Can Webflow integrate with a hotel booking calendar plugin or use custom codes for that purpose?

Yes, Webflow can integrate with a hotel booking calendar plugin either through third-party tools or by embedding custom code solutions. Webflow doesn’t have a native booking engine, but it supports external integration methods.

1. Use Third-Party Booking Platforms

• Choose a Hotel Booking System like Lodgify, Cloudbeds, Guesty, or Little Hotelier. These typically offer embeddable booking widgets or iFrames.
• Embed the Booking Widget into Webflow by copying the code snippet from the booking platform and pasting it into an Embed element on your Webflow page.
• Make sure the widget is responsive or customize it with CSS for better compatibility with various screen sizes.

2. Use Booking Tools with External Integration

• Platforms like Calendly or Tock offer limited booking capabilities that can sometimes work for simple room bookings.
• Tools like Checkfront or ResNexus offer more advanced calendaring, availability, and pricing logic tailored to hotel use cases.
• These services include JavaScript embed codes that work well inside Webflow.

3. Use Custom Code with APIs

• You can connect external booking APIs (e.g., via Checkfront, Cloudbeds API, or even a custom backend).
• Add the code using the Embed element or in Project Settings > Custom Code.
• For dynamic availability, you'll usually need to write JavaScript and manage data fetching, error handling, and calendar rendering yourself.
• Hosting room inventory and logic outside Webflow is recommended, since Webflow doesn't support server-side processing.

4. Integrate with Zapier or Make

• Use Zapier or Make (Integromat) to connect Webflow form submissions to booking tools like Google Calendar, Booking.com, or your CRM.
• Not ideal for real-time room availability, but effective for lead-based workflows or reservation requests.

5. Consider Using Webflow CMS for Listing Rooms Only

• Use Webflow CMS to display rooms and descriptions, image galleries, and price info.
• Link the “Book Now” buttons to an external booking engine or widget tied to the specific room ID or slug.

Summary

Webflow doesn’t have a built-in hotel booking system, but you can integrate external booking calendars using third-party widgets, JavaScript APIs, or custom embeds. Choose a booking provider that supports embeddable code and integrates well with static site builders. For real-time availability and calendar syncing, advanced services like Cloudbeds or Checkfront with custom code are recommended.
