What each one costs
Amenitiz pricing
- Presence €42/month
- The PMS core, a booking engine and a basic template website. Aimed at a property coming off spreadsheets that has no online booking at all.
- Sales Pro €113/month
- Adds integrated payments, the channel manager and more automation. Realistically the minimum for any property connecting to OTAs, and the tier I tested. That's €1,356 a year.
- Ultimate+ €125/month
- Adds revenue management tools and additional reporting. €1,500 a year for a full year of PMS, channel manager, booking engine, payments and revenue management. I kept re-checking that figure.
Amenitiz publishes a full price grid, charges no commission on direct bookings at any tier, and quotes monthly. After Cloudbeds made me sit through a twenty-minute call to learn the price of the tier I needed, I want to give credit for that plainly. The comparison is stark: at my 80-room property a mid-market PMS like Mews starts around €3,600 a year, and Amenitiz tops out at €1,500. The price difference is not marginal. So the useful question is not whether it's cheap, it's what you don't get, and the honest answer is depth. Read the contract terms as carefully as the price grid.
Mews pricing
- Essentials From around €300/month
- The entry tier, and the one where shorter contract terms are available. Elena pays at the lower end of the range for her 30-room property and considers it reasonable value.
- Advanced Scales with rooms and features
- The mid tier. Pricing assumes a two-year agreement, which is the part I'd want you to read carefully before signing.
- Enterprise Quote only
- For larger portfolios, with pricing shaped by room count, payment processing volume and add-ons. Also assumes the two-year term.
Transparency here is mixed rather than bad. The tier structure and starting prices are on the website, which I appreciate, but the figure for your specific property still needs a sales conversation because it depends on rooms, payment volume and add-ons. My real objection is the contract. Two years is a long time to commit to a vendor before you've seen how they handle a major incident, or how support holds up once onboarding hands you to the general queue. Two-year terms are common in this category, but cloud-native competitors like RoomRaccoon bill monthly without locking you in. If Mews is confident the product retains customers on merit, the contract shouldn't need to do the retaining.
Prices as last verified during each review. Hotel software pricing moves, and per-room rates behave very differently at 20 rooms and at 200, so run the arithmetic at your own room count. Full detail on Amenitiz pricing and Mews pricing.

Amenitiz
A PMS that publishes its pricing, charges no commission, and starts at €42/month. I checked the maths. Then I checked whether you actually get a PMS for that.
-
Mews
Mews processes over $10 billion in payments for its hotels. I wanted to know what that means for where your guest data ends up.
