Everything included

Everything a hotel needs, in one place

No add-on modules or per-user fees. Every plan includes the full system.

Live room grid

See every room at a glance — occupied, free, checking out or being cleaned.

Fast check-in

Returning guests are recognised by phone number, so their details fill in automatically.

Calendar & reservations

Take advance bookings and see the weeks ahead. The system blocks double bookings.

Extend & check out

Extend stays, check out early, or clear all overdue rooms in one tap.

Housekeeping & maintenance

Mark rooms for cleaning or repair so nobody gets sent to a room that isn't ready.

Guest receipts

Print a professional receipt or email it to the guest straight away.

Built for here

Made for how hotels in Ethiopia really work

Not foreign software that needs adapting. JHotels is built around nightly rates, walk-in guests, Birr and patchy internet.

Prices in Birr

Rates, receipts and reports in ETB by default. Other currencies are available for hotels that need them.

Your language

This website is available in Somali, Amharic, Afaan Oromo and English.

Ready for slow networks

Light pages that load fast on 3G, and offline mode for when the network drops.

Ethiopian phone numbers

Ethio telecom and Safaricom numbers (09… / 07…) are understood everywhere, as are guests from Somalia, Djibouti and Kenya.

Local time

Check-in, check-out and daily reports follow East Africa Time.

Local support

Support from SomICT in your language, on WhatsApp, phone or email.
