From a template that said “Simple & Elegant” to a hotel app that sells rooms and weddings
Hotel Sheetal hosts weddings, award nights and conferences as well as overnight guests. Its old site had a generic booking box and nothing about events — the part of the business with the biggest tickets.
Drag the handle. Old site: Before. Screenshots taken at the same screen size.
The problems
- Theme demo copy (“Simple & Elegant”) and a broken payment-card image
- No pages for weddings, award nights, conferences or birthdays
- One booking box for every kind of enquiry
- Room rates and availability only by phone
The rebuild
App-style navigation
A bottom tab bar on phones — Home, Rooms, Book, Dine — like the apps guests already use.
Event pages
Weddings, award nights, conferences and birthdays each get a page, photos and a tailored enquiry.
Smart enquiry wizard
Pick what you need and the form asks only the right questions: dates, guests, menu, hall.
Live availability calendar
Guests see open dates and rates; the hotel updates them from its admin panel.
WhatsApp first
Every enquiry hands off to WhatsApp with a reference number.
What changed for the business
Wedding families now send us the date, guest count and menu in the first message. Half the phone calls disappeared.
