Summary/Abstract: Among the key prerequisites for a successful implementation of management practices in the hospitality industry belong, without any question, hotel information systems that provide relevant data for the control and both strategic as well as tactical decisions. Modern information systems have become a regular feature of the most accommodation facilities. The basic functions of the hotel management systems include collection, preservation and processing of data, data analysis and subsequent implementation of specific procedures. Czech market offers a range of hotel systems, which vary in terms of cost, royalties, services, functions, available modules, available interfaces and other characteristics. The aim of the submitted paper is to evaluate the current status of the implementation of hotel management and supporting systems used in practice by Czech accommodation facilities. The emphasis will be put on the analysis of regional representation of hotel management systems as well as the application of information systems in the context of the management of cost and capacity in advance. The methodological approach to solution-seeking is based on the results of a survey of more than a hundred of hotel facilities in the Czech Republic.
