Reservations and housekeeping connected
Hotel PMS and front desk
Hotel PMS for bookings, arrivals and everyday operations.
Zotel is a hotel property management system (PMS) that brings reservations, guest records, check-in, check-out and room status into one place. It connects front-desk work with housekeeping, channel management and direct bookings.
AI-assisted guest detail capture
Mobile access and guest follow-up workflows
Daily hotel operations
One reservation record through the guest’s stay.
A PMS handles what happens inside the hotel. Zotel links that operational view with the booking channels that bring guests in, so reception can work from the reservation rather than a separate list.

Your questions
Hotel PMS and front desk: common questions
How does AI help with guest check-in?
Smart Upload uses AI to extract details from a guest’s identity document and pre-fill the guest form. Staff review and edit those details before submitting. Elite also includes web self check-in, so guests can provide details before arrival.
Can reception see whether a room is ready without checking a separate housekeeping list?
Zotel’s PMS includes housekeeping status alongside hotel operations, so the team can track room readiness in the same system. Authorized staff update statuses such as dirty, cleaning, cleaned and inspected. Staff remain responsible for those updates and the decision to release a room.
Which guest tasks can Zotel automate?
Essential includes WhatsApp booking confirmations. Elite adds payment-request and review-request automations. These use configured triggers; they are separate from AI document extraction. Availability, activation and messaging charges depend on the property’s setup.
Is a PMS the same as a channel manager?
No. The PMS manages the stay inside the hotel; the channel manager exchanges rates, availability and reservations with connected booking channels. Zotel provides both as part of its connected hotel platform.
