Room Types Overview

Note: if you choose rate management option 1 (individual rooms with individual rates), you can skip this section, and go directly to the Rooms Overview.

 

Set up room types when your property has several rooms of the same type and you want to group them. For instance, you may have a group of rooms with king size beds. You can set up a room type "king" and assign all king rooms to that room type. You can then assign room rates to the "king" room type and all rooms assigned to that room type will inherit those rates. In other words, you will not have to assign rates to each king room individually if you set up room type for all king rooms.

 

To access room types:

  1. Click the Configuration icon Configuration.bmp or select View > Program Configuration from the menu to display the Configuration window.
