The Problem

Invoicing Is Eating
Hours You Don't Have.

For most hotels, invoicing is a manual process. Someone on the team creates an invoice, checks the VAT rate, fills in the guest details, and sends it — for every single booking. At peak season, with dozens of bookings a day, this becomes a significant administrative burden. Mistakes happen. Invoices get delayed. Business guests waiting on documentation to submit expenses grow frustrated. And your accounting records are scattered across folders and email threads.

The Solution

Set It Up Once. Never Invoice Manually Again.

HotPilot generates a compliant VAT invoice automatically for every confirmed booking. Guest details are pulled directly from the reservation. VAT rates are applied correctly based on the service type and the guest's country. The invoice is sent to the guest automatically at the moment of booking confirmation or checkout — your choice. Your team never has to touch it.

Invoicing That Runs Itself.

01 VAT Compliance

Correct VAT Rates. Every Time. Automatically.

VAT rules for hospitality are more complex than they appear. Accommodation, F&B, city taxes, and ancillary services often carry different rates — and those rates vary between Bulgaria, Romania, Greece, and other markets. HotPilot applies the correct VAT treatment to each line item automatically, eliminating the risk of errors on invoices that go to business guests and corporate clients.

Invoices Delivered Before Guests Ask

Business guests and corporate bookers expect invoices promptly — often before they've even left the hotel. HotPilot sends invoices automatically at the trigger you define: on booking confirmation, at check-in, at checkout, or via a custom schedule. Guests who need documentation for expense reporting get it without having to ask. Your front desk gets one less task.
