RoomSeeker. Booking and property management for parks and resorts

RoomSeeker is a booking and property management system for parks, resorts and lodges. It handles online bookings, channel management, front desk, gate entry and finance for accommodation spread across many sites. South African National Parks (SANParks) has run on it for over 20 years.

Built for accommodation spread across many sites

RoomSeeker keeps every unit, every site and every booking channel in one real-time database, so a room sold online can’t be sold twice at reception.

For guests

Search live availability, book and pay online, then change or cancel bookings without phoning the call centre.

For your team

Run reception, gates, housekeeping and finance from one system, with an audit trail on every change.

Product features

Online bookings and channel management

Guests search live availability by region, facilities and accommodation type, and pay through a PCI-compliant portal. The same inventory feeds your online travel agent channels.

Front desk

Manage several properties grouped by region. Set rules for changes, cancellations, deposits and discounts, turn quotes into bookings, and track housekeeping and maintenance.

Gate entry and pre-arrival

An Android tablet app issues entry permits, scans QR codes and barcodes, prints receipts and keeps working offline. Guests fill in arrival details and indemnity forms before they arrive.

Finance and reporting

Payments are imported and matched to bookings automatically, with audited refunds and daily cash-ups. Reports export to PDF, Excel or Word and can be scheduled.

Who it’s for

RoomSeeker suits organisations that sell accommodation and access across several sites through several channels.

Bookings, gate permits and day visitors across every park, from one database.

  • National parks
  • Provincial reserves
  • Conservation bodies

Trusted by South African National Parks

SANParks moved its bookings for every park onto RoomSeeker to replace outdated hotel software. Real Travel and Tourism Systems (RTTS), part of the KRS group, still maintains and develops it.

Self-service bookings

Visitors manage their own bookings online, which reduced reliance on the call centre.

Compliance built in

PCI security standards, POPIA, and archiving of dormant client data.

Built for peak season

Designed to scale for the jump in bookings during peak tourist season.

Shaped around the client

Customised for SANParks with gate access, auditable payments and its own reporting.
