As the business thrives, hotels expand and continue to grow their properties instate or outstate. Either way, it is a challenging task to manage multiple properties, especially small hotels with limited resources.
Managing the distribution of resources, handling complaints, and ensuring smooth operations are some of the issues that hotels face when they have multiple properties. A Property Management System (PMS) software can not only manage routine operations but also increase a hotel’s revenue with the available resources.
AirHost HMS will allow hotels to manage multiple properties efficiently and build a trustworthy brand.
AirHost HMS provides manageable and easily accessed tasks on a single dashboard. It is a single platform that provides the tools and flexibility to manage all business operations. Hotels can choose to either run the operations fully unmanned or partially automated based on their choice. The dashboard displays the following features.
Centralized reservation management – A single place to manage reservations of multiple properties to ensure smoothness in operations. Hotels have to manage multiple things like bookings, room availability, cleaning calendar, and many more. It is easy to access all the functions from a single place rather than having a different application for each function.
One booking engine – A web engine to manage the bookings of multiple properties at a single location. All the bookings for multiple properties can be accessed under a single account. This not only provides ease of accessibility but also boosts staff productivity.
Tasks provision – Assigning hotel staff across different properties with specific functions or privileges to avoid confusion at the last minute. Prior task assignment improves staff productivity.
Currency settlement – Supports different currencies based on the location. This makes the transactions a lot easier avoiding the hassle for customers to exchange it somewhere else. This function makes the operation more compatible.

With the help of AirHost HMS, the grand residence can manage all its facilities across a board which helps streamline operations at the front desk. Manual tasks such as messaging guests, cleaning schedules, and managing reservations can be overtaken by automated messaging, digital cleaning calendars, and the booking engine in AirHost PMS.
It is a win-win situation for hotels with multiple properties to use a management system that reduces the need for manual tasks. And finally, it also optimizes the use of resources and increases revenue.
