Stuba integration on ReservationHub

Stuba is an accommodation-only B2B hotel wholesaler formed in 2018 when the bedbanks getabed (trading since 1991) and roomsXML (since 2007) merged. Its commercial headquarters was set up in Dubai, with operational offices in the UK, India, Australia and the USA. It supplies curated hotels to travel agents through its website and APIs.

About Stuba

Stuba traces its history to getabed, which began in 1991 selling Florida hotels to UK agents by phone and fax and which Stuba describes as the UK's first B2B bedbank. In April 2018 getabed merged with roomsXML, an online accommodation wholesaler, and the combined business launched the Stuba brand at Arabian Travel Market in Dubai.

Stuba focuses only on accommodation. Rather than competing on the size of its hotel list, it promotes a curated "Stuba Collection" and themed selections such as beach, luxury, city and family hotels. It states that it obtains a hotel confirmation number for every booking, which helps agents avoid problems at check-in. In 2025 it won Travel Weekly's Globe Award for best accommodation-only provider.

For system connections, Stuba's developer portal documents a hotel API (HAPI) and a Content API. They cover availability search by region, hotel or multiple hotels, a two-step prepare and confirm booking flow, booking queries, cancellation and confirmation-number lookups, plus content calls for countries, regions and hotel details. Agencies using several suppliers should plan for hotel content mapping.

Stuba integration: FAQ

Does ReservationHub integrate with Stuba?
Yes. Stuba is one of the pre-built hotel supplier connections listed on the ReservationHub partners page. Once your Stuba API credentials are added, its hotels appear in the same search as your other suppliers.
Do I need my own Stuba contract?
Yes. You register with Stuba and obtain API access under your own agreement. ReservationHub does not supply Stuba accounts or rates. Hotel supplier connections count towards plan limits: one on Basic, two on Standard and unlimited on Premium.
What can I sell through Stuba?
Stuba sells accommodation only: hotels worldwide, including its curated Stuba Collection, and apartments. It does not position itself as a flight, transfer or activity supplier. Availability and markets depend on your own Stuba agreement.
Are getabed and roomsXML now Stuba?
Yes. The two bedbanks merged in April 2018 and announced Stuba as their combined brand. Both names were kept in their markets for a transition period, with the plan to phase them out in favour of Stuba.
