Set room prices in SeroPOS

Set what each room type costs per night at HMS › Prices (/hms/room/pricing). Enter a default price per night for each day of the week, Monday to Sunday, so weekend nights can cost more than weekdays. Then add special prices based on the number of guests, for example one price for 1 adult and another for 2 adults and 1 child, for as many combinations as the room accommodates.

How the price is chosen

When you add a room to a booking, SeroPOS uses the price for each night's day of the week. If a special price matches the booking's number of adults and children, it's used instead of the default. A Friday and Saturday stay therefore picks up your weekend rates automatically.

Discounts and extras

For seasonal or promotional prices, use HMS › Coupons rather than changing the base rates. Charges like breakfast or parking belong in HMS › Extras. Hotel (room booking) is an add-on module. The HMS item shows in the back office sidebar when your subscription includes it and your role has the hotel permissions.

Frequently asked questions

How do I charge more on weekends?

Enter higher prices for Friday and Saturday in the default price per night. Every booking uses the price for each night's weekday.

Can I charge more for an extra guest?

Yes. Add a special price for that number of adults and children. Bookings with that guest mix use the special price instead of the default.

How do I offer a seasonal discount?

Create a coupon in HMS › Coupons for the room types and dates of the offer, and apply it to bookings. Your normal prices stay unchanged.
