Overview

About this plugin

Saksh WP Hotel Booking Lite turns any WordPress site into a fully functional hotel reservation system. Built on top of WooCommerce, it supports room management, date-based availability, seasonal pricing, extra services, deposit payments, and comes with a reporting dashboard and REST API — all free.

Core Features

  • Room management — Rooms as a custom post type with featured images, amenities (taxonomies), short intro, and up to 5 booking plans per room (e.g., non-refundable, flexible, breakfast-included).
  • WooCommerce integration — Bookings flow through the standard WooCommerce cart and checkout, so you get all 60+ payment gateways, coupons, tax handling, and order management out of the box.
  • Real-time availability checking — Transaction-locked availability checks prevent double bookings even under concurrent traffic.
  • Blackout dates & stay rules — Per-room minimum/maximum stay and blackout date configuration.
  • Seasonal pricing — Configure rate multipliers for date ranges (e.g., “Dec 20 to Jan 5: +30%”). Multiple overlapping rules supported.
  • Extra services / add-ons — Breakfast, parking, airport shuttle, late checkout, etc. Per-booking, per-night, or per-person-per-night pricing.
  • Deposit payments — Choose full payment or configurable deposit percentage (guest pays X% now, remainder at check-in).
  • Email automation — Booking confirmation, pre-arrival reminder (3 days before check-in), and cancellation emails sent automatically via WP Cron.
  • iCal import — Paste Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, or VRBO feed URLs per room. Hourly cron fetches and blocks externally-booked dates to prevent double bookings.
  • Reports dashboard — Monthly revenue chart, occupancy rate tracking, and key booking stats with visual charts.
  • REST API — 4 endpoints (rooms list, availability check, bookings list/create) with API key authentication. Namespace: /wp-json/saksh/v1/.
  • Guest account integration — “My Bookings” tab on WooCommerce My Account page shows a guest’s booking history.
  • Translation ready — Full POT file included in /languages.

Shortcodes

  • [SakshRoomSearch] — Displays the room search form with date picker and guest count fields.
