Rate checking tools for hotels in India
A rate checking tool reads what booking sites charge for your rooms and your competitors', so you can see who sells for less and on which nights. These are the ones sold to hotels in India, each described as its own website describes it, with OneHorizyn among them.
Each tool's own pages read on , and again every quarter.

Questions about rate checking tools
What does a rate checking tool do?
- It reads the prices booking sites show for your hotel and for the hotels you compete with, night by night, so you can see where a site sells your room for less than your own website, and how your prices sit against your competitors'.
Which booking sites matter most for a hotel in India?
- The ones your guests book on. Your own bookings by source, from your property management system or channel manager, show which sites bring you guests; a rate checking tool should read at least those.
Is a rate checking tool the same as a channel manager?
- No. A channel manager sends your prices and rooms to the booking sites. A rate checking tool only reads what the sites then show, which is how you find out whether they show what you sent.
