Why we give it away

How can a complete HMS be free? Three reasons.

We earn on bookings, not on software

Yatra is also a consumer OTA at yatraforfun.com plus a B2B2C platform for Nepali travel agencies. Hotels signed up to the free HMS automatically appear on both — we monetise the small commission on bookings we source, not on the dashboard itself.

Free tooling raises the floor for Nepali hospitality

Hotels in Nepal compete with global chains using USD 200-500/month PMS subscriptions. Giving every Nepali property the same calibre of software for free closes that gap and lets local hoteliers compete on hospitality, not on software budget.

More properties = stronger marketplace

Every hotel that joins the free HMS is a property our consumer site and partner agencies can sell. The free tier directly feeds Yatra's marketplace flywheel — a win for the hotel (free software + new bookings) and a win for the platform (more inventory).

What's inside

All 16 modules — what they do and every sub-feature inside

Each module below mirrors the live dashboard sidebar. Click any title to deep-link to that section. Sub-features list every screen a hotelier sees once the module is opened — same level of detail as the dashboard navigation, but with one-sentence explanations for the parts that aren't self-explanatory.

01

FAQ

Hotel owners ask

Is Yatra Hotel Manager really free for every Nepali hotel?

Yes. All 16 modules — Front Office, Hotels, Reception, Restaurant POS, Inventory, Housekeeping, Maintenance, Amenities, Notifications, Advanced Pricing, Channel Manager, Enterprise Analytics, HR Management, Accounting, User Management, Flights — are free for every Nepali property regardless of size. No licence fees, no per-room charges, no setup costs, no upsell paywall. We monetise through the small commission on bookings sourced via yatraforfun.com and our partner-agency network, not on the dashboard itself.

What is Hotel Management Software (HMS)?

Hotel Management Software (HMS) is the system of record for a hotel's day-to-day operations — front desk (check-in / check-out / billing), housekeeping, maintenance, restaurant POS, channel manager, pricing, finance, HR, and analytics. It replaces the patchwork of paper registers, Excel sheets, WhatsApp groups, and disconnected point solutions that smaller hotels typically run on.

How is HMS different from PMS?

PMS (Property Management System) traditionally refers to the front-desk + billing core. HMS (Hotel Management Software) is the broader umbrella that includes PMS plus everything else — POS, housekeeping, maintenance, channel manager, HR, accounting, analytics. Yatra Hotel Manager is a full HMS — the PMS core is one module among 16.

Does Yatra Hotel Manager connect to Agoda, Booking.com, and Expedia?

Yes. The built-in Channel Manager module syncs rates, availability, and restrictions two-way with Agoda, Booking.com, Expedia, Hotels.com, and Trip.com — plus GDS distribution (Amadeus / Sabre / Travelport) for corporate and travel-agency buyers. No third-party (SiteMinder / RateGain / eZee) subscription required.

Can I run multiple properties on one account?

Yes. The Hotels module supports multi-property setups for chains — single login, per-property branding, currency, tax rules, and cross-property analytics rollups. Chain-level KPIs (chain RevPAR, occupancy, revenue) sit alongside per-property dashboards.

Does the payroll module support Nepali statutory rules?

Yes. Payroll runs in NPR with Provident Fund (PF), Citizen Investment Trust (CIT), Social Security Tax (SST), and TDS calculations per current Nepali labour and tax law. Statutory return reports (PF return, CIT return, SST, TDS) export in the format the labour office and Inland Revenue Department require.

Does the accounting module use the Nepali fiscal year?

Yes. Accounting follows the Nepali fiscal year (Shrawan to Ashad / mid-July to mid-July) by default, with VAT 13% returns, TDS, and full P&L / balance-sheet / trial-balance reports in the same calendar. Audit-pack exports are formatted for Nepali chartered accountants.

Which payment gateways are integrated?

eSewa, Khalti, ConnectIPS, FonePay, IME Pay, PayPal, Visa / MasterCard / Amex (via international card processor), and UPI. All gateways settle to your bank account; reconciliation is handled in the Payments + Accounting modules.

Where is my data stored?

On our Contabo VPS infrastructure with PostgreSQL 16 + Redis 7. Backups run nightly with seven-day retention. No third-party SaaS holds your guest data — Yatra operates the infrastructure end-to-end from Kathmandu.

How long does onboarding take?

One working day for a small property (under 20 rooms), two to three days for mid-size, and a week for chains with multiple properties. The onboarding team is based in Koteshwor, Kathmandu — phone, WhatsApp, or on-site support included in the free tier.

Can my staff use the dashboard on phones?

Yes. The dashboard is fully responsive — front-desk check-in, housekeeping task updates, restaurant POS captain order entry, and maintenance ticket creation all work cleanly on mobile browsers. Native iOS + Android apps for staff are on the 2026 roadmap.

What happens if Yatra goes out of business?

Your data is yours. A scheduled export is available from the Accounting + Hotels modules at any time — CSV, Excel, and SQL dumps of your full hotel data. The data-export commitment is also written into the partner agreement.
