About Budget Host Inns & Hotels Stafford

A chain of hotels and Inns located in more than 37 states in America - Budget Host remains to be one of the top names in the hospitality industry in terms of high standards and value for your money. A company founded in 1975, the hotel and inn brand experienced a steady growth and has over 7,000 guest rooms and more than 150 inn across more than 180 locations in the United States.

Ray Sawyer and Ed Semmler founded the lodging chain in Fort Worth, Texas and uses the referral system. This simply means that independent motel and inn operators can use and adapt the Budget Host brand. The main company earns through a referral system or when someone books a hotel or inn unit through Budget Host’s marketing channels.

All the 140 hotels under the Budget Host brand are franchised and works under a minimum of 1 year contract with the company. Although the system earns through a referral system, booking under the Auto-Clerk PMS System is commission free, but with an annual fee of $99 to use the service and connect owners to other online hotel and accommodation companies such as Expedia and Booking.com, minus the transaction fees.
