Cloudbeds pricing

The entry configuration, and the only part of the range that carries a starting figure on the website. Fine for a small property that mostly needs the PMS core and a booking engine.

Where most mid-sized independents land, and the tier I was quoted for my Amsterdam property. That works out at about $4.38 per room per month and bundles the PMS, channel manager, booking engine and the basic revenue management module. Roughly $4,200 a year.

Adds the full revenue management suite, the guest engagement tools and custom reporting. About $6.25 per room per month, or $6,000 a year at my size. The jump buys you the ability to slice your own data properly, which I resent paying extra for.

For larger groups and portfolios. No published figure at all.

How much does Cloudbeds cost?

The entry plans start at roughly $180 to $220 a month. For an 80-room property on the One plan, which is where most mid-sized independents land, I was quoted about $350 a month, or $4.38 per room. Moving up to Experience for the full revenue management suite took it closer to $500 a month. There's no setup fee and no commission on direct bookings.

Does Cloudbeds publish its pricing?

Only partly. The entry plans carry a starting price, but the tier most independents actually need is behind a quote form and a sales call. The call itself was professional and not pushy, and I had a number after about twenty minutes. I still don't respect having to make it. If a company hides the price of the tier you need, it's usually because it wants to anchor you on value before revealing cost.

Does Cloudbeds charge commission on direct bookings?

No, and it matters more than the headline subscription. Some competitors take 1 to 3 percent of direct booking revenue. On an 80-room hotel running at 72% occupancy with a €135 ADR, that commission model would cost me more than the entire Cloudbeds subscription. Zero commission is a material saving that the monthly figure alone doesn't show.
