In a world where big Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) dominate hotel bookings, one Indian startup is giving the power back to hoteliers.
Meet MyTravaly, the travel tech startup that’s helping over 10,000+ hoteliers worldwide grow their business—without relying on middlemen.
Founded by Hamlet Roy, MyTravaly has recently launched the Hotel Business Centre—a full-stack, plug-and-play platform that empowers hotels, resorts, homestays, hostels, and campsites to automate operations, increase occupancy, and drive direct bookings from multiple channels.
“We’re not just solving for bookings—we’re solving for independence,” says Hamlet Roy, CEO & Founder of MyTravaly. “The Hotel Business Centre gives hoteliers everything they need to run a modern, scalable, and profitable business—without depending on OTAs.”
🔍 The Problem: Too Much Commission, Too Little Control
For most small and mid-sized hotels, distribution comes at a steep cost. OTAs charge up to 30% in commission, cut into margins, and limit pricing flexibility. Hotel owners lose direct access to guest data and often struggle with manual operations, poor reviews, and underutilized inventory.
Hamlet Roy, who bootstrapped MyTravaly from scratch, saw the gap.
“Independent hoteliers were working hard, but the system wasn’t working for them. We decided to build tech that puts them back in control.”
🌐 The Solution: MyTravaly’s Hotel Business Centre
A true “business-in-a-box,” the Hotel Business Centre combines a booking engine, PMS, guest management tools, and smart analytics into a single dashboard. It allows hoteliers to:
- ✅ Accept direct bookings via website, mobile app, QR codes, and partner networks
- ✅ Automate everything from check-ins to checkouts and cancellations
- ✅ Track payments, guest data, reviews, and performance metrics in real time
- ✅ Reduce manual work and increase staff efficiency
- ✅ Reach up to 86% occupancy using MyTravaly’s multi-source booking strategy
- ✅ Operate in multiple currencies and languages, built for global scale
“Whether you run a beachside homestay in Goa or a heritage resort in Rajasthan, this tool is for you,” Hamlet says.
📊 Building Without Funding—And Winning Trust
Unlike many players in the travel tech space, MyTravaly is completely bootstrapped. The company has grown purely on product value, word of mouth, and deep partnerships with hoteliers.
With teams operating in India, Nepal, and Bangladesh, and plans to expand into Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, the company is poised for its next leap.
“We’ve built trust, not hype,” says Hamlet. “Our roadmap is focused on real growth, driven by real users.”
What’s Next?
In the pipeline: advanced guest personalization features, AI-powered pricing tools, reward-based loyalty programs, and community marketing campaigns to connect travelers with unique stays worldwide.
