Guesthouse software that answers guests for you

In a guesthouse, one person handles late-night messages, bookings on several channels and check-in. Hostlio Pro takes load off that person.

What is guesthouse software?

Guesthouse software lets small properties with 1 to 10 rooms manage reservations, availability and guest communication in one place. Hostlio Pro adds Lio, an AI assistant that answers guest questions 24/7 in more than 30 languages. The Starter plan costs $49 a month for properties with up to 10 rooms.

What do guesthouses struggle with most?

Night messages

Late check-in, parking and breakfast questions arrive at midnight. Lio answers in the guest's language and you read a summary in the morning.

Several channels

Selling the same room on Booking.com and Airbnb causes double bookings. The channel manager syncs availability instantly.

ID and registration

Typing guest details at the desk takes time. Online check-in collects them before arrival.

Tight budget

Commission-based software gets pricier as occupancy grows. Hostlio Pro is a flat monthly fee.

Which plan fits?

For most guesthouses the Starter plan is enough: up to 10 rooms, 1,000 AI messages a month and WhatsApp AI messaging. Choose Pro if you also want online check-in and Lio handling OTA inbox messages (Booking.com, Airbnb, Expedia).
