Definition
What is a hotel local revenue platform?
A hotel local revenue platform gives hotels a foundation record of what their local business partnerships produce: guest leads, lead status, and manual commission records. In Stayhos, the hotel curates trusted local businesses in its Discover Near Us layer; guests submit intentional leads from the in-room QR code; and the hotel tracks lead status with read-only aggregate analytics. Commission and settlement tracking are manual today, with CSV export for accounting. No payments, no automatic commission, no guaranteed revenue.
The daily problem
Local partnerships produce value. That value is usually invisible.
Local referrals leave no record
A receptionist who sends guests to a nearby restaurant does the hotel a favour — but nothing gets logged, nothing is visible, and the hotel sees none of what that relationship actually produces.
Commission arrangements stay verbal
Many independent hotels agree on a commission rate with a local restaurant or tour operator, then rely on a note in a spreadsheet or a monthly email. There is no shared record and no aggregate view.
No visibility on what local partnerships produce
Without a foundation record — how many leads went to which partner, which were confirmed, what commission the hotel is owed — the value of local relationships stays invisible to the GM.
Stayhos creates a foundation record: intentional guest leads, lead status, and manual commission records the hotel can export for accounting.
How hotel local revenue tracking works.
The hotel curates the list; the guest submits an intentional lead; the hotel tracks status and records any commission. Guest contact details are shared only when the guest submits.
The hotel curates trusted partners
From the Staff Dashboard, the hotel adds the local restaurants, tour operators, and services it recommends to its own Discover Near Us — a hotel-curated list, not an open directory.
Guests browse and submit intentional leads
Guests open the Guest Hub from the room QR code, browse the hotel's curated picks, and submit a request when they are interested. Their contact details are shared only at the moment they submit.
Leads arrive in the business's own dashboard
Each lead routes to the local business's own dashboard, where the business accepts, contacts, and confirms it. The hotel sees each lead's status — oversight without running the booking.
The hotel records commission manually
Where a commission arrangement exists, the hotel records the agreed amount manually in the dashboard. Commission records are exportable as CSV for manual accounting handoff — not automatic calculation.
Aggregate analytics show what is happening
A read-only analytics foundation shows lead activity in aggregate — volumes per partner, status distribution, and click counts. Never individual guest tracking or marketing profiles.
For the business side of this flow — how leads arrive and are managed in a partner's own dashboard — see local business leads from hotels.
What the hotel can see
A foundation record of what local partnerships produce.
Every capability below is live today. The foundation is read-only aggregate analytics and manual records — not automated billing or payment processing.
Lead status visibility
The hotel sees each lead's status — submitted, accepted, contacted, confirmed, or declined — and which business handled it. The business owns the actions; the hotel keeps oversight.
Aggregate, read-only analytics
A read-only dashboard shows lead volumes, click counts, and status distribution across local partners in aggregate. No individual guest tracking, no marketing profiles, and no cross-hotel visibility.
Manual commission records
Where the hotel has a commission arrangement, amounts are recorded manually against the relevant lead or settlement period. This is a record-keeping foundation, not a payment processor or billing engine.
CSV export for accounting
Commission and settlement records are exportable as a CSV file for manual accounting handoff. The export is a structured record — not an invoice. Stayhos does not send payments or issue payable documents.
Before and after
A manual foundation is a real improvement over no record at all.
Stayhos is not an automated revenue platform. It is a foundation layer: intentional leads, status tracking, and manual commission records that make local relationships visible for the first time.
Local referrals happen verbally — no log, no record.
Each intentional guest lead creates a timestamped status record.
Commission arrangements tracked in a personal spreadsheet.
Manual commission records in the hotel dashboard, exportable as CSV.
No visibility on which businesses got leads or how they responded.
Aggregate analytics show lead volumes and status per partner.
Value of local relationships impossible to quantify.
A foundation record of what each partnership produced this month.
Honest boundaries
A local revenue foundation — and what it is not.
Stayhos makes the leads your local partnerships produce visible and trackable. It does not become a payment processor, a billing engine, or an automatic commission system to do it.
Commission and settlement stay where they belong — between the hotel and the local business, outside Stayhos. The CSV export gives your accountant a structured record, not a payable invoice.
The hotel-curated recommendation layer that produces these leads is covered in detail on the hotel local recommendation platform page.
What it does not claim
Manual · trackedFAQ
Hotel local revenue platform — common questions.
What is a hotel local revenue platform?
A hotel local revenue platform gives hotels a foundation record of what their local business partnerships produce — guest leads, lead status, and manual commission records. In Stayhos, the hotel curates trusted local businesses in its Guest Hub; guests submit intentional leads from the in-room QR code; and the hotel tracks each lead's status with read-only aggregate analytics. Commission and settlement tracking are manual today, with CSV export for accounting handoff.
How does Stayhos help hotels track revenue from local partnerships?
Stayhos gives hotels a foundation record of what local partnerships produce: which businesses received leads, how many, and what their status is. Where a commission arrangement exists, amounts are recorded manually and exportable as CSV. Stayhos does not process payments, calculate commission automatically, or share in platform revenue — it provides the visibility layer for hotels that already have local referral relationships.
Does Stayhos process payments or calculate commission automatically?
No. Stayhos does not process payments, payouts, or invoices, and it does not guarantee bookings. Commission and settlement tracking are manual today, and businesses arrange payment directly with the guest. The CSV export is a record for manual accounting handoff — not an invoice or a payment trigger.
What analytics does the hotel see for local partnerships?
Aggregate, read-only analytics: lead volumes per partner, status distribution (accepted, confirmed, declined), and click counts on Discover Near Us listings. There is no individual guest tracking, no marketing profiling, and no data beyond what the aggregate foundation provides. The analytics layer shows what is happening across the hotel's partnerships as a whole.
How do hotels record commission from local business referrals?
Commission amounts are recorded manually in the Stayhos dashboard — the hotel enters the agreed amount against the relevant lead or settlement period. This is a record-keeping foundation, not automated billing. It is most useful for hotels that already have a commission arrangement with a local partner and want a single place to keep the record.
Can hotels export their commission and settlement records?
Yes. Commission and settlement records are exportable as a CSV file for manual accounting handoff. The export is a structured record of lead activity and any commission amounts the hotel has logged — not an invoice. Stayhos does not send payments or issue payable documents; businesses and hotels settle directly.
Does Stayhos guarantee revenue from local partnerships?
No. Leads depend on real guest interest and the local business's response. Stayhos does not promise lead volume, bookings, or revenue. It makes genuine guest interest visible and trackable, and gives hotels a manual record of the commission their local partnerships produce. The business arranges any payment directly with the guest.
How is a hotel local revenue platform different from a booking engine?
A booking engine processes transactions: guests pay for services inside the platform. Stayhos is not a booking engine. Guests submit intentional leads — not orders or payments — and any payment arrangement stays between the guest and the local business outside Stayhos. The hotel keeps a record of lead status and commission, tracked manually.
