Jun 12,2023Free to Book provide the tools for those who so wish to maximise their reach and margins. Fully appreciate that there will be different horses for courses for each accommodation provider. That not each option provided by FTB will necessarily be of use to a particular accommodation provider/s. However after migrating from another Channel Booking Provider - Guestlink (due to it being decommissioned) across to FTB - personally I think FTB provide an excellent platform of choices for accommodation providers to pick and choose in order to maximise their own business. We have opted for all their options . Yes there are costs - but FTB have to charge in order to be able to develop and support their own business model, both for their own business and those of associated accommodation providers.

Jun 12,2023Great platform, easy to use, works brilliantly and integrates with your own website and the bigger platforms like Airbnb, booking.com etc. Customer service is superb if you have any queries.

Jun 12,2023freetobook is so easy to navigate, adding reservations and updating bookings is a cinch. Pricing is good; customer service is good. Highly recommend.

Jun 12,2023Any problems are sorted out very quickly, by real people that you can actually get to speak with...not by an online 'chat'.

Jun 12,2023We can only recommend Free to Book to every B&B owner or small Hotel we have been with them for over 8 years. Software is superb, and service is excellent! All very nice employees, that always will help you if you have a problem. Keep up the good work. Best regards the owners of zur-friedrichsruh.de in Germany

Jun 12,2023We have been using FreetoBook as the channel manager for our B&B business for nearly 7 years. We have found them to be completely reliable, reasonably priced and ideal for our business. We have rooms that can be offered in a variety of formats which other channel managers weren't able to deal with. FreetoBook continue to offer improvements and added value to their service and we highly recommend them.

Jun 12,2023Freetobook was a referral & suggested option a couple of years ago when we were looking to acquire a replacement online booking system. Put simply, the whole experience and service provided has been absolutely superb and professional, so would most definitely recommend. The team are always very helpful and supportive, with numerous options and add-ons available (Stripe, Messaging, Channel Management etc.) at reasonable costs that enable people such as us to have a dramatic saving in precious time. Another real 'like' is the service and system development that Freetobook are striving to continually offer, and especially by attempting to reduce a loss in our income due to (excessive) OTA commissions and costs. Importantly, our visitor feedback has been full of praise too for the professional and slick service that is provided. Keep it going Freetobook

Jun 11,2023I have been with freetobook for a number of years now and the platform has made the management of my property very easy and streamlined the whole process effectively. They have always answered all of my questions so the responsiveness is really good - you know that you will get a response from someone who knows what they are talking about as the company is still relatively small, but a good size for what they offer. They are based in Scotland, so it is good to know you are dealing with a company that are not half a world away and not understanding of your needs as a business. In recent times they have upgraded a number of their services, and although they do come at an extra cost, they are upfront about it and the prices seem fair to me for the additional benefit you get. All in all, I am happy to be with freetobook for my holiday cottage and I can see how this would benefit people in a similar position, or with multiple properties or rooms. I can see me being with them for a long time to come!

Jun 11,2023Excellent company to work with. Easy to use booking system and over 9 years with Free2Book never had an issue. If I did have a query the response was always fast and helpful. Thank you for making my business easier to run.

Jun 11,2023I have worked with FreetoBook for several years to manage availability for our Self Catering Holiday Cottage, The Old Cart House Brawby. I have found there services to be easy to use and allowing easy communication with guests as well as simple availability and pricing calendar management being sent out to all the online travel agents. I cannot praise them enough.

Jun 10,2023We have been with Freetobook since opening our B&B business in August 2020 and can highly recommend them. Nothing is too much trouble and you really have the feeling that they are on your side. They are always coming up with new ideas to help you take more direct bookings which obviously is a huge bonus to our small business. Many thanks and keep up the good work! Laurence and Nicholas

Jun 10,2023I joined free to book at the start of the year after spending a frustrating year with another company. Free to book website is very user friendly, I like the colour coding and clear diary view we get, they are competitive in pricing and you can sign up for add ons if you want. Customer service team are very friendly and you get a quick response, there is also the Hive which has lots of useful threads and answers to popular questions, the booking beat app on the other hand I find very clunky and not at all user friendly, this needs some serious development. All in all I am happy so far and will probably look at adding on certain services next year.

Jun 10,2023Freetobook offers a seamless method of accepting and processing online bookings for our B&B business. Any support required is given promptly and in a simple manner. An excellent company to deal with.

Jun 10,2023This a great little independent company that is dedicated to making booking software for independent hotels/Inns. The core booking software is free and there are numerous add-on options that you can choose from to match your needs. Pricing is very reasonable and I like that they are dedicated to helping us get as many direct bookings as possible. Good dependable software with great support. There are some features that I wished that they offered to customers outside of the UK such as Google hotel connections but we are doing fine with their Google zero offering for now.

Jun 10,2023We have been extremely grateful for how easy it is to use freetobook. The system is easy to use and if you have any problems the team are always on hand to help and usually immediately. They have lots of extras and adding new aids all the time. We have recommended them to many other hospitality businesses. If you are making a decision to use a channel manager look no further these guys are first class and know what they are doing.

Jun 12,2023I've used Freetobook for 5 years now - free of charge and it's great. Perfect for my bunkhouse which has 14 beds so I didn't need some fancy complex system. As time has gone on I realise it's a pretty powerful package and have recently paid to go onto the messaging system which I love - and I'm not a lover of change! So it can be simple as you like or as full on as you like, definitely worth a switch over or great for first timers.
