The French alternative to Lodgify, with installation included
Everything Lodgify does, channel manager, direct site, booking engine, but built in France and installed for you.
Support from a team based in France, 60+ OTAs connected.
Why look for a French alternative to Lodgify?
Lodgify is solid software (4.8/5 on Trustpilot, 60+ OTAs connected). But for an owner of 1 to 10 properties in France, two limits weigh:
- →The tool and its support come from outside France. The interface is translated, but support, documentation and new features come out in English first. For an urgent problem, relying on a team that doesn't work from your market can be costly.
- →All the setup is up to you. The website builder is powerful but takes hours of design. OTA connections, payment, pricing rules: everything has to be built by you. Lodgify does include an onboarding call with a specialist from the Starter plan, but a call is not an installation: you are the one clicking during and after.
- →The entry plan doesn't do direct booking. The Basic plan at €15.75/month is limited to 1 property and doesn't include the site builder. To get a direct booking site, you have to move up to Starter (€28.35/month, 2 properties maximum), then to Professional (€43.87/month for 1 property, €87.78 for 3) as soon as your portfolio grows.
BedLink offers the same functional coverage, built in France, with installation included in the subscription.

BedLink vs Lodgify: your questions
Why look for a Lodgify alternative?
Lodgify is powerful, well-rated software (4.8/5 on Trustpilot), but it has two important limits for the French market: (1) it was built in English first, so support and interface are translated rather than native, (2) setup stays entirely your job: count on 20 to 40 hours of configuration before the first sync. BedLink offers the same functional coverage, built in France, with installation included.
What is the difference between Lodgify and BedLink?
Lodgify is an international all-in-one SaaS (channel manager + website + booking engine), with 60+ channels. You configure everything yourself. BedLink covers the same functional scope but as a full service: we install, configure and maintain it for you. Support comes from a team in France.
Lodgify is much cheaper to start with: is it really comparable?
Prices checked on August 17, 2026 on the official price list in euros, billed monthly. Lodgify starts at €15.75/month with the Basic plan, limited to 1 property and with no site builder. The Starter plan is €28.35/month and caps at 2 properties. The plan that is actually comparable to BedLink, Professional, is €43.87/month for 1 property and €87.78/month for 3, with no installation done for you. Worth noting: the 1.9% fee on direct bookings that Lodgify used to charge is gone, and all plans now show 0% booking fees.
Is the Lodgify direct booking site just as good?
Lodgify has an excellent website builder with customizable templates. BedLink offers a direct site that is preconfigured and deployed for you, connected to Stripe, with 0% commission. The difference is in the experience: Lodgify gives you the bricks, BedLink builds the house.
How many OTA channels does BedLink connect?
Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, Expedia, and 60+ other platforms. Coverage comparable to Lodgify on the OTAs that matter for France. If a specific channel is missing for your case, we add it during installation.
Is BedLink suited to a portfolio of several dozen properties?
BedLink is optimized for owners and property managers with 1 to 10 properties. Beyond that, more "pro"-oriented solutions such as Lodgify Ultimate or Hostaway may fit better. We will tell you so honestly on the discovery call.
When should I still choose Lodgify over BedLink?
If you manage more than 15 properties, if you are comfortable in English and technically independent, or if you want a highly customizable website builder that you design yourself: Lodgify is an excellent choice. BedLink makes sense for owners who want a full service, from a team in France, without having to deal with the technical side.
Can I migrate my Lodgify account to BedLink?
Yes. We take your existing settings (listings, calendars, rates), move them onto our infrastructure and sync with no interruption. No bookings are lost.
Switching from Lodgify to BedLink?
We take over your existing setup, move your site across and sync with no interruption. A 30-minute call to assess, a tailored quote, and setup within 5 days.
