A small team in Kathmandu, building for hotels.

How it started

It began with a day close that took a morning.

We spent a season sitting behind reception desks in Kathmandu and Pokhara, watching how the work actually gets done. Good hotels, run by careful people, spending their mornings making four different systems agree with each other.

Almost everything in Tathyastra traces back to one of those mornings. The drawer that would not balance. The rate that reached a travel site a day late. The bill a guest asked about at checkout that nobody could explain without opening a spreadsheet.

So we built one system where a booking, a bill, a payment and a listing are the same set of facts seen from different desks, and gave it the tax rules, the currencies and the cash habits that hotels here actually use.

Working with us

A few properties at a time, done properly.

We take on a small number of hotels at once so each one gets a real setup: your rate sheet gone through line by line, your travel sites matched room by room, and somebody of ours on the phone for your first day close.

After that we stay in touch. When you tell us something is awkward, it tends to turn up fixed a few weeks later, because a hotel telling us how the work really goes is the most useful thing that happens to us all month.
