However, a partnership between one of the more popular booking sites and an independent booking company meant that it was possible for smaller and independent hotels are able to list their rooms for bookings.

Hotels are able to do this using the 2-way interface from Anand Systems. Customers are able to book their own rooms on these websites, but the hotel is still able to take their own reservations and have full control over the rooms that are available on the websites.

Inventories on the websites and on the hotel’s system will update in real time, so there is no chance that the hotel will get overbooked. A hotel could only give a website access to 10 rooms, at first and when those rooms are sold out, on certain dates, they will add more.

Hotel owners or managers have full control over the cost of the rooms as well. They can offer them at a reduced price as an incentive for the website, or they can have special offers in slow periods. In the same instance, they can also increase the price if they know that there is an event in the area on certain days. A lot of hotels do this.

A spokesperson for Anand Systems added, “We are proud of our software and we are delighted that it has been chosen by independent hotels and some smaller chains so that they can allow their rooms to be booked on popular travel websites. We have over 5000 clients that already use our software and we are happy that even more clients are using our software in their hotels.”

At the moment, Anand Systems are working on an update to one of their programs. Once that is completed, they will be rolling it out to all of their customers remotely as a digital download.

Anand Systems is a software company that was developed in 1998. They have their headquarters in California and in the beginning they only had their systems installed in 4 hotels in the San Francisco area. The company has a very good reputation in the hotel industry and they are very proud of their system. You can visit their website at http://www.anandsystems.com
