Building A Converting New Hotel Website In Just 3 Weeks

MARKETING

The digital landscape is fiercely competitive when it comes to hotels. Nowadays, excellent amenities and a great location won’t cut it if potential guests do not have an easy way to book with you.

Why it matters: Having a seamless booking and browsing experience on your website is crucial—not only to compete with other hotels in your area but also to compete with OTAs. Luckily, with no-code tools, building a hotel website that is optimised and mobile-friendly can now be a quick and budget-friendly project. A decade ago, Crystal Hotels built their original website in close to 6 months—through email correspondence and with no one-on-one training that would enable them to have control over their own website.

After building their new, fresh website in just 3 weeks with Hotelchamp eCommerce, Lenka Baffour, Crystal Hotels’ Marketing Manager says “It was miles away with Hotelchamp”.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Looking for a fresh, more attractive and user-friendly website, Crystal Hotels was determined to create a seamless booking experience for their potential guests.

Fresh and new website: Crystal Hotels wanted a new website with a more fresh and modern look. Specifically, they were looking for large photo galleries to showcase their hotel in a positive light.
Save time and resources: Small hotels like the Crystal Hotels properties need budget-friendly options when it comes to website design, so they were looking for a cost-effective website-building option that would be finished within a tight deadline.
Increase direct bookings: Aiming to provide a seamless booking experience for their guests, Crystal Hotels had the ultimate goal of increasing the coming from their direct channel.
