Thesis Abstract

The project “Online Hotel Booking System” is a system based on accessing the internet to book for rooms in a hotel. The purpose of this study is to develop and implement an online hotel reservation system for hotels, that will replace the manual method of booking for hotel rooms. The previous system for booking rooms were faced with so many problems like, delay in processing the customer booking or paying for rooms that is below or beyond his standard, causes difficulty for emergency booking.

            The objects-oriented analysis and design methodology (OOADM) was therefore used to analyse the system in order to discover the various objects involved and how they interact with one another so that a new and improved system can be defined.

            The use of online view of room rates and uploading of available rooms and facilities was used for the new system so that the customer can view and make his choice before arrival, and also in the case of emergency travelling. This new system assisted the hotel owners in managing their hotels, because they can also regulate the receptionist moves and avoid fraudulent activities. It also increased the efficiency of the hotel managers and also their profit margin, once they have a better and good facilities.
