innRoad pricing and cost, what a small hotel, inn or B&B pays per year
innRoad pricing is quote based, but third-party sources put it at about $10 per room per month with a $150 monthly minimum for the core PMS. A 10-room inn pays about $1,800 a year, and a 30-room hotel $4,200 to $5,400 a year once channel management and online check-in are added. Plans run month to month with no long-term contract.
How much does innRoad cost?
innRoad costs about $10 per room per month with a $150 minimum, according to HotelMinder and RoomMaster's innRoad pricing breakdown, and innRoad's own pricing page says the core PMS "typically falls around $150 per month for most properties". The core plan includes the PMS, the booking engine, full data migration, an implementation advisor, lifetime training and 24/7 phone support.
Channel management, online check-in, the website builder, Google booking links, revenue management and payment processing are sold as separate products. That is where quotes grow: RoomMaster estimates $350 to $450 a month for a 30-room property with distribution and check-in. To compare against a PMS with the channel manager inside the plan price, open our live demo and put both numbers side by side.

innRoad prices reported by property size
innRoad does not publish a price list, so these figures come from directories and a competitor's pricing study. Treat them as a starting point for your quote.
| Cost item | Figure | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Core PMS | about $10 per room a month | HotelMinder, RoomMaster |
| Monthly minimum | $150, which covers up to 15 rooms | HotelMinder, RoomMaster |
| Typical core price | around $150 a month for most properties | innRoad pricing page |
| 12-room B&B or inn | about $150 a month | RoomMaster |
| 30-room hotel with channel management and online check-in | $350 to $450 a month before payments | RoomMaster |
| 80-room hotel with distribution, check-in and website | $900 to $1,100 a month before payments | RoomMaster |
| Setup and migration | Included in the core plan | innRoad pricing page |
| Contract | Month to month, cancel anytime | innRoad pricing page |
The module estimates come from a rival vendor, so ask innRoad to confirm them in writing for your room count.
Yearly cost example for six property sizes
Below is innRoad's reported core price per year next to Innkeeper's public prices. For 30 and 80 rooms, the innRoad row also shows the range with modules from RoomMaster's estimate. Card processing is left out of both columns, since every PMS that takes cards charges it.
| Property | innRoad, per year | Innkeeper, per year paid monthly | Innkeeper, per year paid yearly |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8-room B&B | $1,800 core (the $150 minimum) | $588 on Inn | $490 on Inn |
| 12-room inn | $1,800 core | $1,788 on Hotel | $1,490 on Hotel |
| 20-room inn | $2,400 core | $1,788 on Hotel | $1,490 on Hotel |
| 30-room hotel | $3,600 core, $4,200 to $5,400 with modules | $1,788 on Hotel | $1,490 on Hotel |
| 50-room hotel | $6,000 core | $5,988 on Boutique | $4,990 on Boutique |
| 80-room hotel | $9,600 core, $10,800 to $13,200 with modules | $5,988 on Boutique | $4,990 on Boutique |
The honest read: at 12 rooms and at 50 rooms the innRoad core price and Innkeeper's monthly plan are almost the same, and innRoad's core includes 24/7 phone support and full migration. The gap opens at the small end, where the $150 minimum costs an 8-room B&B about $1,200 to $1,300 more a year, and in the middle, where a 30-room hotel with channel management pays roughly $2,400 to $3,900 more a year.

The channel manager line
If you sell rooms on Booking.com, Expedia or Airbnb, you need channel management to keep availability in sync. With innRoad it is a separate product, so ask for its monthly price at your room count and the number of OTAs you connect, and ask whether any OTA connection carries its own fee. RoomMaster's study notes that some OTA integrations can trigger extra charges.
Payments and the books
Card processing runs under its own merchant agreement, billed per transaction. OTA payouts and card settlements reach your bank as lump sums, while supplier bills for linen, breakfast food and repairs pile up as paper. Many innkeepers scan their receipts and supplier invoices into a spreadsheet each week, so the PMS fee, processing and operating costs sit in one ledger and the true cost of the system is visible as a share of room revenue.
Minimum billing at a small property
The $150 floor means a 5-room B&B pays for 15 rooms. If you plan to stay small, ask whether innRoad can price your property below the minimum, and compare the answer with a plan built for 10 rooms.
Growth and seasonal rooms
Because innRoad prices per room, adding cottages or a new wing raises the bill line by line. Ask whether rooms closed for winter count all year, and get the price at the room count you expect in two years.

Our guide on how to choose a PMS for a small hotel lists twelve vendor questions and what a good answer sounds like.
When one plan price beats a modular quote
innRoad is a good fit for inns that value 24/7 phone support, want migration handled for them, or already use partner tools such as M3 or Inn-Flow accounting. At around 12 or 50 rooms its core price is competitive.
For an owner-run hotel, inn or B&B under 80 rooms that sells on OTAs and wants to know the full bill up front, a single plan price is simpler. Innkeeper lists every plan on its hotel PMS pricing page: Inn at $49 a month for up to 10 rooms, Hotel at $149 for up to 30 rooms and Boutique at $499 for up to 80 rooms, with the channel manager software, booking engine, invoices and housekeeping board included and no setup fee, no booking commission and no contract. Our innRoad alternative page compares the two feature by feature and shows how to move your reservations in four steps.
