Recommended Accounting System for Guesthouse?

Posted by agknight PM | on Tue, 17/01/2012 - 15:30 552 2 comments | report

My guesthouse client hates spreadsheets, and would prefer the straight jacket of a computerised accounting system. My preference is for something in the Cloud.

It must easily account for and control individual guest deposits, as well as having a retail facility for bar sales. It would be great if it raised sales invoices - accounting for deposits, and has a database of guest names, addresses and emails that can be used for mailshots?

This is only a small business, so I expect to compromise with some work-around, but am just interested to know what may be out there, wider than I can personally research.

To narrow my search down, does anyone have any recommendations please?

Only one answer, but one's enough as it is a good one!

It doesn't reconcile to the bank, but how often does a client with a spreadsheet manage that!

The good thing is, it tallys the costs like a spreadsheet, but for the client it also has a great online bookings facility.

Many thanks
