Trust through native language
Guests feel understood and book more readily when everything is in their language.
Hotel feature
Multilingual guest experience: your hotel in Italian and English
Work is planned in short stages with a demo at the end of each, so you can change course early. From the website through booking to the confirmation e-mail: every guest reads your hotel in the language they are most comfortable with. Hotel software for Italy has to think in several languages: the hotel booking system from Globalsoft meets your guests in Italian and English.

Why language is more than a detail in Italy
Italy has several national languages and guests arrive from all over the world. A hotel in Milan speaks to its guests differently from one in Genoa or Firenze. If your website is English only, you lose guests who want to search and book in their own language. Language builds trust, and trust leads to a booking.
It matters for findability too: Google shows guests the page in their language when each version has its own address and is marked up correctly.
How we build multilingual websites
We build each language version as its own page with its own address, title and description, and mark it with hreflang so search engines understand how the versions relate. Texts are adapted to the language and to the hotel trade.
The guest stays in their language all the way: website, booking engine, confirmation, pre-arrival reminder and thank-you e-mail. Your team sees the chosen language in the PMS and can reply accordingly.
Your benefits
Better findability
Separate addresses and hreflang help Google show each guest the right version.
One language throughout
From the website to the thank-you e-mail, the guest's language stays the same.
Expandable
We add more languages, including right-to-left ones like Arabic, as needed.

Frequently asked questions
How many languages should my hotel website have?
For Italy, Italian and English are a very good base. Further languages depend on your main source markets.
Do you translate content automatically?
No. We write the texts carefully for each language, suited to the hotel trade. On request we take over your own texts.
What does hreflang do?
With hreflang, Google knows which language version suits which guest, so the right page appears in search results.
