STRYK shows on one screen who’s arriving today, which room is ready, what the guest asked for and what’s still outstanding. You enter a change once. The calendar, cleaning schedule and invoice update automatically.
STRYK for small hotels
One person can manage arrivals, room releases, guest service and invoices-without an IT project or setup fee.
In short
STRYK is hotel software for small hotels and guesthouses where the owners still run the front desk themselves. Reservations, booking portals, your own website, housekeeping, guest registration and invoicing all run in one system in the browser. Pricing is a €59 base price plus €6 per room per month, net plus VAT on annual billing (12 months, renewing for a further 12 months each time; 20% more on monthly billing), with no setup fee and unlimited users.
In a small hotel, the job can change in minutes: welcome a guest, take a booking over the phone, release the next room. Your team needs booking details and room status wherever that work is happening.
STRYK keeps the guest, room, dates and charges with the stay. Reception checks arrivals in the calendar, housekeeping updates room status and the office opens the related invoice. The teams involved can follow the changes.
For small properties, price matters too. STRYK costs a €59 base price plus €6 per room per month, net plus VAT on annual billing (12 months, renewing for a further 12 months each time). With ten rooms that is €119 a month; monthly billing costs 20% more. There is no setup fee, and you can add as many staff, temps and family members as you need. Try it for 14 days with your own rooms. The trial uses sample data; real guest data only after you accept the terms and the data processing agreement.
When most guests arrive through booking portals, 15 to 25% of every room goes to the portal. Often there is no booking page of your own, or it only sends an enquiry email. STRYK includes a booking engine on your own web address where guests book directly and pay through the integrated payment service.
A phone booking, a direct booking and a portal booking can all concern the same room. In STRYK you check availability and add the booking to the calendar. Confirmed portal connections receive changes once synchronisation succeeds. You can see which booking channels have already been updated.
After service you still sit over tomorrow’s departures: adding drinks, working out city tax, writing invoices, collecting paperwork for your accountant. In STRYK extras are already posted to the stay, city tax is built into the price, and the invoice is ready in one click with gap-free numbering.
Paper registration forms get lost, and in Austria guest registration must be completed within 24 hours. STRYK monitors this deadline, flags missing details and provides the data as CSV or for the MBS export. With online check-in, guests enter their registration details themselves before arrival.
In a small property, one person often does almost everything: checking guests in, answering enquiries, letting housekeeping know and writing the invoices in the evening. Every extra list and every second program costs time that really belongs to your guests.
You see arrivals, departures, free rooms and outstanding payments at a glance, before the first guest is standing in front of you.
Enter new dates or a different room once. Availability, price and cleaning schedule are up to date straight away.
Overnight stays, extras, city tax and deposits are already on the invoice. You check it, close it and call it a day.
This is what a Tuesday in June looks like when calendar, housekeeping and invoicing work together.
Over your first coffee you open the calendar in day view. Four arrivals, three departures, two stayovers. Overnight two bookings came in from portals and one from your website; they are already on the plan. A booking for room 7 has a note: arriving at 9 pm. You do not need to reconcile anything, just read.
The cleaning plan is built from actual occupancy. Departure rooms are at the top, stayovers below. Your housekeeper has received the plan as a PDF in her language, or she ticks off rooms directly in the browser. When she marks room 3 as ready, you see it downstairs at the front desk straight away.
A couple asks about two nights at the weekend. You check available rooms, rates and conditions, then add the booking to the calendar. Check the confirmation and its delivery status with the booking. Connected portals receive the updated availability once synchronisation succeeds.
The first guests arrive. Anyone who used online check-in is already registered with their details and signature; you just check their ID. For everyone else you enter the registration details directly in STRYK. The system keeps an eye on the 24-hour deadline for guest registration for you.
The drinks from the beer garden are already posted to the rooms. For tomorrow’s three departures you create the invoices in advance, as a PDF in the guest’s language. At the end of the month you hand your accountant a package for DATEV or BMD instead of a folder full of receipts.
Day, week, two weeks or month. Move bookings to another room or date with the mouse. Create walk-ins straight from the calendar, as well as multi-room bookings for families.
Through the channel manager, availability and rates go out to connected portals and bookings come in automatically. Connect Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb and other channels to STRYK. Manage rates and availability centrally and handle OTA reservations in the calendar. Your own booking engine runs on your web address alongside.
Room status from dirty through clean to ready and inspected, with checklists and minibar. If you wish, the plan goes to your team by email as a PDF every day, in 18 languages.
Invoices with gap-free numbering, credit notes and e-invoicing. STRYK calculates city tax for you. Deposits and balances can be collected online through the integrated payment service, depending on the payment methods in your payment account.
STRYK monitors the 24-hour deadline, flags incomplete registration details and provides the data as CSV or MBS export. No registration slips through, even when a temp covers the front desk at the weekend.
Every guest has a profile with previous stays and notes. STRYK detects possible duplicates and merges them, so you recognise regular guests the moment they call.
Sell vouchers online with payment through the integrated payment service, or directly at the front desk. The guest receives a PDF with a QR code, and vouchers can also be redeemed in part.
At month end you export invoices and payments for DATEV, BMD, as CSV or Excel. You import bank statements as CAMT or CSV files and match payments to invoices.
Base fee plus a fee per room, net plus VAT. In the first contract year the base fee is 20% off. Yearly billing costs less than monthly.

Calculate the price for your room countTypical moments in properties with five to forty rooms, and what STRYK takes off your hands.
Guests who used online check-in already have their registration details on file. You check the ID and hand over the key, with no form at the desk. You answer guest messages later in one go on the booking, with templates or with reply suggestions from the Guest AI add-on.
In the rota, “Plan week” proposes the shifts, the team clocks in and out and requests leave in STRYK. Every temp gets their own login with the right permissions. There is no price per user.
The restaurant till posts dinner straight to the room with STRYK POS, and it is on the invoice at check-out. If you take cash or card at the front desk in Austria or Germany, Cash register & fiscalisation signs every receipt.
The channel manager sends availability and rates to the connected portals. After a successful sync, a sold room is taken everywhere. Phone bookings go into the same calendar.
STRYK flags missing registration details and tracks the 24-hour deadline in Austria. The tourist tax is calculated on the stay and lands on the invoice without manual sums.
STRYK runs in the browser, including on your smartphone. You see arrivals, room status and messages with the same data as on the front desk computer. There is also the STRYK app for iPhone and Android.
Keep the room, dates and charges on one booking.
Free, occupied, blocked or ready: every room shows exactly where it stands.
Reception can see how cleaning is progressing.
From the room price to the accountant: every amount on the right stay.
Try your daily routines with sample data before setting a date to switch.
Set up rooms, categories and rates. Use a test booking and sample guest to check arrival, room status and invoicing. The free trial lasts 14 days. There is no setup fee.
Use a test run to see which bookings and guests can be imported. Review mappings, errors and warnings, then complete any missing details. Run the import only after you have confirmed it.
Plan your switch date and first check your booking page and the portal connections confirmed for your property. Your team uses individual Nextpulse ID accounts with the appropriate roles.
On annual billing (12 months, renewing for a further 12 months each time) you pay, net plus VAT, a €59 base price plus €6 per room per month, so €119 a month. In the first year you get 20% off the base price. Monthly billing costs 20% more. There is no setup fee and users are unlimited. A platform fee of 1.9% applies only to direct bookings paid online.
No. STRYK runs in the browser on the front desk PC, the office laptop or a tablet. You install nothing and updates arrive automatically. A normal printer is enough for printing invoices or the cleaning plan.
Bookings, guests and rooms can be transferred through data import. Review the source and mapping, along with errors and warnings from the test run. The import runs only after your review and confirmation.
The channel manager is included in the base price and is designed for Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb and other portals. Connect Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb and other channels to STRYK. Manage rates and availability centrally and handle OTA reservations in the calendar. Availability and rates go out automatically, and bookings and cancellations arrive in your calendar automatically.
No. The number of users is unlimited. You can add family members, weekend temps and seasonal staff without the price changing. With roles and permissions you decide who may write invoices and who, for example, only sees the cleaning plan.
Yes. For Austria, STRYK monitors the 24-hour deadline for guest registration, flags incomplete registration details and provides the data as CSV or MBS export. You set up the city tax once; after that STRYK includes it in price and invoice and prepares the city tax return.
STRYK is built for properties where one person covers several jobs. You test for 14 days with sample data and step-by-step guides for front desk, housekeeping and the office. We guide the start personally, with no setup fee.
You bring rooms, guests and open bookings across with the data import. STRYK shows what will be matched first and only imports once you confirm. Your current system keeps running until switch-over day.
The STRYK contract runs for 12 months and renews for another 12 months unless you cancel at least three months before the end of the term. If you cancel during the 14-day trial, access ends immediately and nothing is charged.
STRYK support is reachable from inside the software and sees your hotel context, so you do not have to explain everything again. For daily work there are guides to the most important tasks.
14 days free. All core apps included. No setup fee.
