hi Natalia, Customer support is something we pride ourselves on and are very upset to hear about your experience. Our Loyalty Manager, Esra wanted to personally reach out to you about this situation, but there was not enough information provided. If there is anyway you can get back to our request with additional information, that would be great. We would love to see where things may have went wrong and how we can make things right again.

Above all, as every successful business, best thing with Hotelrunner is, people. Caring, focused and intelligent employees they have! Special thanks to the support team for their endless support!

It can sometimes be puzzling to navigate between different pages and some options can be a little bit hard to getting used to.

### "A Hotel Runner With May Figures"

April 9, 2018

4.0

Hotel management software

Pros

HotelRunner has many great figures such as channel managers, payment integration and many more integrations.

Cons

For a new customer, it is difficult to get a full estimation of the total price for signing up with HotelRunner. The price structure is based on modules which you can buy.

March 11, 2019

They have really helped us sell our rooms with the Turkish channels that are free to us in their system.

Pros

I love their support chat system which is so easy in English (I am based in Turkey, so that is a wonderful plus). I love the fact that linkage to the channels is fast and under my control. I also love their app which allows me to update availability at any time.

Cons

I wish there was a page where I could see availiability for all rooms over the month.

### "a complete waste of time"

May 16, 2017

1.0

Pros

nothing, this did not do anything that is advertised, or that they specifically told me that they could do

Cons

Hotel runner has been a HUGE waste of time for me. I asked if I could just manage availability and you said yes (below) You can choose to manage your availabilities only via HotelRunner, all you need to do is select accordingly during OTA integration. But also we can adjust to each channel the rates you are sending accordingly as well. But then that wouldn't work My minimum nights stay from wix did not transfer, and because of that we have received a number of reservations for less than our minimum night stay. The support has been very slow or nonexistent, which I expressed concern about (given the time difference). I tried to ask all of the questions I could (issues I had in the past) and basically, I spent a week trying to set this up, waiting for support, reblocking and changing reservations for nothing.

March 1, 2021

2.0

Pros

It's easy to use - initially. It also ties in to Wix, who I use to manage my website.

Cons

Customer support is in Europe and almost non-existent. When they do respond, they are of little to no help. They do not tie well into booking.com, even though they claim to. Almost no benefit in using them.
