# The best restaurant and bar POS for boutique hotels.

Dinner and wine are part of the experience and a big share of revenue. The till must be quick, charge to room and keep wine stock right. Here is what to look for, and how Tivuzo does it as part of one back office.

**What is the best POS software for boutique hotels?**
The best restaurant and bar point of sale (POS) for boutique hotels covers tables and bills, split and transfer, charge to room, mobile money and card, stock out of the outlet store and offline selling, and handles what is specific to boutique hotels: tables and courses; wine by glass and bottle; charge to room; staff pins on a shared tablet. It should share one database with the rest of the back office so nothing is typed twice. Tivuzo includes it with the PMS, POS, procurement, stores and accounting for $13 per user per month.

## What boutique hotels need

Dinner and wine are part of the experience and a big share of revenue. The till must be quick, charge to room and keep wine stock right.

- Tables and courses
- Wine by glass and bottle
- Charge to room
- Staff PINs on a shared tablet

## The full checklist

Beyond the specifics above, any restaurant and bar point of sale (POS) for a boutique hotel should have:

| Must have | In Tivuzo |
|---|---|
| Tables, open bills, splits and transfers | ✓ |
| Charge to room onto the guest folio | ✓ |
| Cash, card, mobile money and split payments | ✓ |
| Staff pick their name and enter a PIN | ✓ |
| Each outlet takes stock from its own store | ✓ |
| Keeps selling when the internet drops | ✓ |
| Closing counts by payment method | ✓ |
| Shares data with the rest of the back office | ✓ One database: PMS, POS, procurement, stores, accounting |

## Why it should be part of one system

When the till is joined to the PMS and stores, charge to room lands on the folio, sales take stock out of the outlet's store and revenue posts by outlet and payment method. Read [one system vs separate systems](https://www.tivuzo.com/compare/one-system-vs-separate-pms-and-accounting/).

## What it costs a boutique hotel

At a typical boutique hotel the people who log in are the GM, two front office, F&B and a bookkeeper: 5 users, $65 a month or $624 a year, with every module included. See [pricing](https://www.tivuzo.com/pricing/).

## Restaurant and bar POS for boutique hotels: questions

### Can a boutique hotel restaurant sell wine by the glass?

Yes. Set the glass as a measure of the bottle so both sales come out of the same stock.

### Is POS included in Tivuzo's price?

Yes. Every module is included for $13 per user per month; there are no add-ons and no fees per room.

### Does Tivuzo work for small boutique hotels?

Yes. A boutique hotel pays only for the people who log in; switch on modules as you need them.

### Does Tivuzo work with weak internet?

The restaurant and bar tills sell offline and sync later; the rest needs a connection, and light use works on mobile data.

### What does Tivuzo not do yet?

No live channel manager, booking engine, door-lock integration, payroll or country e-invoicing links.
