You can update both the banner image and colour theme of your Little Hotelier booking engine. To personalise your direct booking engine's appearance, add a banner image and select a color theme that aligns with your property’s branding.
Add a banner image
To attract guests and encourage bookings, the banner image on your booking engine should be visually engaging. Consider using it to highlight your property's key features, showcase scenic views from or around your location or promote special offers.

Choose an image from your Media library or select Upload images to add a new one
Click Publish changes
Set the colour theme
To maintain a consistent brand experience, align your booking engine's color theme with your property's brand identity and website color scheme.
The colour theme you select will appear prominently throughout your booking engine, including navigation elements and call-to-action buttons.
Navigate to Direct booking > Configuration > Branding
Find and click the pencil icon next to Theme

How long do changes take to appear on my booking engine?
When you make updates, changes usually appear immediately on your booking engine, but in some cases may take up to ten minutes. If your booking engine is still not reflecting changes after an update, wait a few minutes, then clear your cookies and cache, and try again in a new browser window.
