Wine Country Lodge, Havelock North
After looking around for several months we decided to go with freeonlinebooking and we have to say we are so glad we did. This is our first experience of using a channel manager and it has not disappointed, it is user friendly, clear and reliable. We had support right from the beginning and still do. freeonlinebooking has a small team that enables them to address any concerns, queries or problems we may have immediately, 24/7. A team that actually talks to each other, this is a testimonial in itself. The cost of this channel manager compared to others gives value for money and we believe we are safe within the knowledge, that if we would like any adaptations or changes within the site, our opinions are valued and examined. Having said that, freeonlinebooking is consistently making additions and amendments to enhance their service to us as users. We would therefore recommend.
Mark and Lyn Rogers, Bryn Derwen Guest House
We have been very impressed with the service we have received from freeonlinebooking. We were a new business setting up our systems when we first met them at a trade show and they have been very supportive in setting up their online booking system for our website, showing us how to make the most of all the features and how we can use the features to grow our business. Over the last year we have contacted them numerous times and they are always happy to support us with our queries and we would definitely recommend them.

Agar House in Llandudno has been working with freeonlinebooking for 8 months now. We changed from another channel manager and so pleased we did. We would highly recommend freeonlinebooking, from training sessions to the 24/7 support you have is second to none. You are kept updated with any changes and they produce a monthly newsletter which always keeps you in touch with any new developments in our industry or site development which might be happening in the future. Well done freeonlinebooking so pleased we changed over to you and would highly recommend them.

Teresa and Mark, The Cranmore Hotel
I bought a Bed & Breakfast business in Cornwall in 2018 and chose freeonlinebooking as my management system. I have never run my own business before and the level of personalised support and coaching I get from Liz and freeonlinebooking is nothing short of outstanding, they are always available on the phone to talk me through any new processes or updates that I need to do, emails are always answered immediately to answer any questions I have and helpful suggestions are often offered to help me stay competitive. The system is easy to use and has many facilities within it to meet all your business requirements, I would recommend it to anyone and would not look at a different management system for my business.
Nicky Pender, Three Tees B&B
We have been with freeonlinebooking four years now, from day one we have used their entire package PMS + Channel Managment + Online Booking Service . My lack of computer expertise was never an issue and your patient staff talked me through things in a logical manner. Always a friendly voice at the end of the phone when I was unsure and helped me every step of the way during the set up period. The system operates to my every expectation. So happy with freeonlinebooking. There has been a few Gremlins along the way and are super fast in sorting things out. Would recommend them 100%.

Kamala, Ten Chichester
After using another company’s PMS System for a number of years I decided to find a less expensive way to sell my rooms online, I then came across freeonlinebooking and have been with them now for over 3 years, firstly using their online booking button on my webpage, which increased my website sales dramatically (all free of commission). I have recently in the last 6 months started to use their PMS system of which I have found easy to use and great to sell those odd days of availability. Their after sales service is excellent and would highly recommend their services. Thank you freeonlinebooking

We have been using freeonlinebooking online booking service since 2012, and are truly thankful we are using their programme. Our bookings have increased, and we can ‘link’ to our advertising partners too. The ease of use is excellent, which can be tailored to our daily requirements. If there is anything we are unsure of we have a dedicated account manager to assist. All in all great!

Hudsons Hotel, Brighton
We started using freeonlinebooking online booking system at the end of March 2009.
Overall the opinion of our staff and Managers that input the data into our booking system is that the website is easily accessible and has all the relevant information needed to complete the bookings.
Setting up the site was fairly easy and gave good instructions and help. If there was something that we could not complete then the staff at freeonlinebooking were on hand to help and make the relevant changes to suit our needs. In the first few weeks of using freeonlinebooking we came across a few issues and concerns, we bought this to the attention of the staff at freeonlinebooking and they have been nothing but helpful and willing to improve on issues that would benefit us; their customer. They are also taking further steps to excel in areas that will help in the booking system that we use. All in all I am pleased we are now using freeonlinebooking and would have no hesitation in recommending the site to other Hoteliers.

Many thanks for your help over the last week with our pals in Booking.Com. Things are working now when we were told before it couldn’t happen!! I can’t compliment you enough Sannah. Every time I need help you are there speedily and most effectively. You are a real star. I have been running companies for over thirty years and I know more than I might about the abilities of support staff… you shine alongside the very brightest. Please don’t ever leave your present position, God knows how we would get on without you.
