A hostel sells two things at once: a bed in a shared room, and a room to itself. Most booking software understands only the second. Tribii models both on the same free booking engine.
What a hostel gets, free
FreeBed-level inventory, the booking engine, the rack and the guest record. Free forever for up to 30 beds.
Beds inside dorms
Give a dorm beds that sell individually, each with its own occupancy and price. Cots included.
One booking flow for beds and rooms
Dorm beds and private rooms on the same commission-free page, or embedded as a widget in your existing site.
Groups on one reservation
Beds pool across a booking, so a group spread over two dorms stays one folio.
Payments through your own account
Guests pay your Stripe account directly. No cut, no waiting on someone else's payout.
A multilingual site
A real hostel website with booking built in, in every language your guests speak.
Rates and availability
Price beds and rooms by date, close what is not selling. The whole house on one screen.
Running a hostel, and what Tribii does about it
01Inventory
Software sells rooms. You sell beds.
In Tribii a dorm is a room type with individual beds inside it, and each bed sells on its own. Beds pool across a booking, so a group taking six beds across two dorms is one reservation, not six.
Booking engine02The free tier
How much fits on the free plan?
Up to 30 beds, however they are arranged: eight dorms and four privates, or any other shape that adds up. No trial clock and no card on file to start.
PMS & operations03Commission
The hostel channels take a cut of every bed.
Booking through an agency costs 15 to 25% of the reservation. Your own booking page costs nothing per booking, ever. On Max the channel manager keeps the agencies in two-way sync so nothing collides.
Revenue04Groups and long stays
The interesting bookings are the awkward ones.
Groups splitting across dorms, guests extending week by week, someone moving from a dorm into a private. The rack shows the whole house, so a move is visible rather than remembered.
Guest CRM05Guests
Everyone who ever stayed is a stranger next time.
Guest profiles keep who stayed and how long, as your record rather than an agency's. That is what makes a returning traveller worth something: you can reach them directly next season.

What a hostel actually uses
The parts a hostel reaches for most, and what each one costs.
- Booking engineFreeDorm beds and private rooms on one commission-free page.
- PMS & operationsFree + MaxThe rack free: allocation, moves and extensions on one screen.
- WebsiteFreeA multilingual site, because a hostel's guests arrive speaking everything.

- Channel managerMaxTwo-way sync with the agencies on Max, so a bed is never sold twice.
That is the shortlist. The rest of the kit is built to fill rooms without paying for them: the Direct Booking Booster wins back abandoned bookings, AI search visibility puts you in front of guests asking an assistant where to stay, revenue tools price every date, and upsells and guest experiences lift what each stay is worth. Over 30 tools in all, 16 of them free.
