Our Hotel Web Design agency specialising in hotels and restaurants has been providing digital solutions such as websites for more than 10 years to hotel managers and restaurateurs. We aim to increase direct bookings from our customers, in particular through our booking engine. In 2022 we can undoubtedly say that OTAs have become essential. But also problematic for the customer. The commissions generated by these external reservations have simply generated an increase in prices. Nevertheless, it is possible to increase direct hotel bookings with a few tips. And therefore, offer a more attractive price to the customer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t

How to reduce your dependence on OTAs<\/h2>\n

OTAs (Online Travel Agency) like booking, expedia, AirBnB, are agencies specialised in tourism, hotels and restaurants, they gather thousands of ads from all over the world and each reservation made at a hotel, hostel, bed and breakfast or other from these sites, requires the payment of a commission.<\/p>\n

Becoming independent from these platforms allows you to increase your direct bookings and not to have to pay commissions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t
