The conversion layer for hybrid hotels, aparthotels and
holiday rental operators
Rate Rocket sits on top of your existing booking engine and turns direct booking into a measured revenue channel across mixed-format inventory, longer stays, and brand-forward guest experiences.
No replatform.
Live in days, not weeks.
Rate Rocket is live at global hostels and hybrid-hotel brands across Europe, Latin America and Oceania.
What your booking flow is quietly losing
Mixed-format inventory is not native to your booking engine
Dorm beds, private rooms, apartments, and long-stay units belong in the same portfolio but rarely in the same booking widget.
Your booking engines were built for hotels
No native dorms because a bed is a faked “room”. Mixed dorm + private rooms = separate bookings. Groups managed via request forms.
One standard interface, whatever you sell
Limited control of results order, ordering of rates and upsells. Accessibility left to the engine: European Accessibility Act (EAA) in force since June 2025.
What Rate Rocket does for hybrid hotels, aparthotels and holiday rentals
Rate Rocket sits on top of the booking engine you already run. It renders the full shopping journey on your own site, in your brand voice, and hands the basket to your booking engine at checkout.
Your booking engine remains the merchant of record.
Your PMS stays where it is.
-
Rate Rocket renders on your own site, in your own brand, without redirecting to a third-party hosted page. The visual and tonal break that kills brand-forward conversion is removed.
-
The booking flow is rebuilt for the device your guests actually use. Short, clear, single-thumb navigation. Rate and availability visible without a page reload.
-
Dorms, privates, twins, family rooms, and small groups are compared on the same page. Guests see the trade-off between price and privacy without leaving the flow.
-
Parking, cleaning, breakfast, laundry, and airport transfer surfaced during the flow, at the point where the guest is most likely to add them.
-
Groups can have a dedicated path that captures the enquiry, holds inventory where the booking engine supports it, and hands off to the group booking process without dropping the enquiry.
-
In line with eh European Accessibility Act of 2025, the booking flow Rate Rocket renders are built to WCAG 2.1 AA. The parts of the flow your existing booking engine renders remain that vendor's responsibility. The scope boundary is documented in the SaaS Agreement.
