Web design for hotels

Specialist web design for hotels: a direct booking engine, a gallery that sells the experience, rooms and rates, your location and offers, and local visibility. A site that cut your OTA commission and fill rooms directly.

People decide with a phone in their hand and in about two minutes: what you serve, opening hours, photos, and whether they can book or order. Hiding the menu inside a PDF loses you exactly those two minutes.

The occasion matters more than the cuisine: weekday lunch, a birthday, the terrace, gluten free, a family Sunday. Each one is a separate search and deserves its own paragraph on the site.

A menu from two years ago costs more than no menu at all: the prices are wrong, half the dishes are gone and the impression is of a place that has closed. What is on the page has to be what is on the pass tonight.

Allergens and dietary options deserve a page, not a footnote. The person who has to check is usually the one choosing for the whole table, and a clear answer wins the whole group rather than one order.

A guest almost always checks your own website before booking, even if they found you on an OTA. What they see decides whether they book direct or hand the OTA its commission: a beautiful site, an easy booking engine, a better rate. A website that makes booking direct effortless keeps that 15–20% with you.

The hotels that cut their OTA dependence have a website that competes with the platforms: stunning photos, a direct booking engine, a best-rate promise, clear info. If your own site is worse than your Booking.com listing, you train guests to book — and pay commission — everywhere but with you.

The OTAs are unavoidable for discovery, but the booking doesn't have to be theirs. A guest who loves your hotel on Booking.com will book direct if your website makes it easy and rewards them for it. Your site's job is to win back that booking — and its margin.

A website for your hotel has one job: winning the direct, commission-free booking. We design pages with a direct booking engine, a gallery that sells the stay and your best rates up front — because every guest who books with you instead of an OTA keeps 15–20% in your pocket.

Guests find your hotel on Booking.com or Google, then check your own website before deciding. If your site is beautiful and booking direct is easy — and cheaper — they book with you and you skip the commission. We design hotel websites that win the direct booking.

Your hotel pays 15–20% to the OTAs on every booking they bring. A professional website with an easy direct booking engine, a best-rate promise and a gallery that sells the stay is what wins the guest to book with you instead.

Your website includes a direct booking engine, a gallery that sells the stay, rooms and rates, a best-rate promise, your location and offers, and WhatsApp one tap away. Everything a guest needs to book direct instead of paying an OTA's markup.

We design it around what wins direct bookings: book direct in a few taps, photography that sells the experience, a best-rate incentive, clear rooms and rates. A tool that turns an OTA browser into a commission-free, direct guest.

Every hotel website we design earns its keep by taking the friction out: a booking engine front and centre, a gallery that sells the stay, a reason to book direct, trust throughout. The guest arrives from an OTA and leaves having booked with you, commission-free.

No recycled templates: we start from your brand, your colours and your photos to create a unique website for your hotel, responsive and lightning-fast. And we leave it ready for you to edit without any technical know-how.

Reviews and your Google profile decide many visits to a hotel. We work your Google Business Profile, reviews and website SEO together, so when people search for you in your city, you appear — first and well rated.

In brief: web design for hotels

  • You change texts, prices and photos yourself from a simple panel, with no technical know-how.
  • Perfect on a phone: that is where hotels get found, and where the decision is made.
  • Most people look you up before they call. A fast, current site for hotels is what turns that look into an enquiry.
  • Domain and hosting are stated upfront; everything else is optional and you decide who handles it.

⚙️ Not just a website, a tool

You own it and you run it. Texts, prices and photos change from a panel, without depending on anyone and without waiting.

What your website includes

Arriving at eleven when check-in is three

Bag storage, early rooms and what it costs.

Parking, and whether it is genuinely free

Spaces, height barriers and the street alternative.

Breakfast: included, added, or skipped

With what is actually served, not a photograph.

The rate that cannot be cancelled

Both options priced side by side.

Which rooms genuinely differ

Size, view and noise, instead of adjectives.

Dogs, cots and connecting rooms

The three requests that arrive by telephone.

Frequently asked questions about web design for hotels

Can guests book directly on the website, commission-free? +

Yes — that's the whole point. We integrate a direct booking engine so guests book and pay on your own site, and you keep the 15–20% you'd otherwise hand to an OTA on every stay.

Can it connect with my channel manager or PMS? +

Yes. We integrate the booking engine with your channel manager or property management system, so availability and rates stay in sync across your website and the OTAs — no double bookings, no manual updates.

How do I get guests to book direct instead of on Booking.com? +

With a website that's better than your OTA listing and a reason to book direct — a best-rate promise, a perk, easy booking. We design exactly that, so the guest who found you on an OTA books commission-free with you.

Can we update the menu ourselves? +

In two minutes from a phone, and it appears everywhere at once — the page, the schema Google reads and the printable version.

Should we take bookings on the site or by phone? +

Both, but the site has to work at eleven at night, which is when a good share of tables are decided.

Do allergens have to be on the online menu? +

They are required, and they are set once per dish. The printed menu comes from the same source.

Do prices have to include VAT? +

Prices shown to the public do, as the final amount. Net prices belong only on pages aimed at business customers, and if both appear, it has to be obvious which is which.

How long does it take? +

A website for your hotel is usually ready in 1 to 3 weeks once we have the content. We give you a fixed timeline up front.

Will it appear on Google? +

Yes. We design every website optimised for local SEO from the ground up, so your hotel appears when people search for you in your city. We can also run an ongoing rankings plan.

Do you work with customers abroad? +

Yes. We handle the whole project remotely, fast and conveniently, with hotels across the English-speaking world.
