Hotel website hosting

Hotel website hosting where the channel manager always wins.

Your rates and availability are not really yours — they arrive from a channel manager syncing against Booking.com and the rest, and your site has to accept those writes while people are mid-booking.

Everything a hotel booking flow asks of a host.

The site is the smallest part of the system. It sits between a channel manager, a payment gateway and a guest, and has to stay consistent with all three.

Channel-manager writes that always land

Rate and availability pushes arrive at an endpoint that must never be cached, challenged as a bot or rate-limited. Those URLs are excluded from all three so a sync is never silently dropped.

Excluded from cachePartner IPs allowed

Availability that reflects the last sync

Room availability is looked up live and cached in memory for seconds rather than minutes, so a room sold on another channel stops being offered here almost immediately.

RedisShort TTL

Rate updates that cannot collide

A rate push arriving while a guest is at checkout is a write and a read against the same rows. Those are serialised so the guest pays the price they were quoted.

Fast from the markets you sell to

Guests book from other countries, often on hotel wifi. Static pages and imagery serve from the edge so the gallery is not the reason someone leaves.

Backups that include the bookings

Reservations, guests and rates in the same nightly snapshot, replicated off the origin and restorable without asking anyone to rebook.

Operations

Watch the sync, not the server.

A hotel site fails commercially before it fails technically: the sync stopped and you kept selling a room that was already gone.

Performance

Peak season loads like low season.

Availability cost rises with occupancy and with how many channels are pushing at once, which means your busiest week is your slowest one unless the lookups are in memory.

Configuration

What we change for a hotel site

These differ from a standard booking site on the same plan, because the inventory is being written by somebody else's system while your guests are reading it.

SettingWhat we doWhy
Channel-manager endpointsExcluded from page cache, bot challenges and rate limiting; partner ranges allowedA channel manager pushes rate and availability updates on its own schedule and treats a challenge or a throttle as a failed sync, so the site keeps selling inventory that was sold somewhere else hours ago.
Availability cache TTLHeld in Redis with a lifetime measured in seconds rather than minutesRooms are sold simultaneously across several channels, so a cache lifetime tuned for a normal site is long enough to take a booking for a room that no longer exists.
Rate write serialisationRate pushes and checkout reads serialised against the same rowsA rate update arriving mid-checkout otherwise changes the price between the quote and the charge, which is a chargeback rather than a rounding difference.
Media deliveryRoom galleries served from the edge with range requestsHotel sites are photography-led and booked from other countries, so the images are both the largest payload and the thing the buying decision is actually made on.
Pending reservation windowUnconfirmed reservations released on a fixed system cron scheduleAn abandoned checkout holds a real room out of sale, and under wp-cron the release waits for the next visitor — which in the small hours is exactly when nobody arrives to trigger it.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Why does my site still show rooms that are already booked?
Almost always the availability cache is living too long, or a channel-manager push was dropped. We keep that lookup in Redis with a short lifetime and exclude the sync endpoint from caching and rate limiting.
Will a channel manager sync be blocked as bot traffic?
Not here. Those endpoints are excluded from bot challenges and rate limiting and the partner's ranges are allowed, because a challenged push is recorded as a failed sync on their side and simply never retried in time.
What happens if a rate changes while a guest is checking out?
The push and the checkout read are serialised against the same rows, so the guest is charged the price they were quoted. Without that, the two interleave and the difference becomes a chargeback.
Do you work with our existing booking engine?
Yes. The tuning targets uncached availability, partner write endpoints and serialised rate updates, which every booking engine needs regardless of which one the hotel has.
Are reservations included in the backup?
Yes — reservations, guests and rates live in the database, so they are in the same nightly snapshot as the site and come back together in a restore.

Run a hotel site that never sells the same room twice.
