Cloudbeds and Sabre Hospitality Announce Strategic Partnership to Streamline Hotel Reservations and Optimize Distribution

San Diego, CA, February 25, 2025– Cloudbeds, the innovative leader in hospitality management technology, has today announced a strategic partnership with Sabre Hospitality, a leading global travel technology company. This collaboration delivers a deeper integration between Cloudbeds Property Management System (PMS) and Sabre’s SynXis® Central Reservation System (CRS), offering hotels and accommodation providers a seamless and efficient solution for managing distribution, reservations, and property operations.

The partnership introduces a real-time, enhanced two-way connection between Sabre’s CRS and the Cloudbeds PMS, enabling hotels to streamline their operations, optimize distribution strategies, and improve data accuracy. The Application Programming Interface (API) integration will allow for a faster, more reliable flow of data between the two platforms, providing hoteliers with a robust and scalable solution to better manage their properties in today’s highly competitive marketplace.

Key benefits of the partnership:

• Bi-directional data exchange: Utilizing advanced API communication, the integration enables real-time two-way synchronization of inventory, rates, and reservations. This ensures that any updates made in either system are immediately reflected across all distribution channels, reducing discrepancies and eliminating manual intervention.
• Automated inventory and rate management: The integration empowers hotels with dynamic rate and availability updates, automatically distributing changes made in the Cloudbeds PMS to all channels through the Sabre CRS. Hotels can now manage their pricing strategies more effectively, using real-time data to capitalize on demand fluctuations while ensuring full inventory exposure across global distribution channels.
• Unified reservations handling: The enhanced connection facilitates seamless booking updates between Cloudbeds and the Sabre CRS, ensuring that every reservation – whether from OTAs, direct bookings, or GDS – is immediately logged in the Cloudbeds PMS. This automated reservations pipeline minimizes the risk of overbookings, missed updates, and guest data inconsistencies, driving operational efficiency across departments.
• Optimized global distribution: Cloudbeds properties gain immediate access to Sabre Hospitality’s distribution channels, which include a booking engine, travel management companies, GDS Distribution, and 600+ OTAs. With the enhanced CRS-PMS connection, hotels can manage distribution across multiple channels from a single, consolidated platform, significantly simplifying channel management and maximizing exposure.

With the integration of Cloudbeds PMS and Sabre’s CRS, hoteliers can expect enhanced guest service delivery. The seamless flow of booking data ensures that front-office teams have access to the most up-to-date reservation and guest information, allowing for personalized guest interactions and faster check-in/check-out processes.

Additionally, back-office teams benefit from streamlined operations as manual data entry is significantly reduced, allowing staff to focus on higher-value activities such as revenue optimization and guest engagement.

“This partnership between Sabre Hospitality and Cloudbeds will bring valuable benefits to Cloudbeds customers,” said Ron Reed, Head of Strategic Partnerships, Sabre Hospitality. “By deepening the integration between our CRS and Cloudbeds PMS, we are helping hotels to unlock new efficiencies and revenue opportunities, while also improving the overall guest experience.”

“The real-time data synchronization and enhanced global distribution capabilities provide our customers with powerful tools to increase their profitability and streamline their operations,” added Sebastien Leitner, VP of Partnerships at Cloudbeds. “We are excited to collaborate with Sabre Hospitality on delivering a fully integrated solution that empowers hoteliers to stay competitive and agile in a rapidly changing market.”

The enhanced Cloudbeds-Sabre Hospitality integration is set to go live in Q1 2025, and will be available to all joint customers. Hotels currently using Cloudbeds and Sabre Hospitality will benefit from seamless onboarding, with full technical support to guide customers through the implementation process.
