Our clients include a lot of hotels. We know that a website’s ability to transfer the atmosphere of an establishment that welcomes guests is of fundamental importance. We went to Windsor Hotel to have a look around and soak up the mood there: the story behind the details, the elegance of the furnishings, and the exclusivity of the setting in the historic centre of Merano-Meran have been translated into webpages.
Elegance, history, modernity
Maximum attention to detail
Maximum attention to detail has been paid to the website’s interface, using a structure with block navigation to allow users to navigate in a precise manner both by browsing the contents and using the cursor or their browser’s scroll bar. To simplify its use, the analysis phase with wireframe was enlarged at the start of the project so that contents and interaction mode could be defined without any hitch.
The same personality and style both online and offline
A website has to reflect the personality of the company that it represents: for this reason, the Windsor Hotel website has an impeccable aesthetic appearance and uses the colours of gold and white to evoke the elegance of the establishment. We paid great attention to the typography (line-spacing, font size), to the margins, to the spacing, leaving a sense of openness to accompany the large images. It is always clear what visitors have to do: the main call to action – ‘book now’ – is always in sight and registers how many people use it.
The best on-the-go experience
The website features three languages to cater for all the clientele staying in a town like Merano-Meran. Besides this, it is completely responsive to make it pleasant to use for any type of client. It doesn’t matter which device you select and book your room from, Windsor Hotel has thought of everything.
Reliable tools, complete control
We used WordPress as the CMS for the website, personalising it to adapt it to the needs of the client. The administration panel was personalised so that Windsor Hotel staff may manage content, composition and updates in autonomous fashion. The block structure may be modified to suit the needs of the moment, inserting or removing content: we work to make our websites easy to use not just for the end user, but for the clients who use it, too.
We always take our lead from the needs of the client. In this case, the booking engine chosen by Windsor was Kross Booking, and we integrated this by interfacing with the supplier.
Contact always at hand
The hotel’s contact details are constantly visible and usable on every page of the website. This is a basic feature for the business of a hotel and making contact should never be difficult.
