In the hospitality industry, hotel ID mapping refers to the process of linking or matching different identifiers (IDs) used by various systems or platforms to refer to the same hotel. These systems can include booking engines, online travel agencies (OTAs),
property management systems (PMS), and global distribution systems (GDS).
Why Hotel ID Mapping Matters:
1 - Consistency: Ensures that the hotel’s information (such as room types, rates, availability, etc.) is accurate and consistent across multiple platforms.
2 - Efficiency: Helps reduce the risk of errors or double-bookings, as all systems are synchronized.
3 - Integration: Allows different systems (e.g., PMS, OTAs, GDS) to seamlessly communicate with each other, ensuring that data like booking details and availability is always up to date.
Using Natural Language Processing (NLP), Hotel-matching understands what it is mapping, ensuring deep in-context precision.
It accurately extracts information from the name & address, mapping the hotel or vacation rental chain and brand,
type, category and class, along with features such as view, nearby POI, city, amenities...
On demand & at will.
Processes your data directly, utilizing your unique data stream without relying on any cached information.
From scratch build.
Creates a comprehensive mapped ID table encompassing all sources, assigning custom IDs.
Extended inventory.
Identifies and qualifies the vast majority of entries with high accuracy, flagging less than 1% for manual review.
Peace of mind.
Having a human-like comprehension, it accurately interprets the data for precise and consistent results.
Your mapping response is tailored specifically to your needs, offering full customization.
Mapping can be performed on any data, regardless of its source (your own or from suppliers).
There are no limitations on the types of properties that can be mapped, including hotels and vacation rentals.
This process does not involve cached data on our side.
You have the flexibility to either send individual hotel geo-codes (name, address, gps) to the API at any time or upload your entire inventory for automated mapping.
Our advanced NLP AI boasts exceptional accuracy with over 99% coverage for hotels and rentals and an astonishing 99.99995% precision. To maintain this high level of accuracy, the AI carefully avoids making uncertain identifications.
This conservative approach results in only 0.5% of data remaining unmapped, significantly lower than the 30% typically seen with other providers.
The primary objective of our AI is to consistently deliver an error-free ID table.
Our in-house AI, leveraging Natural Language Processing, operates without a database (uploaded lists exepted).
This allows for fast processing of requests.
The AI provides comprehensive mapping for both IDs and content, with additional features for address-related information.
You can submit requests for an unlimited number of suppliers and hotels without any restrictions.
To ensure high accuracy, the mapper flags potentially ambiguous rows for manual post-checking (less than 1% of cases).
HM is agnostic on data and sources. It seamlessly maps any sources; yours, tour operators (TO), local destination management companies (DMC), online travel agencies (OTA), bed-banks, platforms & direct contracts.
You can either upload your lists or utilize our real-time mapping feature to only use the A.I. for mapping and build your inventory aggregation logic internally. (refer to the instructions for detailed guidance).
Missing the name, address, or GPS coordinates?
Our AI can still provide accurate results even with incomplete data. It will efficiently retrieve, correct, and normalize the geocodes for you. Check the postman instructions for use to know more.
When it comes to update an inventory, multiple workflows are available, giving you the flexibility to choose the tools that best suit your update preferences.
Experience automated processes with minimal effort, enabling faster and more efficient updates.
Platforms looking to offer an end-to-end solution without tier dependencies.
OTAs seeking to provide affiliates with a dedicated mapping table.
Startups that need to get started without committing to a yearly agreement.
Tech teams wanting direct access to mapping intelligence.
Bed-banks and B2B providers needing to aggregate listings on demand.
Anyone wanting to build and offer an ID table to customers.
Unlike traditional ML mapping models that rely solely on name and address as a single entry or a simple "distance" %, overlooking crucial differences,
hotel-matching, much like human cognition, understands the broader context.
This contextual awareness enables far more consistent and controlled mapping results.
Access hotel-matching through our API or by deploying it within your own instance.
Both hotel and room matching utilize the same powerful NLP engine, pre-installed for your convenience.
Experience seamless operation with our turnkey Docker containers for API, ID, and room matching, requiring minimal maintenance.
Using the same NLP technology as room-matching, it indiscriminately maps a hotel, rental & room name or description.

Effortlessly aggregate content from diverse sources by creating your own inventory with your own unique IDs.
Easily Aggregate suppliers content by selecting the one your prefer.
Extend your inventory way beyond OTA or aggregators.
Deploy the solution on your preferred infrastructure, including any cloud provider, on-premise instance, or custom setup.
Both hotel and room matching leverage the same powerful NLP engine, pre-installed for optimal integration.
Our hotel-matching service processes your lists of hotels directly. We do not require access to your supplier connections.
Submit a list of hotel, and receive the mapping results in either JSON or CSV format.
You can also initiate longer mapping jobs, such as building an inventory from scratch based on uploaded lists.
Track the progress of these jobs and receive notifications upon completion.
NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING
NLP is splitting an unstructured text into sortable data.
Our in house technology chunks a text into sections, scans terms, sorts out attributes.
It can be an hotel, rental or room name, a more complete text description, an html page or suppliers' API fields.
All usages: Static / 24H / hybrid / deferred / batch / on-the-fly / real-time.
Cost is based on volume.
In addition to offering mapping services, I can assist you in organizing and structuring your inventories, setting up database frameworks, applying fintech solutions, and automating price optimization within your system.
I’ll help you maximize the value of your suppliers' content and tech partners.
