Hostel management software for New Zealand
Busy arrivals, many short stays and a small team: NURISTAY keeps your hostel’s rooms, bookings and payments in one place.

What NURISTAY does for you
Online check-in
Guests confirm their details and sign on their own phone before they arrive, so the queue at the desk moves quickly.
Today at a glance
Arrivals, departures, unpaid bookings and rooms that are ready, on one screen.
Channel bookings come in by themselves
Booking.com, Expedia and SiteMinder emails become bookings, with changes and cancellations.
Payments you don’t chase
Automatic payment reminders with your invoice and bank details, payment links and deposits.
Housekeeping on the phone
Cleaners update room status as they go, and the desk sees which rooms are ready.
Guest IDs kept safe
ID and card photos from online check-in are encrypted and deleted 7 days after check-out.
Made for New Zealand
- NZ dollars, GST and tax invoices
- New Zealand public holidays and Pacific/Auckland time
- Payroll rules and IRD filing for your staff (Office Add-on)
- Your data stored in New Zealand

Can guests check in online?
Yes. You send a link, and guests confirm their details and sign on their phone. Their ID and card photos are encrypted and deleted 7 days after check-out.
Can I see who still has to pay?
Yes. The Today screen shows unpaid bookings, and NURISTAY sends payment reminders with your invoice and bank details by itself.
How much does NURISTAY cost?
Plans start from $99 a month + GST and go by number of rooms: Starter (1–10 rooms), Growth (11–20 rooms), Professional (21–30 rooms), Enterprise (31+ rooms – Custom pricing). Every feature is included; the Office Add-on (payroll, IRD filing and more) is extra. Your first month is free.
Do I need to install anything?
No. NURISTAY runs in the web browser on any computer, tablet or phone with internet. Add it to your home screen and it opens like an app. We set it up for you.
Does it work with Booking.com and Expedia?
Yes. Forward the booking emails from Booking.com, Expedia and SiteMinder, and NURISTAY makes the booking within minutes – changes and cancellations too.
