Hotel management system for Uganda and East Africa

HMS is our hotel management system for East African hotels and guesthouses. Reservations, rooms, housekeeping, guests, payments and the restaurant and bar run in one place, priced in UGX with Mobile Money.

  • Double bookings blocked by the system
  • Rooms, bar and housekeeping in one place
  • Each staff member signs in with their own role
  • Fixed written quote before any payment

Our work: HMS: Hotel Management System

What our hotel management system service includes

  • Reservations and front desk

    Bookings, check-in and check-out, with double bookings blocked at the database.

  • Restaurant and bar POS

    Modifiers, voids, split bills and Mobile Money tenders.

  • Housekeeping and maintenance

    Housekeeping and maintenance tracked in the same system.

  • Inventory and cash-up

    Stock for kitchen and bar, with shift cash-up.

  • Staff roles

    Nine staff roles plus PIN sign-in for the front desk.

  • Booking website

    A hotel website with live availability and booking requests.

Why hotels move off paper and spreadsheets

Hotels in the region often run bookings, housekeeping and the bar on separate books. That is how double bookings, unpaid folios and missing bar stock slip through. HMS puts reservations, guests, payments, housekeeping and the restaurant and bar in one system, so the front desk, kitchen and management work from the same records.

Try it before you talk to us

The HMS public demo needs no sign-up. Every visitor gets a private copy of a demo hotel with 86 rooms and 2 outlets for 24 hours, so you can make bookings, ring up bar orders and check out guests yourself.

HMS is in use at Ishasha Junction Hotel, whose website and booking requests we also built.

Ready-made, with room to adapt

Because HMS is a product rather than a one-off build, it costs far less than a custom hotel system. Each hotel’s data is kept separate with row-level security. If your property needs something specific, such as a conference desk or a safari activity booking, we scope it as an addition.

Want to know what it costs? Starting prices and an instant estimate are on our pricing page, and every project gets a fixed written quote before any payment.

Hotel management system: common questions

Straight answers to what clients ask before they start.

What is the best hotel management system in Uganda?

The best one is the one your staff will actually use. Look for UGX pricing, Mobile Money, a restaurant and bar POS, housekeeping and separate staff roles. HMS has all of these, and you can test it on the live demo before deciding.

How much does a hotel management system cost?

HMS is a ready-made product, so it costs far less than a custom build. The price depends on rooms, outlets and setup needs; see our pricing page and ask for a written quote.

Does HMS work for small guesthouses?

Yes. You only set up the rooms, outlets and staff roles you have, and the same system grows if you add rooms or properties.

Can guests book from our website?

Yes. We build hotel websites with live availability and booking requests, as we did for Ishasha Junction Hotel and Namirembe Guest House.

Do we need internet for HMS to work?

HMS runs in a web browser and needs an internet connection. We recommend a backup connection, such as a mobile data router, at the front desk.
