Benvo vs Cloudbeds

Cloudbeds alternative for hotels that also run food, drink and spa

Cloudbeds is a well rounded all in one platform for independent hotels, hostels and small groups, with a live channel manager and an open marketplace. Benvo costs about the same for the core hotel jobs and goes further when the property also runs a restaurant, spa or club, since those share one guest record. Cloudbeds is the safer pick if rooms are your whole business and you depend on many booking sites today.

About Cloudbeds

What Cloudbeds is.

Cloudbeds was founded in 2012 and sells a cloud PMS, channel manager, booking engine and payments as one platform for independent properties around the world. Its higher plans add online check in, kiosks and guest messaging, and a marketplace connects it to hundreds of partner apps.

Choose Cloudbeds if

Independent hotels and hostels that want rooms, distribution and payments in one familiar package.

Choose Benvo if

Boutique hotels and clubs with rooms where dining, events and the spa drive as much revenue as the beds.

Why venues move from Cloudbeds

Restaurant and spa on one record

Cloudbeds connects a restaurant POS through partner apps and does not show dining and spa on one guest record. Benvo has its own POS, reservations and spa modules on the same record.

Online check in on every plan

Cloudbeds puts online check in, kiosks and guest messaging in its Experience plan. Benvo includes online check in and guest messaging with the hotel modules.

Member and club rates

Cloudbeds has no club membership rates. Benvo sells rooms at member tier prices, which suits clubs with bedrooms.

An AI team that answers guests

Chloe, the Benvo concierge, replies to guest messages and phone calls, and Zack briefs the manager each morning, paid from prepaid Agent time.
