What is a Hotel Reservation Form?

A hotel reservation form enables direct bookings, bypassing OTA commissions of 15-25%. Direct reservations also provide complete guest data for personalized service and marketing.

This form captures essential booking information: dates, room type, guest count, and special requests. Integration with your property management system streamlines check-in and room assignment.

Direct booking forms also enable upselling opportunities - add fields for room upgrades, breakfast packages, or airport transfers to increase revenue per booking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q

How do I confirm availability before accepting?

Treat form submissions as reservation requests. Check availability in your PMS, then send confirmation or alternative dates. Make clear on the form that submission is a request pending confirmation.

Should I collect payment through the form?

For guarantee, collect credit card details or deposit via Stripe integration. Alternatively, request card upon confirmation. Be clear about cancellation policy in form.

Q

How do I compete with OTA visibility?

Offer direct booking incentives: best rate guarantee, free upgrade, late checkout. Promote direct booking link on Google My Business, social media, and in follow-up emails to OTA guests.
