Enquiry VIew

Increase your bookers' entry points with a few lines of code and let guests search & book on landing with Enquiry View

When a guest lands on your website already intent on booking, we believe in giving them the ability to easily and quickly check availability at your accommodation. Utilise our enquiry view in or under your home page banner so that guests can immediately search your accommodation availability and convert through the booking journey. 

Our game is direct bookings because we put our customers' revenue first, so we've made embedding our Enquiry View as easy as possible.
Simply copy the code provided, ensuring you change the accommodation name to your own and you're away! Have a look below how it looks in action.

It's all about direct bookings with Inn Style
