As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words – so a few choice photos are a great way to let your guests know that your accommodation is what they’re looking for. Focus on including good quality images, and avoid photos that are blurry or distorted.
Remember: You might have spent ages choosing cushions and door knobs, but try not to include pictures that only show a small part of the space. The guest wants to see as broad an image of the accommodation as possible.
How to get started
Click the Accommodation tab at the top of the page, and select Galleries from the menu on the left hand side.
Please note: If you cannot see galleries in your Accommodation tab its because your user level does not have access to this. You will need to contact someone in the business with owner status. See more here about users
You will then see this screen. You can either drag and drop images from your desktop into the white box or if you click in the box you can then upload the images from your computer. Once the images are uploaded they will have ticks against them.
Please Note: You will not be able to click on Galleries until you have loaded at least one image.
Once you have loaded your images go to the Galleries tab and click Create new Gallery. You will then see this screen
Give your gallery a name, this could be the individual room name or Twin rooms etc. NB: No guests will see the gallery name.
Tick the room or rooms this gallery relates too.
Then tick the box next to the images you want to include in this gallery, there is a select all photos button at the top if you wanted to use all the images you've uploaded in the same gallery.
Ignore the tick box which says Make this your showcase? for now, we will explain more about that below.
Then press the Green button which says Save Changes.
Once you have saved the gallery you will then see all the pictures associated to the gallery and the gallery name on the galleries page, like this
You can drag and drop the pictures into a different order by clicking on them and moving them from this screen. They will show to the guest booking in the order they are seen here.
To add a new room gallery, press the Green Create New Gallery button and repeat the process above.
Please Note: You can only have one gallery assigned to a room.
Top tip: Inn Style displays your images in landscape, so it’s best to avoid portrait or square images. Try to use landscape images that are 1400 x 788 pixels (width x height) with a file size no larger than 2MB. If your images are too large, try resizing them in bulk using Photoshop or the default image editor on your Mac/PC.
Showcase Galleries
If you use Stripe or Gift Vouchers then the image displayed on the checkout page and the Gift Voucher page is the first image in your Showcase Gallery.
