Guest Directory Interface

Our Guest Directory page allows you to easily review the arrivals, departures and other information straight from the main page.

Accessing Multiple Reservations

With this new update, you can now seamlessly access the multiple reservations from the same guest under the same overview page.

Navigate to the Guest Directory tab on the menu on the left. This will display all of your guests, including the following information:

  1. Name
  2. Contact
    • Phone Number
    • Email
  3. Reservations
    • The check-in and check-out date
    • Multiple reservations. If there is more than one reservation, a + more sign will show up next to the dates.

Once you click on that + more sign, all the upcoming reservations will display in the drop down.

4. Score. If this is a returning guest, it will display the satisfaction score they have shared from their previous stay.

5. Stop Messaging. Turn the automated messages on/off for this particular guest.

A few changes about the guest directory page.

We’ve removed the option to click on the title of any of the attributes on the table and sort your guest list in ascending/descending order according to the attribute.

Now the list displays according to arrival dates first.

Guest Reservations

An amazing update on the Guest Profile is the Reservations section on the right side of the screen.

As you can see, this guest has multiple reservations that you can easily access directly from the Guest Profile page.

As you can see on the example above, we can see that this guest has three reservations:

  • A past reservation from 2023-08-21
  • A reservation for 2023-11-22
  • A reservation for 2023-11-28

Seamlessly navigate through different reservations with a simple click. By selecting the desired reservation date and clicking on the date directly, the information for every reservation will display.

Next to arrival, you’ll see the option for more actions.

By clicking on the menu for each reservation you are able to:

  1. Go to reservation
    • This will take you from the activity page and all related snippets from the reservation you are currently selecting.
  2. Edit reservation
    • Edit details about that particular reservation.
  3. Archive reservation
    • Make the reservation inactive

Reviewing Archived or Inactive Reservations

When you select to archive a reservation, will still be removed from the general reservations list, but you can still access it as it is saved within your database.

In the example above, we archived the reservation for 2023-11-28. As you can see, it no longer displays in the Reservations list.

Right at the bottom, you can see the Archived Reservations.

Click here to expand all archived or inactive reservations.

Use the Unarchive button to reactivate a reservation. Once you select this option, it will show up under all other reservations.
