MiStay, a start-up offering hotel bookings by the hour, has teamed up with B2B hospitality distribution platform HyperGuest. This strategic collaboration will streamline operations by eliminating the need for multiple channel manager integrations. Consequently, it enables MiStay to efficiently scale its flexible hourly booking model through HyperGuest’s unified API.
Established in 2016, MiStay allows travelers to reserve rooms for specific time blocks with flexible check-in and check-out options. Moreover, the platform helps hotels optimize their revenue by enabling more efficient inventory management. Currently, MiStay partners with over 3,000 hotels across 90 cities in India, including prominent names such as Hyatt, Holiday Inn, and Lemon Tree.
“Our goal is to make distribution effortless for our hotel partners. Any property whose channel manager connects to HyperGuest now streams live inventory to MiStay automatically. The partnership removes friction and unlocks new hourly and day-use demand through the connection hotels already use,” said Sandeep Jaiswal, co-founder of MiStay.
By integrating with HyperGuest, MiStay gains access to a single, plug-and-play connection to over 150 channel managers and hotel tech providers globally, removing the need for individual integrations. Moreover, HyperGuest’s worldwide network of more than 40,000 hotels can now join the MiStay platform without the hassle of managing a separate extranet.
Prashant Menon, Director of Business Development at HyperGuest, said, “We are excited to welcome MiStay onboard with HyperGuest. The HyperGuest platform empowers travel buyers to connect with multiple hotel systems through a single API, streamlining access and distribution. We have been actively collaborating with hotels to expand their reach, and our partnership with MiStay will enable hotels to benefit from MiStay’s unique business model.”
The partnership between MiStay and HyperGuest marks a significant step forward in scaling flexible, hourly hotel bookings. Overall, by streamlining connectivity and significantly expanding access to a global hotel network, the integration not only enhances operational efficiency for hotels but also offers greater convenience and flexibility for travelers. As a result, MiStay is well-positioned for accelerated growth in the rapidly evolving hospitality landscape.
