StayHubHome — Hotel & PG Booking Marketplace for India

Finding a hotel is easy. Finding a trustworthy PG is not. I built StayHubHome: one platform where travellers book hotels and students and professionals book PGs, while property owners manage everything from their own dashboard.

🏨 Overview

StayHubHome is a live booking marketplace for hotels mmodation) across India, at stayhubhome.in. It servesthree groups:
Guests search, compare and book hotels for overnight or day-use stays, or find a PG by gender, sharing type and budget.
Property owners list their hotel or PG for free prices and bookings from a partner dashboard.
The StayHubHome team reviews every property before it goes live and runs the whole marketplace from an admin panel.

🎯 The Challenge

Hotel and PG bookings in India are still largely offline: phone calls, WhatsApp messages and walk-ins. PGs are especially hard, because availability changes bed by bed, not room by ms only handle hotels.
The goal was one marketplace that:
Handles both hotels (booked by the night) and PGs (ed)
Lets guests pay online or pay at the property
Gives owners a simple way to list and manage their fee
Keeps quality high, with every listing and change reviewed before it goes live
Supports a commission model that works for both onlngs

🛠 What I Did

As lead full-stack developer, I designed and built St the database and payments to the guest-facing UI.
Hotel search and booking: Search by destination and day-use stays, filters for price, star rating,guest rating and pay-at-hotel, room options, add-ons, and a clear booking flow.
PG search and bed-level booking: PGs filtered b by sharing type (single, double, triple, dormitory).Availability is tracked per bed, so guests only see beds that are actually free.
Payments: Razorpay for online payments, plus a PDF invoices for every booking.
Partner dashboard: Owners list properties and manage rooms, individual PG beds, prices and bookings. Edits to a live listing go through a change-request flow, so nothing goes live u
Admin panel: Property approvals, change-request reviews, bookings, users, offers, travel packages and site settings, all in one place.
Commission system: Supports two pricing models: commission added on top of the owner's net rate, or taken from the final price. Pay-at-hotel bookings are tracked as commission owed
Guest features: Wishlists, reviews, offers and promo codes, and email notifications.
Security and roles: Role-based access for supernd receptionists, rate limiting, sanitised usercontent, and secure password reset by email.

🏆 The Outcome
