What it does
Running a lodging business means keeping track of which rooms are free, what each night costs and which rules apply to each stay. This plugin brings that work into your WordPress site. Guests see up-to-date availability on a calendar, which helps prevent double bookings, and they pick dates that follow the rules you set, such as a minimum stay or specific check-in and check-out days. Rates can change by season, holiday or special date, so pricing follows your calendar.
On the back end, you manage bookings, room inventory and customer details from one dashboard. Payments and invoices can run through WooCommerce, so you can use its payment processing and record-keeping. The system supports different accommodation types, from single rooms and suites to vacation homes, and it works on phones and tablets. Multilingual and multi-currency support helps with international guests, and automated, customizable emails keep guests and staff informed about confirmations, reminders and changes.
Best for
- Hotels and small inns taking direct bookings
- Vacation rental owners managing one or more homes
- Bed and breakfasts offering extras like breakfast

Questions about HBook

Yes. The plugin integrates with WooCommerce for payment processing and invoices. This lets you rely on WooCommerce for handling transactions and keeping financial records tied to each reservation.
Can I require a minimum stay or limit check-in days?
