- You keep running your day-to-day from the tool you use.
What you get on your own site

Questions about Hospitable
Do I have to leave Hospitable?
No. You keep Hospitable for your calendar and prices. Your new site sits on top of it, and your guests book on your site.
Do I need a certain Hospitable plan?
Check with Hospitable whether your plan includes access to its API, because that is how we connect. Ask us if you are not sure, and we will tell you what to look for.
Can two guests book the same dates?
Before a booking is taken, we check availability with Hospitable through its API. No system can promise that nothing ever goes wrong, so ask us what is realistic for your setup.
Tell us how you use Hospitable
We will tell you plainly how Hospitable connects, and what does not. Nothing is sold, and we do not promise a connection we have not checked.
Ask us what is possible
We can look at how you use Hospitable and tell you honestly what your site can do with it. We do not promise results, because nobody honest can.
