Hotel Booking Engine for Short-Stay and Long-Stay Guests

Modern travelers demand flexibility, personalization, and convenience, traditional hotel booking engines are no longer enough. From digital nomads seeking monthly stays to tourists booking weekend getaways, hotels need a system that can cater to every type of guest—without juggling multiple complicated tools or booking platforms.

Enter The Percentage App: a game-changing hotel booking engine designed as a 2-in-1 solution for both short-stay and long-stay guests. With robust support for everything from daily room rates to extended monthly or yearly contracts, this cutting-edge platform offers unmatched customization, seamless integrations, and powerful features designed to supercharge your direct booking performance.

Whether you manage a boutique hotel, a multi-property group, or a chain of serviced apartments, this is your all-in-one booking engine—optimized for today’s travel behavior.

Why a 2-in-1 Booking Engine Matters

The hospitality industry is rapidly evolving, powered by technology. The lines between hotels, serviced apartments, co-living spaces, co-working spaces and vacation rentals are blurring. With that shift comes a critical need for booking engines that support multiple types of stays, without forcing property owners to rely on confusing separate systems.

Traditional booking engines are built around short-stay travel—daily pricing, calendar selection, and instant confirmation. But long-stay guests – those booking for 1, 3, 6, or even 12 months – require different workflows: automatic contract generation & signing, monthly pricing models, prorated billing, online payment and different policies and cancellation settings.

The Percentage App bridges that gap by offering:

Hybrid daily and monthly search functionality in the same interface
Short-stay and long-stay pricing all within one platform
Contract and payment support for extended bookings
A flexible promotion system that supports different lengths of stay

All within a single booking experience that’s designed to convert.

Core Features That Set The Percentage App Apart

Let’s take a closer look at what makes The Percentage App the smartest choice for modern accommodation providers.

Dual Mode: Short-Stay + Long-Stay Booking

At the heart of The Percentage App lies its seamless dual booking mode. Guests can search for availability using a traditional date picker and depending on the search criteria, the system will determine what best to present to each guest, whether it be for short stays or switch to a monthly view to explore longer-term options. The system dynamically displays the appropriate rates and promotions depending on the length of stay.

Long-stay features include:

Predefined promotional pricing for 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12+ month durations for each room type
Custom monthly pricing (including mid-range durations like 2, 4, or 5 months & partial months)
Online contract generation and e-sign support with Dropbox Sign
Partial or full payment options (via Stripe, PayPal, or custom gateway)
Flexible move-in and move-out dates
Support for prorated billing
Custom booking confirmation email template for long-stay and short-stay

This opens the door for hotels, hostels, serviced apartments, and hybrid properties to fully tap into the digital nomad, remote work, student housing, and medical tourism markets.

High Conversion Focus with Optimized Front-End

Looks matter – and performance matters even more. The Percentage App boasts a fast, secure, mobile-first interface with modern design, built to keep guests engaged and moving toward checkout.
