The short version
HiJiffy is the strongest all-round pick for hotels: its AI answers questions and walks guests through booking on web chat, social, WhatsApp and OTA channels, and it is one of the few hotel chatbots with public prices, from $109 a month billed yearly plus a setup fee. Enso Connect is the best fit for mixed portfolios, pricing hotel rooms and rental listings at the same per-unit rate with WhatsApp, website chat, email and SMS on every plan. HostBuddy AI is the low-cost choice for short-term rental hosts who want AI replies inside their PMS from $7 per property. Asksuite is the most specialized booking assistant for hotels, with AI quotes on WhatsApp and a set of AI agents for abandoned bookings and group quotes, but pricing is by demo only. Canary and Akia suit hotels that want messaging, check-in, upsells and AI voice from one vendor, and Duve fits hotels that also want a branded guest app. Hospitable is a full rental management tool whose automated replies come with the software, and Revinate Chat makes most sense for hotels already on Revinate's CRM.
Short answer
HiJiffy is the best hotel chatbot for independent hotels and hotel groups in 2026, with a booking assistant on web chat from $109 a month billed yearly; Enso Connect suits operators who run both hotel rooms and vacation rentals, from $16 per unit a month billed yearly. HostBuddy AI is the cheapest option at $7 per property a month for short-term rental hosts.
This list is for hotels, serviced apartments and short-term rental operators who want guest questions and booking requests answered by chat and WhatsApp without a person typing every reply. We compared documented features and published prices for 9 tools in two groups: hotel chatbots and guest messaging platforms (HiJiffy, Asksuite, Canary Technologies, Akia, Duve, Revinate Chat) and messaging AI built for vacation rentals (Enso Connect, HostBuddy AI, Hospitable). Scores cover capabilities, ease of setup and value, weighted 40, 30 and 30. The spec sheet shows the channels each vendor lists and whether it is built for hotels, rentals or both. Prices are in US dollars as shown on the vendor page we fetched on 2026-11-09; Asksuite, Canary, Akia and Revinate quote prices only after a demo. Quicktext, now called Quinta, still sells its Velma chatbot, but its published rate covers a hotel data service rather than the chatbot, so we left it out. Book Me Bob's website did not load when we checked, and Zingle now sits inside Medallia's enterprise suite without a separate hotel product page.

Core from $16 per unit a month billed yearly, $20 monthly; 5 unit minimum and no setup fees
Quoted from the Enso Connect pricing page on November 9, 2026:
Core Starting at $16 per unit/month, billed yearly
Enso Connect prices one unit the same way whether it is a vacation rental listing or a hotel room, which makes it a natural fit for operators who run both. Every plan includes EnsoAI, a unified inbox, the Boarding Pass guest portal, upsells, a CRM and a dashboard. The AI agent answers guest messages on every channel, and the Core plan includes one WhatsApp brand, a website chat widget, an email inbox and an SMS line. You set up an AI knowledge base, messaging style, policies and escalation rules, and test replies in a sandbox before going live. Core starts at $16 per unit a month billed yearly, or $20 monthly, with a 5 unit minimum and no setup fees. Pro at $24 adds AI that runs workflows and tasks for up to 5 brands, and Max at $28 adds AI that runs operations across the portfolio. Enso walks through pricing for your portfolio on a demo call before you sign.

HiJiffy is built only for hotels, and it covers the full stay from the first website question to the review request after checkout. HiJiffy says its AI handles up to 90% of guest conversations across web, social, WhatsApp and OTA channels and routes the rest to staff with context and a suggested reply. The booking assistant guides travelers through booking in chat, and if a guest leaves a phone number and consent but does not finish, HiJiffy follows up on WhatsApp. Pricing is published in USD and scales with room count: Basic starts at $109 a month billed yearly for website FAQs in 3 languages, Pro at $179 adds a generative AI chatbot with 132 languages, social media, messaging apps, OTAs and email, and Premium at $359 adds the AI digital concierge, PMS integration, WhatsApp and SMS.

2 weeks free, then $ 7 per property $7 monthly
HostBuddy AI is made by hosts for short-term rentals, and it does one job: answering guests through the property management system you already run. It uses the details you give it about each property, plus your rules and procedures, to answer questions, troubleshoot problems such as a lock that will not open, and escalate issues to your team. It can also offer early check-in, late checkout and gap nights in the conversation and set up messages from pre-arrival to checkout. HostBuddy lists AI messaging, PMS integration, a website chat widget, global language support, custom tone and delay, and a testing sandbox. Pro costs $7 per property a month after a 2 week free trial, Elite $10 and Ultimate $12. Elite and Ultimate add longer conversation history, more guest message sequences and team collaboration. HostBuddy says it has powered 25,000+ properties and processed 40M+ messages.

Asksuite is a booking-focused platform for hotels, built around Sophia, an AI reservation assistant that answers multi-topic questions 24/7 in multiple languages by text or audio and sends automatic quotes. An omnichannel CRM brings WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, email and web chat into one place, and Asksuite connects through the official WhatsApp API rather than an unofficial gateway. AskFlow Agents add specialized AI agents for check-in and check-out, booking confirmation, promotional vouchers, chat recovery, booking engine abandonment, unavailability follow-ups and group quotes, and they work best when Asksuite is connected to your PMS, booking engine or CRM. A copilot helps the reservations team answer faster, and analytics track revenue from conversations. Asksuite says it serves 5,500+ hotels in more than 80 countries and was named the top hotel chatbot by HotelTechAwards for the seventh year in 2026. There are no public prices, so setup starts with a demo.

Akia serves hotels and vacation rentals with an AI agent that answers guests in seconds and knows their reservation, so a late checkout request can be checked and confirmed in the chat. Akia says up to 90% of messages never reach your team. The Basic plan already includes a unified inbox for SMS, email, web chat, OTA, WhatsApp and social messages, plus mini apps for digital check-in, arrival guides, tipping and menus, scheduled messaging and upsells. Pro adds ID verification, advanced routing and conditional messaging, and Max adds AI Voice, which answers the phone, transfers calls and writes call summaries. Skills let staff describe a procedure in plain words, such as handling a maintenance request, and the AI follows it for the next guest. Akia connects to dozens of property management systems and has 2,000+ customers. Every plan and module is priced through sales, so you cannot compare cost without a call.
What it does well
- +Covers text channels and the phone line with the same AI
- +Unlimited users on every plan

Free Essentials plan; Host from $25.52 a month billed annually for 1 property, $10 per extra property
Quoted from the Hospitable pricing page on November 9, 2026:
Save time with automations as a solo property manager. $ 25.52 /mo
Hospitable is a full toolkit for short-term rentals rather than a standalone chatbot, and its messaging is the reason many hosts start with it. The free Essentials plan syncs Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com and Agoda and gives you a unified inbox, calendar and scheduled guest messages. Host, at $25.52 a month billed annually for 1 property, adds automated guest messaging and AI that drafts replies for you to approve, along with dynamic pricing and AI guest issue alerts. Professional at $51.92 adds a direct booking website and smart lock automations, and Mogul at $87.12 adds fully automated guest messaging with Inbox AI, owner statements and an AI copilot. Extra properties cost $10, $15 or $30 each depending on the plan. All features can be tried free for 14 days without a credit card. The trade-off for a chatbot buyer is that hands-off AI replies sit on the top paid plan.
What it does well
- +Permanent free plan with a unified inbox and scheduled messages
- +14-day free trial of all features with no credit card
- +Messaging comes with channel sync, dynamic pricing and tasks
Where it falls short
- −Fully automated Inbox AI replies need the Mogul plan at $87.12 a month

Basic from a $120 a month minimum package; the communication suite starts on Pro at $150 a month
Quoted from the Duve pricing page on November 9, 2026:
Minimum package: $120 / month
Duve is a guest experience platform for hotels that puts messaging, check-in and a branded guest app in one system. Its communication hub brings WhatsApp, email, SMS, Airbnb and OTA messages into one inbox with AI helping staff keep replies personal, and DuveAI answers everyday questions such as the Wi-Fi password at any hour. Guests get a branded web app with check-in, room keys, hotel information and local tips, opened from one link with no download. Online check-in collects guest details, scans documents, takes an e-signature on the registration card and collects payment before arrival. Pricing is published as minimum packages: Basic at $120 a month covers online check-in and the guest app, Pro at $150 adds the communication hub with SMS and WhatsApp and automations, and Premium at $200 adds upsells and ecommerce. Hotels that want the AI chat side therefore start at $150, and some features carry additional charges.
What it does well
- +Published minimum package prices
- +Strong guest app and online check-in in the same product
- +Duve says its hotels see 8-12% upsell conversion
Where it falls short
- −Messaging and automations start on Pro, not the entry plan

Revinate Chat is the AI chat product from Revinate, a hotel CRM and marketing company, and it is designed to sit on top of Revinate Core's guest profiles. Because it syncs with those Rich Guest Profiles, it can tailor answers to the guest it recognizes instead of giving generic FAQ replies. Revinate says the agentic AI resolves up to 80% of routine questions. When a request needs a person, the chat routes it to a live agent with the conversation and the guest's profile attached, and it flags high-intent booking signals for staff to follow up. The chat runs in an encrypted, browser-based interface that you can brand to match the property's look and tone. Revinate positions it as different from standard SMS or WhatsApp guest messaging, so it is mainly a website channel. There are no public prices, and the value case depends on already paying for Revinate Core.
What it does well
- +Personalized answers from existing guest profile data
- +Branded interface that matches the property
- +Fits hotels that already run Revinate marketing and CRM
Where it falls short
- −Most useful only with Revinate Core

Before you pick a product or a plan
Decide whether you need booking help, guest service or both
Some tools focus on turning website visitors into direct bookings, others on answering guests who have already booked. HiJiffy and Asksuite both guide travelers to the booking engine and follow up on abandoned bookings, while Duve, Canary, Akia and Hospitable are stronger after the reservation, with check-in, upsells and in-stay requests. If most of your messages are "is the room available" and "what is the price", start with a booking assistant. If they are "what is the Wi-Fi password" and "can I check out late", a guest messaging platform tied to your PMS answers more of them.
Check WhatsApp and OTA messages, not only web chat
Guests write on WhatsApp, Airbnb, Booking.com and email as often as on your website. HiJiffy includes WhatsApp campaigns on its Premium plan, Asksuite connects the official WhatsApp API, and Akia, Duve and Canary all put WhatsApp in a unified inbox. Rental tools such as HostBuddy AI and Hospitable reply inside Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com threads through the PMS or channel connection. Ask each vendor which channels the AI answers on its own and which only land in the shared inbox for staff.
Confirm the PMS connection before you sign
A chatbot that can read the reservation answers check-in, parking and late checkout questions for that exact guest. HiJiffy ties PMS integration to its Premium plan, Enso Connect includes onboarding and the PMS connection with no setup fee, and HostBuddy AI works through the property management system you already use. Canary, Akia and Duve list integrations with major hotel PMS platforms. Get the vendor to name your PMS in writing and say what data the AI can read.
Price the whole portfolio, including setup
Hotel chatbots are priced by rooms, units or properties rather than by seat. HiJiffy adds a setup fee for each 5 properties, Enso Connect has a 5 unit minimum, HostBuddy AI and Enso charge per property or unit, and Hospitable charges a base price plus a fee for each extra property. Multiply by your room or listing count, then compare against the quote-only vendors, which usually include onboarding and a customer success manager.
