Zotaki Platform · Hotel WebsiteHotel Website
A complete website for your property — every page a hotel needs, on your own domain, with rooms, rates and availability read live from your PMS and the Zotaki booking engine built straight into it. No agency, no plugins, no third party in the middle.

Why this exists
Most hotel websites are brochures that cannot take money
An agency built it four years ago. The tariff on it is out of date. The photographs are from before the renovation. The "Book Now" button opens an enquiry form that somebody answers the next morning, by which time the guest has booked on an OTA.
And every change costs money. A new offer, a new room type, a corrected phone number — each one is an email to a developer who may or may not still be reachable.
- Rates on the site that do not match the front desk
- No real booking — just an enquiry form
- Slow on a phone, where nearly all your traffic is
- A yearly maintenance bill for a site nobody updates
One platform
Website, booking engine and PMS are the same system
This is the part that matters. Most properties buy a website from one company and a booking engine from another, then pay a third to make them talk. Here there is nothing to connect.
Nothing to integrate
The booking engine is not a plugin bolted on — it is the same platform. No API keys, no widget code, no version that breaks after an update.
The guest never leaves
Search, choose, pay and confirm all happen on your domain. No jarring redirect to a page with somebody else's name on it.
Change it once
Update a tariff at the front desk and the website shows it. Block a room type and it stops selling. There is only one set of numbers.
What you get
Every page a hotel actually needs
Not a one-page template. A real website with the pages a guest looks for and a search engine expects.
Under the surface
The things an agency charges extra for
Booking engine included
Commission-free direct bookings with Razorpay payments into your own bank. See the booking engine.
Mobile first
Designed for the phone your guest is holding while comparing you against an OTA listing, not shrunk down from a desktop layout.
Fast, and stays fast
Compressed images, sensible code and proper caching — because a slow page loses a booking before the guest sees a room.
SEO foundations
Clean headings, editable titles and descriptions, hotel structured data, alt text and a sitemap. Built in, not an add-on package.
Your domain, with SSL
Hosting, certificate and renewals handled. Bring the domain you own or we will help you register one.
Edit it yourself
Change text, swap a photograph or publish an offer from the same login your team already uses. No ticket, no invoice.
Gallery that behaves
Upload full-size photographs; they are resized and compressed for you rather than making the page crawl.
Offers with real links
Each package links into the booking flow with the rate plan pre-selected, so an offer converts instead of just informing.
Analytics connected
Google Analytics and Search Console wired up at launch, plus look-to-book figures from the booking engine itself.
One source of truth
The website reads your PMS, it does not copy it
Room types, descriptions, photographs, rate plans, inclusions, availability and offers all live in Zotaki. The website displays them. That is why the tariff on your site can never quietly go stale — there is no second copy to forget about.
- Live availability, so a sold-out date shows as sold out
- Rates change at the desk and appear on the site
- Add a room type once and its page exists
- Close a rate plan and it disappears from the website
Run your own numbers
What a hotel website actually costs over five years
The build quote is the number everyone looks at. The maintenance, the hosting and the small change requests are what the website really costs — and they carry on every year whether the site earns anything or not.
Total cost of ownership
₹2,05,000
over 5 years, for a website that still cannot take a booking on its own.
- Recurring cost every year
- ₹24,000
- Average cost a year
- ₹41,000
- Average cost a month
- ₹3,417
- Plus a booking engine, typically
- ₹0 with Zotaki
A good agency is worth paying if you want something genuinely bespoke, and we will say so. This module is for the far more common case — a property that needs a solid, current, bookable website and does not want a development project.
Getting there
Four steps, one to two weeks
Pick a layout
Choose a design, your colours and your fonts. We set it up against your brand.
Send photos & text
The only part that needs you. Good photographs matter more than any feature here.
Point your domain
We handle hosting, SSL and redirects from your old pages so rankings carry over.
Go live
Razorpay connected, analytics wired, first direct booking the same week.
Who this suits
Properties this is built for
No website, or an old one
You have been meaning to fix it for two years and the quotes keep making you close the tab.
Living entirely on OTAs
Every booking arrives with a commission attached because guests have nowhere else to book you.
Groups
One site covering every property, or a site each, with a shared booking flow. See multi-property.
Worth saying plainly
Three things to be realistic about
Your photographs decide this
The best-built website in India will not sell a room on dark, tilted phone photos. If you spend money anywhere alongside this, spend it on a photographer for a day.
A website is not traffic
We give you clean technical foundations. Ranking above the OTAs for your own name takes reviews, a Google Business profile and time. Nobody can sell you position three tomorrow.
It is a template, well built
You choose a layout and make it yours; you are not commissioning a bespoke design. If you want something unique and are ready to pay for it, hire an agency — and embed our booking engine in it.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a full website or just a booking page?
A full website — home, rooms, amenities, dining, gallery, offers, banquets, location, about, contact, policies and a blog, on your own domain, with the booking engine built in.
Do I need a separate booking engine?
No. It is part of the same platform, so there is nothing to integrate, no plugin, and no third-party page the guest is redirected to. See the booking engine.
Where do room details and rates come from?
Straight from your PMS — the same records your front desk uses, so the website cannot show a price or a room you have changed.
Can I use my existing domain?
Yes, with an SSL certificate. If you own a domain we point it at the new site; if not, we help you register one.
Can I edit the site myself?
Yes. Text, photographs, offers and blog posts are edited from the same Zotaki login your team already uses.
Is it good for SEO?
Clean headings, editable titles and descriptions, hotel structured data, alt text, a sitemap and fast mobile loading. That is the foundation — ranking still depends on your content, reviews and links.
Does it work on mobile?
It is designed mobile-first, and the booking flow in particular is built for a small screen rather than squeezed onto one.
Can I show more than one property?
Yes — one site covering the group or a site per property, with a shared booking flow so a guest never leaves your domain.
How long does it take to go live?
Typically one to two weeks for a single property, most of it waiting on your photographs and text. The build is configuration, not development.
What if I already have a website I like?
Keep it. The booking engine embeds into any existing site as a Book Now button or panel. This module is for properties whose site is old, cannot take bookings, or costs money every time it needs a change.
See your property as a website
Thirty minutes. Send us your property name and a few photographs and we will show you the homepage, a room page and a live booking running end to end on a preview domain — before you commit to anything.
