Luviana Hotel Booking WordPress Theme Highlights

Clean and elegant design of Luviana makes this theme suitable for various hospitality establishments such as hotels, guest houses, bed and breakfast booking, bnbs, hostels, resorts or inns.

The theme is powered by MotoPress Hotel Booking plugin – an all-in-one reservation system for your WordPress site. Thanks to this, your guests will be free to check the availability of your hotel rooms online and book them in real-time.

WordPress 5.0 Gutenberg Theme

Luviana Hotel Booking theme works seamlessly within WordPress 5.0+ and is built from the ground up for the WordPress Block Editor (Gutenberg.) Take the best advantage of the new default editor and build a site for your hotel with no coding involved.

Hotel Booking WordPress Theme Built with Getwid

We built this theme using Getwid WordPress Blocks plugin – a free library of additional blocks for Gutenberg created by our team. Some of the blocks provided by Getwid are: Banner block, Image Slider blocks, Advanced Heading block, Testimonial block, Instagram Feed block, Image Hotspot Block and many more. You are free to use the extra blocks too and easily customize the look of any page or post visually in the block editor.

Custom Gutenberg Blocks for Hotel-related Content

We created custom blocks to adapt the Hotel Booking plugin for the Gutenberg Block Editor. They enable you to add and edit rooms, the search form, calendars, services and more property-related content visually in the core WordPress Editor, without shortcodes.

List and Grid Room Layouts

The theme is pre-packed with different room layouts to help you choose the most suitable one for your property types. You can go with rather classic list layouts, more fancy boxed layout or a columnized minimalist view.

Full and Fixed Width Websites Layouts

Luviana offers several layout modes: the full-width layout allows your content to automatically span the whole width of your screen and creates an immersive UX, while the fixed-width website layout is great for keeping a default structure all the time.

The front-page image slider can be easily transformed into a header video or an image slideshow with a video. You can upload your video and set it as a first slide via the WordPress Customizer – it’ll ensure your slideshow or introductory video is not just beautiful but also optimized for better performance thanks to the native WordPress reliance.

Change the Default Color Scheme

By default, you can modify a header text color and a default background color. If you want to completely alter the color scheme of the theme, feel free to change accent colors responsible for buttons and widgets as well as secondary colors for button hovers and decorative elements.

Integrated Online Booking System (added for free)

No more per-booking commissions or subscription fees: create a directory of your hotel rooms on your own WordPress site and let your guests book them directly from you thanks to the integrated WP Booking system. You get full control over your hotel reservation system and are free to set any pricing or custom booking rules.

Real-time Property Search Form

Guests can search through all rooms via a dedicated search form, which includes four default fields: arrival/departure date, the number of adults and children. Feel free to shorten it to the check-in and check-out only, rename ‘Adults’ to guests, remove the ‘Children’ field only, state the age of children, etc.

Every room comes with an individual availability calendar, which displays up-to-date information automatically.

Unlimited Search Form Fields

You can extend the property search form with any number of your own search fields (location, room type, etc.) to allow your guests to perform a more tailored property search. The same values you add as search fields can be used to display as extra details in the accommodations directory.

Automated and Manual Booking Confirmation Modes

Choose among three ways of processing incoming reservations:

• automatically confirm reservations upon payment;
• automatically send emails with booking confirmation links to your guests;
• review and approve/decline bookings manually from the back-end of your site.

Online and Offline Payments

Let your guests securely pay online or upon arrival. Online payments are handled via 6 reliable payment gateways: PayPal, Stripe, Beanstream/Bambora, Braintree and 2Checkout.
You can optionally purchase our custom WooCommerce Payments addon to enable any gateway available through WooCommerce without any tech help.

Custom Room Rates, Deposits and Discounts

The pricing system is deeply flexible. Charge different prices based on:

• Specific room type conditions (non-refundable, breakfast included).
• Any custom season (summer, weekends, Christmas, etc.).
• The length of stay (weekly, monthly or other customizable terms).
• Custom discount coupons (fixed value or percentage).

Monetary or percentage deposit payments are available.

Charge Taxes and Fees

Be upfront with your customers about all taxes or service charges you collect. With the built-in reservation system of Luviana theme, you can create taxes or fees with custom names and display them in booking price breakdown on checkout.

Offer extra packages and services to increase the sum of each check. The system allows to charge per accommodation or guest; once or per night. You can entice guests to buy more extras by featuring them at checkout and anywhere on the website. You may also offer any service for free.

Integrated Channel Manager for Bookings

Encourage direct bookings but don’t ignore OTAs! The built-in iCal sync support lets you update availability of your rooms across multiple channels, so if your hotel is listed on external booking platforms like Expedia, Booking.com, Airbnb or similar, you can rest assured you’ll be protected from double reservations.

The two-way sync process (website with third-party platforms) can be both automatic and manual.

Effortless Bookings Management

As a hotel website manager, you are provided with multiple ways to handle bookings:

• View current and forthcoming reservations in a calendar format.
• Track Payment history and all logged actions of each booking.
• Optionally add reservations manually from the dashboard.
• Record payments manually upon guest’s arrival.
• Request the remaining balance automatically prior to guest’s arrival to secure their booking (requires a paid add-on).
• And more!

Export Bookings Data in CSV

Take your booking data with you! The ‘Reports’ plugin menu allows you to export bookings data in the CSV format (a spreadsheet document) selectively: you can either import everything or include only individual booking details before importing them (by the Accommodation type, booking status, etc.).

Block Rooms and Dates Selectively

The “Booking rules” menu allows you to designate default available check-in and check-out days, minimum and maximum days to stay and optionally disable booking option for selected properties for a certain time frame.

GDPR Compliant

At checkout, all booking forms are supplied with the checkbox for opt-in consent to follow GDPR regulations. Clicking the checkbox, guests accept your website terms and conditions before making a reservation.
