Discover Elegant, our new minimalist template. With its simple and elegant style, this template is the most suitable for hotels that want to highlight the photographies of their accommodations.

Elegant follows the CRO requirements so our users can get as many conversions as possible. Have a look at our template.

At CloudHotelier we care about our clients, that’s why we want them to make the most of theirs websites.

The CRO (Conversion Rate Optimization) is a combination of techniques and methodologies that we apply on websites to improve their conversion, enhancing their percentage of views that make reservations.

The new version 1.11 of CloudHotelier HRS Engine comes with new features, the most important are the Accelerators. Never heard of them? These are the messages that appear on some reservation portals such as Booking.com that urge the user to make a reservation at that same moment.

In this post, we show you how to position your website inside a micro niche without damaging the hotel’s global image.

In CloudHotelier we are gathering stories about hotels that have created their own website using our templates and reservation system, without needing our help. We consider this a total success!

¿Are you interested in one of our themes for your hotel but you have no idea of how to start a website? Don’t worry, we’re glad to help you. And this is how we do it.

When we create a website for a client, we always follow the same steps because it’s the best way to work.

1. Create the home in the main language and define the ultimate sections
2. Create the whole website in the main language
3. Translate the website to the other languages
4. Prepare y start the booking engine
5. Publish the website online

We are developing the WHOLE system from scratch, applying all the knowledge and experience accumulated during the last 5 years.

We plan to launch the first beta version by the end of this month. A production ready release is espectied in Oct/Nov 2015. The new release will include a new version of Cloud Admin Panel (that we will call Cloud Admin Pro), and a new version of the website building suite:

• New FREE hotel theme that we call FLAT
• New version of JKit with uikit layouts
• New version of the CloudHotelier Booking Engine Client

The new CloudHotelier Admin Pro panel will be open source, so it can be used as a normal Joomla extension (although you will continue to have the new product as managed Cloud service also).

The ubiquity of the large operators such as booking.com causes very pronounced specificities in the hotel industry. This can be a problem, but also an opportunity.

Every hotel website has a natural traffic produced by direct searches based on the hotel name. If you take a look at Google Analytics you will see that the number #1 keyword for your website is the name of the hotel. More important, the name of the hotel produces the 99% of the reservations at your website.

This is consecuence of users seeing your hotel in a reservations portal, such as booking.com, and then looking for your hotel website trying to get more information.

Introducing our new design 'Natura'. This new Theme has been developed intensively with CSS3 techniques: shadows, transparency, rounded corners, gradients and transitions form a spectacular set that flows naturally in your browser.

At home page we have built a spectacular presentation with colorful effects. Superimposed on the big images, we have put the booking engine in horizontal position, so the website visitors will inevitably feel attracted to begin the booking process. Once started the booking, and with CloudHotelier 2.4 installed on the site, they no longuer be able to stop the reservation until they have confirmed their booking!
