Connect HotSoft to Smart Locks with Inlet

Certified

HotSoft PMS from Planet is a property management system designed for hotels and hospitality businesses. Originally developed by Hoist Group and now part of Planet’s hospitality technology platform, HotSoft helps hotels manage reservations, front desk operations, guest services, housekeeping, reporting, and financial workflows from one system.

Used by independent hotels, hotel groups, resorts, hostels, and other hospitality operators, HotSoft supports the daily operations that keep a property running smoothly—from booking and check-in to check-out and reporting. Planet’s own customer stories highlight HotSoft as a scalable PMS used across multi-property hotel operations, with modules and integrations that help streamline processes from booking to check-out.
