Run your hotel or resort from any device, anywhere — no servers, no installation, no IT headaches. StayDesk is a fully cloud-based hotel management system (SaaS) designed for Indian hotels, resorts and homestays.
Traditional hotel software runs on a computer at your property — which means if that machine breaks, floods, or is stolen, your data and operations go with it. Cloud hotel management software like StayDesk stores everything securely on remote servers, backed up daily, accessible from any device.
For Indian resort owners — especially those managing properties in coastal areas, hill stations, or wildlife destinations — this is a significant advantage. You can check reservations from home, your manager can run the front desk from a tablet, and your accounts can be reviewed from a phone while you're travelling.
StayDesk is built specifically for Indian hospitality: GST billing that follows Indian tax law, Razorpay payment integration for UPI and cards, and support in English, Telugu, and Hindi.
Plans start at ₹999/month — a fraction of the cost of legacy on-premise systems — with no long-term contract and a 15-day free trial.
No hardware. No maintenance. Just open your browser and run your property.
StayDesk runs entirely in the browser. No server to buy, no software to install, no IT department needed. Sign up and you're live in 15 minutes.
Manage your property from a phone at the front desk, a tablet in the lobby, or a laptop in the back office. Same data, always in sync.
New features, GST rule changes, and security patches are deployed automatically. You always run the latest version without doing anything.
Your guest data and financial records are encrypted at rest and in transit, with daily automated backups on cloud infrastructure hosted in India.
Your own commission-free booking page in the cloud. Guests book and pay online with UPI or card, and the booking lands straight in your calendar.
Our support team is available in English, Telugu, and Hindi via email and WhatsApp — staffed by people who understand Indian hospitality.
One cloud PMS for rooms, money and guests — the parts of a hotel ERP an independent property actually uses.

Live room status and task assignment so rooms get turned around faster.
Sell food, drinks and sundries from your in-resort store — add them to the guest's folio or ring up a quick cash bill, all from one product list.
Track consumables and assets in your own categories, with low-stock alerts and a record of what was used in which room or department. Run several storerooms — kitchen, bar, housekeeping — and move stock between them (Growth & Pro).
Log expenses paid now or bought on credit. See what you owe each vendor, pay several bills in one go, and keep a running ledger per vendor.
Occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, collections and P&L — know what drives your revenue.
Add your team with role-based permissions — front desk, housekeeping, managers — so each person sees only what they need.
Scan or upload the guest's Aadhaar and StayDesk checks UIDAI's digital signature, then fills the booking. Free, no OTP, no photocopies — the full number is never stored.
Guests sign the registration form on your tablet or phone — or from their own phone before arrival. The signature prints on the registration card. No paper forms to file.
Bill your restaurant from StayDesk: counter and table orders, kitchen tickets (KOT), GST bills on a thermal printer, charge to the guest's room, credit customers, merge / split bills and QR ordering from tables and rooms.
Own more than one resort? Manage all of them with a single login and switch from the top bar. Each property keeps its own bookings, staff and billing.

A cloud-based hotel PMS (property management system) is hotel software that runs on secure internet servers instead of a computer at your property. You open it in a browser or app on any phone, tablet or laptop. Bookings, the front desk, billing and reports stay in sync for everyone, with automatic backups and updates.
Yes. StayDesk is SaaS (software as a service): you pay a monthly or annual subscription, from ₹999/month, and we host, update and back it up. There is no licence fee, no server to buy and no long-term contract.
For an independent hotel or resort, yes in practice. Besides the PMS (bookings, front desk, housekeeping, billing), StayDesk covers expenses and vendor credit, inventory and storerooms, restaurant billing (add-on), monthly cash closing and P&L reports — the parts of an ERP a small property actually uses.
Cloud hotel management software (also called a cloud PMS) is a web-based platform that runs on remote servers instead of a computer at your property. You access it through a browser on any device — phone, tablet, or laptop — and your data is always backed up, always up to date, and accessible from anywhere.
Cloud software has no upfront hardware cost, no IT maintenance, automatic updates, and access from any device. On-premise software requires you to buy and maintain a server, is tied to one machine, and needs manual updates. For a small or mid-sized Indian resort, cloud is almost always the better option.
Yes. StayDesk encrypts all data at rest and in transit, runs daily automated backups, and hosts infrastructure on enterprise-grade cloud servers in India. Your data stays in India and is never shared with third parties.
StayDesk requires an internet connection to sync in real time. For areas with unreliable connectivity, we recommend using StayDesk on mobile data as a backup. For check-ins already in progress, the current folio stays loaded in your browser tab.
Yes. Multiple staff can be logged in simultaneously from different devices. Role-based permissions mean front desk staff see only what they need, while managers have full access to reports and settings.
Most properties are live in 15 minutes. Our onboarding wizard walks you through adding your rooms, rates, and connecting your first OTA channel. No technical background is needed.
No hardware, no installation — up and running in 15 minutes.
