Streamlining the Online Hotel Booking Experience with Top-notch Technologies and Solutions 

Online hotel booking systems have revolutionized the way people plan and book their travel accommodations. With the convenience of being able to browse and compare various hotels, rooms, and prices from the comfort of their own homes, more and more travelers are opting to book their accommodations online. At the same time, people also encounter problems with certain online booking platforms that lack authenticity, furnish inaccurate information, and suffer from poor user interface/user experience, making navigation difficult. This case study presents our recent collaboration with a client, where we helped enhance the appeal of their web and mobile application. Get to know more about how we successfully addressed these issues by reading this case study.

About the Client 

Weeklyhotels.com is a niche online travel agency that specializes in providing hotel accommodation booking services for customers and businesses seeking hotels with weekly rates or rooms with kitchenettes. The company was established in 2013 and has a wealth of experience in the hospitality industry. 

 

Our role as a Software Company 

Zenkins utilized ASP.NET MVC to build an admin panel for a seamless user experience. The WeeklyHotel Admin Panel is designed to be lightweight and user-friendly, with a clean, polished interface and reliable, responsive performance. As a hospitality-focused solution, it is optimized for fast, customer-centric management. This allows both customers and businesses to quickly search for nearby hotels and generate receipts for bookings with ease, streamlining the reservation process for all stakeholders.

  • Property Hosting Facility  
  • Multiple Booking Option  
  • Receipt Generation 

 

The Problem 

The main issue faced by our client was that travelers seeking new experiences struggled to find their desired hotel/room, often settling for less-than-ideal options. 

 

The key objectives proposed by the company were: 

  • To change the interface so that the users should feel it easy to use. 
  • An option for users can to hotels they like and revisit later to view offers and amenities 
  • To make the navigation better 
  • An option for users to browse hotels without committing to specific travel dates  
  • To add the option to contact customer support if they encounter any booking issues 
  • To make all the payment options on one page 
  • An option for users can categorize and prioritize places to visit 
  • To provide all necessary information about the hotel, including details and photos, readily accessible on the hotel details page 

 

The challenges that we turned into opportunities 

The challenge faced was to create a digital platform that enhances the overall travel experience and promotes a healthier lifestyle for users in the travel industry. The aim was to improve the user’s interactions with booking, ordering, and traveling through the creation of a seamless search process. 

 

Our Best Solution 

We developed a user-friendly website to streamline the process of searching for and booking hotel rooms, enhancing the overall user experience. We focused more on: 

  • Incorporated a simple and stylish design with appealing color schemes and clear font sizes. 
  • Included a “Like” or “Save” button for each hotel to allow users to easily keep track of their preferred options. 
  • Located the “Save,” “Booking,” and “Profile” buttons at the bottom of the page for user convenience. 
  • Included a “Travel with us” category to help users easily find destinations that align with their priorities. 
  • Implemented a two-click process for selecting check-in and check-out dates, as well as easy options to add or remove guests and rooms. 
  • Displayed detailed information on hotel pages including photos, amenities, description, ratings, location, share options, discounts, coupons, and user reviews. 
  • Provided a range of online payment options all on one page. 

 

The technologies we relied on to make this happen 

ASP.NET MVC, C#, SQL Server, Sabre API, Web API, Google Place API, Google Map API, .NET Framework
