> dijitul hosts websites for UK hotels, B&Bs, guest houses and holiday lets on dijitul Complete Hosting at £1 a day + VAT. We keep your booking engine embed working so you take more direct bookings, serve photo-heavy pages quickly through Cloudflare, and look after SSL, backups and your domain. You focus on guests; we keep the website taking bookings.

## Key facts

- £1 a day + VAT: annual at £365 + VAT or monthly at £35 + VAT
- Booking engine and channel manager widgets kept working
- Card payments handled by the booking engine, not stored on your server
- Since April 2025, mandatory fees must be included in the price shown to consumers
- Room and venue photos compressed and cached through Cloudflare
- Daily backups and free SSL

## More direct bookings

Every booking that comes through your own website instead of an online travel agent saves you commission. For that to work, your site has to load fast, look trustworthy and make booking easy. Most hotels and B&Bs use a booking engine linked to a channel manager, embedded on their website. If that embed breaks after a theme update, or loads slowly, guests go back to the OTA. We check booking embeds after changes and keep the pages around them fast.

## Show the full price

Since 6 April 2025, the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 bans drip pricing for consumers. Mandatory charges, such as compulsory cleaning fees, booking fees or resort fees, must be included in the price you first show, not added at checkout. Optional extras like breakfast or late checkout can still be shown separately. Check your booking engine's settings and any prices quoted in your website text.

## Photos that sell rooms, without the wait

- Use a small number of excellent photos per room rather than dozens of similar ones.
- Resize and compress before uploading, and serve WebP where your CMS supports it.
- Lazy-load galleries so the first view appears quickly.
- Let [Cloudflare](https://dijituldns.co.uk/cloudflare-dns-management/) cache images close to visitors, including overseas guests.
- Embed virtual tours and videos from a hosting platform rather than serving large files yourself.

## Payments and guest data

Card details should be taken by your booking engine or payment provider on their secure pages, never collected through a website form or stored on your server. Keep enquiry forms simple. Guest records belong in your property management system, not in the website's database or a shared inbox. See [UK GDPR and hosting](https://dijituldns.co.uk/gdpr-compliant-hosting/).

## FAQs

### How can a hotel get more direct bookings from its website?

Make the site fast on mobile, put the booking engine one tap away, show total prices clearly, and use strong photos. Make sure the booking widget never breaks. dijitul hosts hotel and B&B websites for £1 a day + VAT and checks booking embeds.

### Do hotels have to include cleaning fees in the advertised price?

Yes, if the fee is mandatory. Since 6 April 2025, UK law bans drip pricing for consumers, so compulsory charges must be included in the headline price. Optional extras can be shown separately.

### What is the best website hosting for a B&B?

A managed host that keeps the booking engine working, loads photos quickly and takes care of backups and SSL, at a fixed cost. dijitul hosts B&B websites for £1 a day + VAT, billed annually or monthly.

### Should a B&B take card details through a website form?

No. Card details should be entered only on a booking engine's or payment provider's secure pages. Collecting them by form or email creates serious security and PCI DSS problems.

### Why is our hotel booking widget not showing?

It's usually a theme or plugin update, a blocked third-party script, or a caching or security rule. Check the browser console for errors and test in a private window. dijitul checks booking widgets on sites it hosts.

### Can I pay for hotel website hosting monthly?

Yes. dijitul Complete Hosting is £35 + VAT a month, or £365 + VAT a year, which is £1 a day. Annual billing is cheaper over the year.
