The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Hotelogix the advertised per-room rate covers the PMS only; the channel manager and accounting connector are separate per-room subscriptions with their own monthly minimums, so a small hotel budgeting from the headline number will underestimate the bill.; RoomRaccoon revenue and upselling functionality is gated behind higher tiers, so the advertised entry price is rarely what a property that wants automated pricing actually pays.
  • They diverge on capability: Hotelogix covers Front desk grid, RoomRaccoon covers Property management.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Hotelogix

  • The advertised per-room rate covers the PMS only; the channel manager and accounting connector are separate per-room subscriptions with their own monthly minimums, so a small hotel budgeting from the headline number will underestimate the bill.
  • Each additional third-party interface, such as a door lock or a payment terminal, is billed as its own monthly fee, which makes an integrated stack expensive to assemble at a property that wants several connections.
  • Multi-property and enterprise pricing is not published, so a growing group cannot compare Hotelogix against alternatives without entering a sales process.
  • The user interface is dated next to Mews or Cloudbeds, and staff coming from a modern consumer app typically need more training time on the tape chart and folio screens.
  • Support quality varies by region and depends heavily on the local reseller rather than on the vendor directly, so response times in markets without a partner presence are inconsistent.

RoomRaccoon

  • Revenue and upselling functionality is gated behind higher tiers, so the advertised entry price is rarely what a property that wants automated pricing actually pays.
  • The integration catalogue is short compared with the larger cloud platforms, and a property with an existing spa, POS or CRM preference may find no connector exists.
  • Multi-property management is workable but shallow, so a group beyond a handful of hotels will hit reporting and consolidated inventory limits.
  • Support hours follow European and South African time zones, which leaves properties in the Americas and Asia Pacific waiting overnight for anything beyond first-line help.
  • Because distribution, payments and the PMS come from one vendor, a fault or a price rise in any one of them cannot be answered by switching that component alone.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Hotelogix: What does Hotelogix actually cost for a thirty-room hotel?

The core PMS at the entry tier is around 240 US dollars a month at 7.99 per room, but adding the channel manager at about 1 dollar per room with a 25 dollar floor and any interface fees typically pushes the real figure past 300 dollars.

RoomRaccoon: Does RoomRaccoon charge commission on direct bookings?

No. The booking engine is included in the subscription and direct reservations carry no commission, though card processing fees still apply.

Hotelogix: Is the channel manager included?

No. Distribution is a paid add-on charged per room per month on top of whichever PMS tier you are on.

RoomRaccoon: Is it suitable for a hotel with 150 rooms?

It will run, but the product is designed around independents up to roughly 60 rooms and larger properties will find reporting and group handling thin.

Hotelogix: Does Hotelogix take commission on direct bookings?

No. The booking engine does not charge a per-reservation commission; you pay only the subscription and your own payment processing.

RoomRaccoon: Can it be used as a channel manager only?

Not really. The value is in the bundle, and buying it purely for distribution costs more than a dedicated channel manager.

Hotelogix: Is it suitable for a hotel group?

It has a multi-property dashboard, but group pricing is quoted rather than published and larger chains generally shortlist Opera or Mews instead.

RoomRaccoon: Which regions does it support best?

Europe first, then South Africa. Coverage in North America and Asia is lighter on local OTAs and payment methods.
