    if its for a small hotel then this link might help

    otherwise - you are in for a ton of development work, since most larger hotels do have their own reservation system and if they are delving into online reservations, the online system would, in some way, have to be tied into their current system

    pork99, absolutely no idea - the hotel reservation programs I have seen see to be mostly dos based or VB - typical blue screen interface.

    unfortunately I cant remember any of the names of the software they use, but I have been told (by people working in hotels at reception desks) that a chain of hotels would use the same software, but another chain might use something different.

    that said, there is, i think only a few software packages out there that hotels do use.

    plus gulliver is actually a product of www.flexco.ie

    Interesting

    I thought that as Bord Failte had some invovement with Gulliver it might be widely used but I see from reading a bit more about it that seems to be aimed at smaller guesthouses, B&Bs etc
