How Much Does a Hotel Website Cost?

Whether you run a boutique hotel, eco resort, surf lodge, wellness retreat, or vacation rental - your website should do more than look good. It should bring you direct bookings, reduce your dependence on Booking.com and Airbnb, and make your property stand out to the right guests.

And no dependence on a webmaster - your website is so intuitive your junior intern can learn how to edit it in 1 hour.
Enough talking - let's get to the real question: what should a hotel website cost in 2026? 👇

What Affects the Cost of Your Hotel Website
Every hospitality property is different, so every website estimate is different. Here are the main factors that affect your hotel website cost:
Number of Accommodation Pages
Each type of accommodation (villas, hotel rooms, treehouses, glamping tents) gets its own dedicated page on your website. Your first accommodation type includes 4 pages. Additional pages cost $40 each. A property with 3 types and 12 total units will cost more than a small B&B with 2 rooms.
Booking System Integration
If you already have a booking engine you're happy with, we'll connect it to your new site at no extra cost. If you need help choosing one, we compare 20+ booking systems and recommend the best fit for your property, then set it up for you.
Number of Languages
Your first language is included. Each additional language costs $290 — we create a fully translated version of your entire website. Multilingual sites are essential if your guests come from different countries.
Experience and Activity Pages
If your property offers yoga retreats, surf lessons, wine tours, cooking classes, or other experiences, each type gets its own page at $190 per page.
Hotel Marketing Services
You can add extras like SEO monitoring ($50/month), SEO content marketing with 4 blog posts per month ($150/month), SEO content marketing with 30 blog posts per month ($390/month), Google Business Profile optimization ($490), or custom logo design ($990). Did you know that neglecting your Google Business Profile on Google Maps is costing you dozens of free missed bookings every month?
Who We Build Hotel Websites For
We work with independent hospitality businesses worldwide. Our clients include boutique hotels, eco resorts, surf lodges, retreat venues, wellness resorts, villa rentals, glamping sites, and vacation rental operators. If your property welcomes guests, we can build a website that brings more of them to your door — directly.
Why Direct Bookings Are Worth More Than OTA Bookings
Online travel agencies (OTAs) like Booking.com, Airbnb and Expedia charge 12% to 22% commission on every reservation. For a property with 10 bookings per month at $300 per night, that's $4,000 - $10,000 per year going straight to the OTA instead of your business.
A well-designed hotel website with a direct booking engine lets guests reserve and pay on your site. You keep the full room rate, build a direct relationship with your guests, and collect their contact information for future marketing. Even shifting just a few bookings per month from OTAs to your own website pays for the entire website investment within months

3. Get the web design quote emailed to you. No pressure, just read it through.
4. Start your project — pay a 50% deposit, upload some photos and text, and receive your bespoke draft website within one week.

How does your hotel website pricing compare to other agencies?
Industry-wide, custom hotel websites range from $1,500 for a basic template build to $25,000+ for fully bespoke elite resort platforms. Our pricing sits in the sweet spot - you get a custom-designed website with booking integration, SEO, and multilingual support at a fraction of what larger agencies charge. And unlike template builds, every site we create is custom and bespoke.
How long does it take to build a hotel website?
We deliver a draft website within 1 week of receiving your content and photos. Including feedback and revisions, the entire process takes a maximum of 2 weeks - provided you can share your property photos and information promptly, and don't add extras along the way. We handle the content collection in a quick 5-minute onboarding right after your 50% deposit.
Do I need a booking system on my hotel website?
Yes, having a booking system on your hotel website is strongly recommended. Potential guests don't have time anymore to e-mail back and forth about reservation info, available dates and pricing. Having a booking calendar integrated on your home page lets you save on OTA fees (the commission charged by Booking or Airbnb). A booking system (also called a booking engine or PMS) lets visitors check availability, select dates, and pay — all without leaving your site. We help you choose the right booking system for your property and integrate it into your website. If you already use one, we connect it to your new site at no extra cost.
What CMS / software do you build hotel websites on?
We build on Duda, which ranks #1 for SEO performance according to Google's annual Core Web Vitals report. It's fast, mobile-friendly, and has a simple editor that lets you update your own text and photos without needing a developer. It's a better choice than WordPress for most hospitality businesses because of its superior speed, security, reliability, and built-in SEO. No more breaking plug-ins or outdated designs.

Can I edit my website myself after it's built?
Yes. Duda has an intuitive drag-and-drop editor. You can change text, swap photos, add pages, and update your content anytime. We also include free minor edits done by us as part of your monthly hosting plan ($49/month).
What ongoing costs should I expect after the website is built?
Website hosting costs $49 per month, which includes 100% uptime, SSL security, monthly performance stats, privacy and cookie policies, 24/7 technical support, and free minor edits. Optional monthly add-ons like SEO monitoring ($50/month) or content marketing ($150-390/month) are available but not required.
Do you offer SEO for hotel websites?
Every website we build includes foundational SEO — keyword research, Google Search Console setup, meta tags, and a search-friendly site structure. For ongoing SEO, we offer a monthly package ($50/month) that includes keyword monitoring, technical improvements, and Google Search Console indexing. We also offer SEO content marketing ($190/month) with 2 new blog posts per month to keep your website ranking higher over time.
Can you help with my Google Business Profile?
Yes. We offer Google Business Profile optimization as a one-time add-on ($390). Whether you need a new profile set up from scratch or a full makeover of your existing listing, we handle photos, services, local keywords, and review strategy to help guests find you on Google Maps.
Where can I get a hotel logo?
We offer custom logo design by our Art Director with over 10 years of agency experience. This is available as an optional add-on ($990) during the quoting process.
Do you work with hotels outside of Europe?
Yes. We're based in Portugal but work with hospitality businesses worldwide. Our clients are located across Europe, the Americas, and Africa. The pricing tool automatically shows prices in euros for European properties and dollars for the rest of the world.
What's included in the 50% deposit?
The 50% deposit secures your project start date. As soon as you have paid it, you get a quick 5-minute onboarding form to collect your photos, text, and brand preferences. You'll receive a draft website within 1 week. The remaining 50% is due when the website goes live.
