HostelMate MCP server
Ask Claude or ChatGPT about your hostel: who checks in today, who still owes money, what you made last month. The HostelMate MCP server connects the HostelMate hostel management software to AI assistants over the Model Context Protocol. It is read-only and signs in with your own HostelMate login.
- Server address:
https://mcp.hostelmate.co/mcp(Streamable HTTP, OAuth sign-in) - Claude: listed in Claude's connector directory: HostelMate in Claude
- Official MCP Registry:
io.github.hostelmate/hostelmate - Product page: hostelmate.co/app/mcp
- Setup guide: docs.hostelmate.co/connect-claude-chatgpt
What you can ask
| Area | Example questions |
|---|---|
| Front desk | Who checks in today? Who arrives and who leaves today? |
| Bookings | Show me this week's Booking.com bookings. Is anything double-booked this weekend? |
| Payments and revenue | How much has Maria paid? What did we make last month? Daily revenue since 1 September. |
| Properties | List my properties. |
Revenue answers are for managers, and they aren't part of the Lite plan. If you run more than one hostel, name the property in your question.

Other MCP clients: add a remote server with the address above; the client opens HostelMate's sign-in page.
What the assistant can and can't see
- Read-only. It can look things up, but it can't create, change or cancel a booking, a payment or anything else.
- Your own permissions. It signs in as you, so it sees what you see in HostelMate.
- Guest details stay out. Guest phone numbers, emails, passports and card details are never shared with the assistant.
- Your password stays with HostelMate. The assistant never sees it.
- 20 days at a time. You stay connected for 20 days, then sign in again. Remove HostelMate in your connector settings to disconnect sooner.
