1 Properties in Beds24
A property can be a hotel, a hostel, a B&B, a holiday house, an apartment house, a campground, etc.
A property has one or more rooms. Rooms can but do not need to represent physical rooms, they are a way of splitting your property into separately bookable sections.
If you renting your property as a whole you still need to define one room which in your case represents your complete property.
We recommend you let the Setup Wizard guide you through the set up process.
2 Use of properties and rooms
Hotels, B&B´s and inns are usually set up as one property with a number of rooms. If you have several independent lodgings e.g. apartments or villas you can still set them up as rooms if it suits your marketing strategy. Each room (which can also be an apartment, house etc) can have its own pricing and booking rules.
Making different properties means each can have it's own property booking page (if required with individual design). You can also use an agency booking page with advanced search functions (e.g. facilities, location) showing all properties.
If you are using the channel manager we advise to set the booking system up as similar as your booking channels. If your lodgings have different hotel codes for booking.com etc. then they must be setup as different properties in the system.
3 Multiple properties
The system can handle multiple properties.
You can import additional properties or create them manually.
4 Create properties
4.1 Import from Airbnb
If you have a listing on Airbnb you can import it and create a new property with a new room or add a room in a property you already have in Beds24. Click here for instructions.
4.2 Import from Booking.com
You can import your property from Booking.com to Beds24.
4.3 Import via Beds24 API
Use these instructions if you want to import your property via the Beds24 API.
4.4 Manual creation
Click on "Add Property" then go to PROPERTIES -> DESCRIPTION and complete your property information.
5 Import existing bookings
After you have created a property you will need to import upcoming bookings.
For Booking.com, Airbnb and Expedia we have the option to automatically import all upcoming bookings. We recommend to use this method because for bookings imported directly we will then be able to automatically import changes. These options are available in (SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > AIRBNB MAPPING / BOOKING.COM / EXPEDIA after you have connected the channels. Use the channel help pages for instructions.
Other bookings can be uploaded as a .csv file.
Via the .csv import can import a maximum of 100 bookings at a time.
The import is designed for upcoming bookings but you can import bookings up to one year in the past.
Carefully check which bookings will be imported. If you have upcoming bookings on Airbnb, Booking.com Expedia make sure you import them directly from the channels and do not duplicate them.
