Everything a hotel does, screen by screen

Sonnette grew out of the real needs of a 29-room hotel. Every screen was built for daily use, not for a feature list.

Front desk: the Today screen

The whole day on a single screen, with no need to look for information elsewhere.

  • Today's arrivals and departures, with check-in status and outstanding balance at a glance.
  • Automatic alerts: today's unpaid balances, online check-ins to verify.
  • Extras to serve (breakfasts and add-ons) and today's payments, grouped together.
  • Widgets you can show or hide depending on what matters for your hotel.

Planning

A calendar that reads and handles as fast as a paper diary, only faster.

  • A grid that scrolls continuously through time, with three zoom levels (week, fortnight, month).
  • Create a booking in two clicks, directly on a free slot.
  • Booking.com and Expedia reservations flagged, without leaving the screen.
  • Blocked rooms handled like a booking, to take a room out of service.
  • "Free over this period" filter, view by room category or by room number.

Housekeeping

Housekeeping tracking linked to the day's departures, on desktop and on phone alike.

  • Departures and housekeeping grouped in the day's table.
  • Each room's cleaning status visible from the arrivals screen.
  • A dedicated mobile view for the housekeeping team, designed for a phone in a pocket.

Guests & companies

A single guest record, built up with every stay.

  • A single guest record: contact details, invoices, payments, bookings and emails all in one place.
  • Instant search by name, phone number or email.
  • A separate companies tab for corporate guests.
  • Stay history kept from one visit to the next.

Invoicing & compliant till

An invoicing chain built to withstand a tax audit, not just to print a PDF.

  • A till compliant with article 286-I-3° bis of the French General Tax Code (CGI): unalterability, security, retention and archiving of payment data.
  • Invoice numbering by annual sequence, with a prefix specific to your hotel.
  • A validated invoice is locked; it is corrected with a credit note, never by deletion.
  • A booking file with the running total always visible: total, invoiced, paid, balance.

Payments & audit log

Every euro collected is tracked, from the booking file to the audit log.

  • Take payment in one action from the booking file, with several payment methods.
  • Automatic reconciliation when a payment exactly settles an invoice.
  • Manual reconciliations, reversible at any time.
  • An audit log of every sensitive operation, exportable per hotel.

Email & Booking / Expedia messaging

Every conversation with a guest in one place, whatever the channel.

  • Emails sent under your hotel's name, with replies routed back to your own address.
  • Booking.com and Expedia messaging centralized alongside other guest exchanges.
  • Editable, multilingual email templates.
  • Delivery tracking for every email, from the guest file.

Statistics

Figures explained in plain English, not an opaque dashboard.

  • The month's key indicators, each explained with the calculation detail one click away.
  • Sales forecast: confirmed bookings against open offers.
  • Breakdown by stay type, booking source and OTA channel.
  • Three exportable reports (PDF/CSV): bookings, invoicing, room-nights by country, age and day.
Statistics

Accounting for your accountant

What your accountant will look at first, ready to export.

  • FEC export and sales journal in the format your accounting firm expects.
  • General ledger account labels, ready to import.
  • Full self-service export of your data (JSON, CSV, invoice PDFs), any time.

Channel manager via Beds24

Your rates and availability, distributed without re-keying.

  • Rate and availability sync with your OTAs via Beds24 (separate Beds24 subscription, paid directly to Beds24).
  • Bulk rate and restriction updates by period, day of week and category.
  • A viewable sync log, with the status of the last transmission.
  • Also works without Beds24: a manual-booking mode for very small properties.

Online payment via Stripe

Take a deposit or balance remotely, without a card terminal.

  • Online collection of a deposit or balance by payment link, via Stripe.
  • Connected through Beds24 for the booking engine.
  • No card data ever stored by Sonnette.
