Price
Cheapest hotel software in Nigeria
The cheapest genuinely complete option is our Basic plan at ₦5,000 per month — ₦49,800 a year, about ₦4,150 per month. Nothing else in the market is priced flat like this: per-room platforms charge a fee for every room you own, and per-property platforms charge for every branch you open.
| Plan | Monthly | Yearly | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | ₦5,000/mo | ₦49,800/yr (₦4,150/mo) | Up to 20 rooms, 1 property |

Local fit
Built for how Nigeria hotels actually run
- check_circle Naira billing: you pay ₦5,000/month, not a dollar price that moves with the exchange rate.
- check_circle Local rails: Paystack, Nomba, OPay, Monnify and Flutterwave are wired in — plus bank-transfer proof upload and USSD-friendly flows for guests who do not use cards.
- check_circle Power and network reality: the LodgeStatus desktop app keeps working when NEPA takes the light or the network drops, then syncs when you are back online.
- check_circle WhatsApp-first guests: booking confirmations, check-out receipts, and the daily audit report go out on WhatsApp, where your guests already are.
- check_circle Cash-pilferage control: every walk-in, bar sale, and room night is stamped with the staff member who posted it, so shift shortages show up as numbers, not arguments.
- check_circle Owner visibility from anywhere: switch between properties in one click, so an owner in Lagos can see how the Abuja or Port Harcourt property is trading right now.
Why owners switch
The daily leaks, and what stops them
Bar and restaurant bottles disappear faster than the sales sheet says.
The POS tracks stock in purchase batches (FIFO), so you see true gain per drink, not just revenue.
Double bookings happen because the paper book and the phone call do not agree.
Walk-ins, phone reservations, website bookings, and QR orders share one live calendar.
Shift handover is a verbal story with no numbers behind it.
A daily 10pm audit report lands on WhatsApp with occupancy, cash collected, and low-stock alerts.
The network drops and the front desk stops entirely.
Offline desktop mode keeps check-ins, check-outs, and room charges working through the downtime.
Nobody knows what the restaurant actually earned after cost.
Cost-versus-selling-versus-profit reporting per selling point, product, and staff member.
Payments
Payments your guests in Nigeria actually use
Money settles into your own merchant or bank account. LodgeStatus never holds your funds and never takes a percentage of a booking.

Offline reliability
Nigeria means load shedding and mobile-data gaps. The LodgeStatus desktop app (macOS, Windows, Linux) runs the front desk locally and syncs to the cloud when connectivity returns, so a bad network does not stop check-ins, folio charges, or POS sales.
Benchmarks
How much hotel software costs in Nigeria
What the rest of the market charges Nigeria hotels, and the pricing model behind each figure. Publicly listed price cards, reviewed September 2026.
Dollar-priced global PMS
From $5–$30+ per month, often per room or per property
Pricing is set in USD, so your naira cost moves with the exchange rate and the renewal-day FX spread.
Per-room PMS pricing
$7.99–$17.99 per room / month (public price cards, Sep 2026)
A 40-room Nigerian hotel on $7.99/room is about $320/month — roughly ₦500,000 — versus ₦5,000/month flat.
Locally-sold PMS packages
Quote-based, usually with a setup or training fee
You cannot see the price until you sit through a sales meeting, and the quote usually scales with your room count.
Enterprise chain PMS
≈$700/month list before implementation
Built for 100+ room international flagships: consultants, three-to-six-month rollouts, and annual contracts.
Excel sheet + reception notebook

Free — until the first unrecorded room night, missing bar bottle, or double booking costs more than a year of software.

Hotel software questions from Nigeria
What is the cheapest hotel software in Nigeria?
LodgeStatus Basic is ₦5,000 per month — ₦49,800 a year, about ₦4,150 per month — with no setup fee, no per-room pricing, and no commission on direct bookings. Most Nigerian hotels run their whole operation on Standard at ₦10,000 per month.
Which hotel software in Nigeria accepts Paystack?
LodgeStatus has Paystack built in alongside Nomba, OPay, Monnify and Flutterwave, plus bank-transfer proof upload and cash with shift reconciliation, so you are not locked to one gateway.
Is there hotel software that works without internet in Nigeria?
Yes. The LodgeStatus desktop app runs the front desk locally — check-ins, check-outs, folio charges and POS sales — and syncs when your connection returns, so load shedding does not stop operations.
How much does hotel management software cost in Nigeria?
Flat-rate platforms charge one monthly fee: LodgeStatus starts at ₦5,000/month for up to 20 rooms. Per-room platforms are priced in dollars at $7.99–$17.99 per room per month, which is over ₦500,000 a month for a 40-room hotel.
Is LodgeStatus easy for reception staff to learn?
It is built for a phone-first front desk: check a guest in, post a room charge, and check out in a few taps. Most teams are running live the same day, and WhatsApp and QR ordering need no training because guests already use them.
Does the price go up when I add rooms or staff?
No. Plans are banded by rooms and staff headcount — Basic up to 20 rooms, Standard up to 60 rooms — so adding a room inside your band does not change your bill.
Can I manage more than one hotel from one login?
Yes. Create as many properties as you need under a master login. Each property has 100% isolated data — separate rooms, calendars, staff, POS menus and financial reports — and you switch between them in one click without logging out.
Can guests pay the hotel directly instead of through the platform?
Yes. Payments settle into your own Paystack, Nomba, OPay, Monnify or Flutterwave account. LodgeStatus never holds your money and never takes a percentage of a booking.
Do you provide receipts and invoices for corporate guests?
Every sale and stay produces a printable receipt and a naira invoice you can hand to a guest or attach to a corporate account, and platform subscription invoices are issued to the hotel for your records.
What do I need before starting the 30-day free trial?
Just your hotel name, room list, and rates — type or import them in minutes. Nothing is charged during the trial, and the free booking website you set up stays yours.
