Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.6
GPA, above 25 of the 29 other vacation rental tools we grade
KrossBooking is a cloud property management system for hotels, B&Bs and holiday apartments. It bundles a reservations planner, a channel manager and a website booking engine, and prices by the number of rooms or apartments managed. The site is written mainly for European operators and mentions local tourist-reporting rules.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about KrossBooking, taken from its own pages and our grades.
A PMS with channels, a booking engine and guest registration rules to set up.
- 1
Best for a low-cost PMS and channel manager for small properties
KrossBooking is a PMS with a channel manager and booking engine at 4 or 6 euros a unit a month, with a 30-day trial.
- 2
Paid plans start at about $4.47 a month
As its pricing page puts it: €4 per room or apartment / month.
- 3
You can try it first
30-day free trial
- 4
It runs on 3 platforms
Web, iOS and Android.
- 5
Channel manager
Receives reservations from online travel agencies and updates availability and rate plans automatically, with the aim of avoiding overbooking.
- 6
Booking engine
A booking widget for the property's own website. The newer version adds changes, cancellations, online check-in, packages and discount codes.
- 7
Competitor rates

- 8
A 2.6 GPA, above 25 of 29
That is against the other vacation rental tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace KrossBooking you would be making two-way connections to Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for a low-cost PMS and channel manager for small properties
KrossBooking is a PMS with a channel manager and booking engine at 4 or 6 euros a unit a month, with a 30-day trial. Both plans need at least 3 units, the channel manager and booking engine are Premium only, and parts of it are built around European rules.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | 4 euros a unit for Basic and 6 for Premium, with a minimum of 3 units, so Premium costs 18 euros a month at the floor. That is around the category's cheaper quarter. |
| Free plan and trial | C | A 30-day free trial, and the listing doesn't say a card is needed. There is no free plan. |
| Features | B | PMS, channel manager, booking engine, competitor rates and a multi-property planner. The channel manager and booking engine are Premium only. |
| Ease of use | C | No rating on record. A PMS with channels, a booking engine and guest registration rules to set up. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web, iPhone and Android apps, with channel connections and PayPal. No desktop app is listed. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who KrossBooking is for
- Fits if you run a small hotel, B&B or a few holiday apartments in Europe
- Works for owners who want PMS, channel manager and booking engine from one vendor
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you have fewer than 3 units, as both plans need at least 3
- Tight if you want channels on Basic, as the channel manager and booking engine are Premium only
- Watch out: prices are in euros, and over 20 units you get a quote
- Watch out: the tourist-statistics and guest-registration features follow local rules and may not fit outside Europe
Good to know
Good for
- Small hotels, B&Bs and holiday-apartment operators in Europe
- Owners who want PMS, channel manager and booking engine from one vendor
- Properties that want per-unit pricing with no activation fee
Worth knowing
- Prices are shown in euros and both plans need at least 3 rooms or apartments.
- The Basic plan leaves out the channel manager and the booking engine; those need Premium.
- Properties with more than 20 units get an individual quote rather than a listed price.
- The pages describe tourist-statistics and guest-registration features built around local rules, which may not apply outside Europe.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace KrossBooking you would be making two-way connections to Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 25 of the 29 other vacation rental tools we grade. It costs $53.63 a year.
What you could make
- Calendar and invoicing: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Two-way connections to Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- Hooks into the device itself: widgets.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. KrossBooking’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
