Bookings and distribution

Run every room, date and restriction from one booking calendar.

Q: Can I see direct, OTA and manual reservations in one calendar?

Yes. Direct, OTA and manual reservations recorded in Kiyo appear on the same room-and-date calendar.

Q: Can I drag a booking to a different room or date?

Yes. Kiyo checks the new room and dates for conflicts before moving the reservation and updating availability.

Q: How do I close a room or date?

Choose the room type and dates, then add a blackout. Kiyo updates the calendar and shares the availability change with active channel connections.

Q: Which rate restrictions can I manage?

You can manage rates, availability, minimum and maximum stays, stop sell, closed to arrival and closed to departure. Kiyo shows the controls available for each connected OTA.

Q: Do rate and restriction changes publish automatically?

No. Rate and stay-rule edits wait for your review. Kiyo shows the unpublished changes before you send them to connected channels.

See reservations by room, review monthly availability, block dates, and prepare supported rate and restriction changes for connected channels.

In plain English

What is a hotel booking calendar?

A hotel booking calendar is the operating view of which room is occupied, available or blocked on each date. Kiyo combines a room timeline, availability view and a separate rate-and-restriction calendar so operators can move stays, close dates and publish supported changes with a clear review step.

14-day room timeline

See active reservations arranged across rooms and dates.

Monthly availability

Scan available, occupied and full dates before opening the detail view.

Move or block dates

Check for conflicts before moving a stay or closing a room.

Reviewed publishing

The live room timeline places non-cancelled reservations across a two-week view so the team can see which stay occupies each room and date.

How it works

One calendar is useful only when every source is understood.

Kiyo brings direct, manual and connected OTA reservations into one working calendar while preserving where each booking came from and what can safely be changed.

See the sellable room picture

Read room type, date, availability and reservation status together. Arrivals, departures, gaps and overlapping stays become visible without rebuilding the property in a spreadsheet.

Direct, manual and connected OTA sources

Open the booking behind the block

A calendar reservation leads to its guest, room, dates, source, value and recorded payment context. Supported edits follow the booking rules and source instead of treating every reservation as locally owned.

Protect the availability picture

Direct and front-desk bookings must be entered in Kiyo, while OTA bookings depend on an active mapped connection. Channel updates can take time or need attention, so check the current booking and availability state. Enter WhatsApp, phone and walk-in bookings promptly; mapping alone does not remove every double-booking risk.

Manual records affect availability only when entered
OTA inventory depends on mapping
Exceptions remain part of daily control
