Little Hotelier scores F on Supergood's API Report Card. No customer-facing API. SiteMinder's own docs exclude Little Hotelier from the Exchange API, so ARI and reservation data have no sanctioned programmatic path. Integration happens through the curated App Store or by becoming a certified SiteMinder partner, a contract-heavy process that takes weeks.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly. Site terms may apply to any integration approach, and how they apply is a determination each team makes for itself.
Little Hotelier is an all-in-one cloud property management platform built for small accommodation providers (typically under 20 rooms). It is a wholly-owned product of SiteMinder Limited (ASX:SDR) and shares the parent's distribution backbone.
POS / Hospitality, specifically the small-and-independent accommodation sub-segment. A B&B owner with 8 rooms in the Cotswolds uses Little Hotelier daily as their operating hub.
Little Hotelier is a credible leader within the small-property / B&B PMS niche but not a category leader in hotel tech overall.
For a small-property operator that runs their front-desk, channel manager, direct-booking website, payments and guest messaging through Little Hotelier, the platform is the operational system of record.
Founded in 2012 in Sydney as a small-property spin-off of the SiteMinder distribution platform; acquired/absorbed fully into SiteMinder Limited (ASX:SDR, IPO November 2021).
Little Hotelier explicitly excluded from the SiteMinder Exchange API surface, partners cannot pull ARI or reservation data from Little Hotelier properties via the documented SMX API. No customer-facing public REST/JSON API and no self-serve API key issuance, integrations require joining the SiteMinder App Store partner program (manual application, contract, certification).

Supergood's grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? Supergood checks six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and rolls them into a letter grade. Supergood re-verifies grades, and they only move on evidence.
Yes, via a managed API layer. Supergood builds REST APIs and MCP servers for authenticated enterprise web apps, so AI agents and internal tools can read and write data programmatically. Site terms may apply to any integration approach, and how they apply is a determination each team makes for itself.
Not that we could find. As of August 2026 there is no official Little Hotelier MCP server in any public registry, and no maintained community server we're aware of. We re-verify this periodically — report an inaccuracy below if we missed one.
Not natively. Little Hotelier doesn't publish an MCP server, so MCP clients like Claude, Cursor, and Codex have nothing to connect to out of the box. If that changes, this page will reflect it.
