01

The problem

Most bookings came through booking sites, which take 15–20% commission on every stay and keep the guest’s contact details.

02

What we built

  1. 01

    Book direct

    Guests book on the hotel’s own site with no commission, and rooms are shared out between the hotel’s site and the booking sites.

  2. 02

    Own the guest

    Every guest’s details go into the hotel’s own guest database, so returning guests can be invited back directly by email or WhatsApp.

  3. 03

    Run the hotel

    A management system for owners and staff covering bookings, prices and in-hotel services, plus a private area for guests.
