Has anyone had experience restricting same day bookings on Booking.com? I am getting batted back and forth between Hospitable and Booking. Both say the other is responsible for the restriction. Any help is appreciated.

Restrict same day on Booking.com

In Hospitable, go to [Property] > Availability > Booking Rules tab. Set “Advance Notice” to whatever you require. It should synchronize to Booking.com. On the Booking.com side, it gets reflected as a “minimum advance notice” setting on your rate plans (under Rates & Availability > Calendar) but by default you may not be able to see those settings on booking.com. (In the past, before I could control these settings via Hospitable, I had to open support tickets with booking.com to make these settings visible.)

+3I misspoke slightly… on the BDC side it’s called “Min. advance reservation” and this is what it looks like (1D means 1 day, as opposed to 4H for 4 hours, etc.).
Again though, you might not have permissions to see this level of detail on BDC. This is from an older listing where I had support enable it, but my newer listings don’t show this level of detail.
Thank you very much for the detailed answer and screenshots. Very helpful. Soooo much better than Hospitable support.
