Memory, cores and disk can all be raised on the same server later, usually within the hour, with no rebuild and no new IP address — so starting one size below the estimate is normally the cheaper mistake.
Which tiers suit Hotels & Hospitality Businesses
Including the ones that do not, and why — that is usually the more useful half.
| Infrastructure | Verdict | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Shared Hosting Managed space on a shared server | Workable | Workable for a single small property or practice, though a shared database is the first thing to strain when bookings cluster. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Recommended | A VPS handles a booking engine and its database comfortably, with predictable performance when enquiries spike. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Recommended | Pinned resources matter here: a reservation that times out at the payment step is a booking you never see. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Workable | Right once you are running several properties, or a property management system alongside the public site. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Not this one | Reservation workloads are database-bound rather than compute-bound, so the extra physical capacity goes unused. |
Hotels & Hospitality Businesses workloads you can host

Hospitality & Hotels in Bedford, business by business
These are not the same workload. Sized at the medium band, here is what each one actually needs.
| Business | Build | Tier | What decides it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hotels | 1 vCPU · 8 GB · 80 GB | VPS | The PMS is the system of record and the channel manager talks to it constantly — a stale rate pushed to an OTA... |
| Resorts | 1 vCPU · 16 GB · 300 GB | VPS | A resort sells a stay plus everything inside it, so the booking system carries far more than rooms. |
| Motels | 1 vCPU · 6 GB · 80 GB | VPS | Short stays booked at short notice: high turnover of small records rather than a large database. |
| Boutique Hotels | 1 vCPU · 8 GB · 80 GB | VPS | The whole point is winning the direct booking rather than paying commission, so the site itself is the revenue... |
| Hostels | 1 vCPU · 6 GB · 80 GB | VPS | Inventory is a bed rather than a room, which multiplies the rows and makes availability a harder question to a... |
| Bed & Breakfasts | 1 vCPU · 4 GB · 60 GB | Shared Hosting | A handful of rooms and a personal calendar — the smallest infrastructure in hospitality. |
| Vacation Rentals | 1 vCPU · 12 GB · 80 GB | VPS | Every property is its own calendar and every channel wants to be authoritative — reconciliation is the workloa... |
| Serviced Apartments | 1 vCPU · 10 GB · 80 GB | VPS | Stays are measured in months, so this looks more like tenancy management than nightly booking. |
| Campgrounds | 1 vCPU · 6 GB · 80 GB | VPS | Severely seasonal: a year's bookings can arrive in the fortnight the summer calendar opens. |
| RV Parks | 1 vCPU · 6 GB · 80 GB | VPS | Availability depends on whether the rig physically fits the pitch, so the booking rules are geometry as well a... |
| Hotel Management Companies | 2 vCPU · 32 GB · 150 GB | VDS | Running many properties turns reporting into the heavy query — every figure is an aggregate across the estate. |
| Property Management Systems | 4 vCPU · 48 GB · 300 GB | VDS | The night audit is a hard nightly deadline that touches every open folio at once. |
