Connecting Reconline CIH to Guesty

You can link your complex listings to Reconline CIH and manage them directly in Guesty. Once linked, the listings’ rates, availability, and inventory (ARI) will be synced across the platforms. 

Creating listings on Guesty and then publishing them to Reconline CIH isn’t supported. You can only connect (“link”) your existing listings in Guesty to their matching existing listings in Reconline CIH. Reconline CIH supports only complexes. After finishing the setup, track each listing’s connection status and rate plans mapping.

Only ARI and the reservation details will be synced between Guesty and Reconline CIH. Any additional content (additional fees, amenities, listing description, etc.) will not be synced between the platforms and should be managed on Reconline CIH. Also, only the following rate plan components will be synced to Reconline CIH: base-price adjustment, minimum and maximum number of nights. Therefore, define all the other rate plan settings (including cancellation policies) on Reconline CIH. Learn where you should manage your listings, reservations, and guest communication after connecting to Reconline CIH.

Before you begin

You must have a Reconline CIH account before initiating the setup.
After creating the account on Reconline CIH, reach out to your Reconline CIH account manager or Reconline CIH support, and request them to connect the relevant Hotel IDs to the Guesty/YieldPlanet provider.

Also, ask the account manager/support team to confirm your login and password credentials to establish an API integration between Guesty/Yieldplanet and Reconline CIH. Please note that these credentials may differ from the login and password you use to access your Reconline CIH dashboard.

We recommend unlisting/stopping selling your rate plans on Reconline CIH until the connection process is completed to avoid double bookings and other reservation syncing issues.
