HERMES

Direct bookings for Greek hotels

Your hotel, your bookings, your guests.

A booking engine built for Greek independent hotels. Cut OTA commissions, sync with Booking.com when you need to, and keep every reservation in your own system — with a Greek-compliant ledger and an Apple-Calendar-friendly front desk.

  • Booking.com Standard-tier certification in progress
  • Greek AADE / myDATA invoicing built-in
  • No raw card data ever touches our servers (PCI SAQ-A)

Why HERMES

Not another OTA. A direct-booking engine that treats Greek hoteliers as the customer — not the inventory.

  • Cut commissions, keep relationships

    Every reservation through your own site lands directly in your ledger. No 15–25% siphon, no anonymized guest profiles.

  • OTAs become a channel, not your landlord

    We're certifying Booking.com Standard tier (Q3 2026), with Expedia and Trip.com next. Sync layer, not exclusivity.

  • Greek-compliant from day one

    AFM, AADE / myDATA via Elorus, Greek police arrivals card. No bolt-on integrations, no manual exports.

  • API-first, AI-friendly

    Every feature is a documented REST endpoint. Build your own booking site, dashboard, or AI concierge — or use ours.

  • Apple Calendar at the front desk

    For ≤10-room operators: two-way CalDAV sync to Apple Calendar. Your existing workflow, now backed by a real ledger.

  • Tokenized payments only

    Stripe for the EU, with Greek banks supported. Card numbers never reach our servers — PCI SAQ-A scope, full stop.

In certification

OTA sync — honest roadmap

Most platforms promise "all OTAs" on day one. We don't. We're certifying one channel at a time, the proper way — so when we say "synced" it actually is.

  1. 01 In certification

    Booking.com

    Q3 2026

    Two-way ARI sync. Standard-tier partner certification underway — production go-live targeted Q3 2026.

  2. 02 Planned

    Expedia

    Q4 2026

    Two-way availability + reservations via Expedia's channel API. Starts after Booking.com production cutover.

  3. 03 Planned

    Trip.com

    Q1 2027

    Captures the APAC long-tail. EU markets first; Trip.com follows once Booking + Expedia are stable in production.

We will publish a public certification status page once Booking.com Standard tier is signed off.

How it works

Three steps, no migration consultants.

  1. 1. Tell us about your property

    We onboard your rooms, rates, photos, and Greek tax details in a single session — or you can import them via our API.

  2. 2. We generate your booking site

    An AI-generated branded website with your photos, your rooms, your language. Or skip it and use our API + your own front-end.

  3. 3. Go live and connect channels

    Switch on direct bookings. Connect Booking.com when you're ready. Watch the ledger fill — and the OTA cut shrink.

Who it's for

Two consumption modes — pick yours.

For hotel owners

A turnkey direct-booking site

You don't want to think about Stripe, AADE, or OpenAPI specs. You want bookings on your own URL, a calendar that doesn't double-book, and a Greek-compliant ledger.

For developers & agencies

A public API for booking

Build your own consumer site, hotelier dashboard, or AI concierge. Our OpenAPI 3 spec + TypeScript SDK are first-class — not an afterthought.

Pilot pricing

We're onboarding our first 3 Greek pilot properties at zero monthly cost in exchange for feedback. After certification (Q3) we will publish standard pricing.

No setup fee. Per-property pricing. No commission on direct bookings, ever.
