MotoPress Hotel Booking

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

168 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 131 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

   I downloaded the Motopress Hotel Booking app from Google Store and installed it using an api generated from the Motopress plugin on my WP site. The resulting single-page view of my booking calander on my mobile phone has less detail than the booking calendar I can view from my mobile WP site. Also, dates blocked using the Booking Rules in the WP motopress plugin aren’t showing on the mobile single-page calandar app. BTW My main concern with using the Hotel booking plugin on my mobile is that the text fields require very small finger-tips to add booking rules, make or cancel booking reservations etc :). I was hoping the Mobile app downloaded from Google Store would solve this. However, it is still best to use a lap-top or desk-top computer screen to access your bookings. I should mention that we have been using Motopress Hotel Booking on our WP site for many years and find it perfect for our small accommodation business! (the one-star is only for the mobile booking app) It is just not well suited for use on a mobile phone. So, I am deleting the single-page Motopress Hotel Booking app from my phone and sticking to using the WP mobile app and WP site accessed from my desktop PC.

   I have been using the MotoPress Hotel Booking plugin for my luxury project, private Villa, and I am beyond impressed. The system is incredibly lightweight, pedantic in its organization, and extremely easy to work with, even for those who want a high-end, professional result without complicated coding. It handles everything from seasonal pricing to synchronized calendars perfectly. If you want a reliable and clean booking solution for your business, this is it. Five stars is the least I can give!

   I first came across this plugin about 6 years ago for a client project. After handing over the site, the client reached out just to tell me how much they loved its simplicity and ease of use. That experience actually inspired me to create a video tutorial about it on my channel. Fast forward to 2026, and this plugin is not only still here, but it’s much improved, incredibly stable with a mobile app in place too. It is clearly built and maintained by real humans who truly understand the hotel and booking business.

   I have been testing several solutions for my tourism and real estate projects, and MotoPress Hotel Booking is by far the most reliable one. The system is robust, easy to configure, and offers all the professional features needed for modern property management.​What impressed me the most is the efficiency of their team and the quality of the software. It handles everything seamlessly, from calendar sync to booking rules.

   I bought the full lifetime bundle and it was not cheap! Very sorry i did. Their support is unhelpful and rude, they basically just send through articles to read and don’t actually assist at all. The plugin itself is clumsy and overly complicated, simple things like auto sending of confirmation emails does not work in certain circumstances, the layout of the booking calendar and search and other elements are not editable and don’t look good unless you have the perfect theme, font size setting and do a lot of custom CSS. I bought this because of how bead the rating were of the official woo-commerce booking plugin, but it cannot be worse than this! very disappointed.

   Since version 4.8, the bug is in every new version. Customer requirements are only written down somewhere, but they are rarely applied.
