Floorplan & service

The floorplan is the operating view.

Guests get a clean, venue-branded booking experience. Your team gets requests that already respect the tables, service periods, turn windows, pacing, cutoffs, and combinations.

Hospitality in focus

Software should give the room back to the people running it.

Less searching. Less re-entry. Less explaining what happened. More time for recognition, judgment, and service.

Guests & waitlist

Remember what makes the welcome personal.

Phone-first guest profiles put visits, preferences, allergies, notes, messages, and waitlist history where hosts can use them.

Beyond the reservation

Control the shift. Learn from the service.

Timeline planning, live warnings, staff controls, reports, and alternate floorplans share the same source of operational truth.

Why switch

More of the operating system. Less software sprawl.

Hostbook connects availability, the live room, guest context, staff controls, and migration instead of pricing each workflow as another layer.
