Working great for me with following log stash changes

input {  
beats {  
port =\> 5044  
}  
}  
filter {  
xml {  
store\_xml =\> "false"  
source =\> "message"  
remove\_namespaces =\> "true"

xpath =\>[  
"/propertyAvailability/hotelRates/hotel/bookingChannel/ratePlan/roomDetails/hhBedTypes/hhBedType/@hhBedType","hhBedType"  
]  
}  
}

output {  
elasticsearch {  
hosts =\> ["[http://localhost:9200](http://localhost:9200)"]  
index =\> "10jun2"  
}  
}
