The traveller and the holiday maker increasingly use the
Internet to look for accommodation both in the search for 'a better
deal' and also to have access to information not found in brochures or
phone books.
We have investigated other
Accommodation Booking systems and Availability systems and feel them all to be lacking in some respect. The 'popular' ones
tend to cater for the larger establishments needing to fill several
rooms on a 'standby rate'. We believe there is a place for these but have
yet to find an affordable system which meets the needs of the Bed &
Breakfast/ Self-Catering/ Hotel/ Motel owner who cannot be on call 24
hrs a day and who cannot afford the time to constantly check the
Internet or Email to stay 'up to date' with the bookings made by other
agencies.
Some systems require the public to find your accommodation via their
site. If the public does not use/ know of their site - how can
they find you to make a booking? Both Night Porter

Some owners prefer only
to make bookings via direct contact with the guest. Night Porter
Availability Check allows this.

Some systems require the owner to 'lock
in' their rates etc which cannot be changed for short or long-term
special deals: neither do they cater for Minimum Stay requirements which
differ with the time of year. Night Porter Does! You are 'in control'.
We feel there is a place for a
user-friendly programme designed to meet the needs of most holiday accommodation
houses at an affordable price. With our combined experience of the accommodation
industry from both a Booking Agent's and Owner's viewpoint, we believe
that Night Porter meets these requirements.
