Professional hospitality websites
used to be expensive.
Used to.
Built by a hotelier for other hoteliers.
We build the same quality website that used to cost thousands — and maintain it every month — for a price that finally makes sense for a small property.
Why does a hotel website
usually cost so much?
Not because it's complicated. Because traditional agencies have teams, offices and overheads to cover. We have something else instead.
Traditional web agency
Quote of €2,000–€10,000 just to build, then hourly billing for maintenance. You're paying for their overhead, not your website.
The "cheap" WordPress
Quick to start, but plugins, security and updates quickly become a time and money drain. Slow, vulnerable, never quite finished.
Do-it-yourself builders
Wix and Squarespace are built for designers, not hoteliers. Generic results, mediocre performance — and you do all the work yourself.
Pixelbee Solutions
We use modern tools to do in hours what an agency bills days for. The cost difference goes directly to you. Built specifically for the lodging business — not a generic solution adapted to fit. Battle-tested in a real hotel environment, with every feature designed around what hoteliers actually need.
One direct booking a month is enough.
Booking.com and OTAs take 15–25% commission on every booking. With your own website, every direct booking is yours in full. One direct booking of €100 per month from a well-performing website covers the monthly subscription fees.
What you get
for your money
An honest table. No boxes ticked just to look good.

When someone asks ChatGPT or Google's AI assistant to find a hotel near your area, your site needs to be understood — not just ranked. Every Pixelbee site includes structured markup (Schema.org, FAQPage, Speakable) so AI engines can accurately read your property's name, location, prices, and facilities. Most accommodation websites aren't built this way. Yours will be.
Built to the standard
we guarantee
We build and maintain our own hotel’s website using the same process, tools, and approach as every client project. Every claim we make, you can verify live.
Every property is different.
Your website should be too.
We build sites for small accommodation businesses. Four types, each with its own character — all on the same reliable foundation.
Chalet, cottage, villa, cabin
One property. One unit. Your guests book the whole place — there's no room comparison, no category carousel, no per-room rate table. The structure is built to match: one property presented in depth, an availability calendar, pricing per stay, maximum guest count. Not a hotel template reshaped to fit. Built for single-property rentals from day one.
View example →Independent hotel
Multiple room categories, each with its own photos, description and price. A seasonal rates table guests can scan before choosing. Possibly a restaurant. The structure handles all of it: room carousels per category, a tarifs table, restaurant section if needed, and a booking button linked to your existing engine. Everything a hotel guest expects, exactly where they look for it.
View example →Campsite & glamping
A campsite's inventory isn't rooms — it's pitch types, caravan hook-ups, glamping pods, shared facilities. The site structure reflects this: accommodation categories with photos and capacity, a facilities section, a seasonal rates table, and an activities section for the surrounding area. Designed for the way campsite guests actually research: on a phone, comparing options before committing to a week away.
View example →Gîte, B&B, chambre d'hôtes
One gîte, two gîtes, or a handful of chambres d'hôtes — the structure scales without turning into a hotel catalogue. Each unit gets its own photos, capacity and pricing. Offer breakfast or a table d'hôtes? There's a section for that. The host's presence is part of what guests are choosing, and the site is built to reflect it: more personal than a hotel page, more structured than a single-property rental.
View example →The same solid foundation,
every time.
Every website we build — regardless of property type — comes with the same core features. No hidden extras, no upgrade required.
Loads fast on any phone
Built as clean, lightweight code — no bloated platform, no WordPress, no plugins to slow it down. Your site loads in under two seconds on a mobile connection. Guests don't wait. They book.
Found on Google
Every site is built with search engines in mind from the first line of code. Proper page titles, structured descriptions, schema markup so Google understands your property — technical groundwork that most cheap website builders skip.
Found in AI-powered searches
When people ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google's AI for "a quiet chalet in the Alps" or "a family campsite in the Dordogne", well-structured sites with clear, question-ready content are the ones that get recommended. We build for this from the start.
Multiple languages
Your site is built in one language as standard. A second language — say, English for international guests — is available as an add-on for €5/month. Guests read in their own language; they're more likely to book when they do.
Nothing to update or get hacked
No database. No WordPress. No plugins. Nothing that needs patching, no login page for bots to attack. Your site is a set of plain files — robust by design, secure by default. It simply works.
Hosting included, no platform fees
Hosted on Cloudflare's global network — among the fastest and most reliable in the world, free tier, no monthly hosting bill. Domain is yours, in your name, on your own account. You own everything.
One free update every month
Changed your prices? New photos arrived? Want to update your opening dates? Send us a message and we handle it within five business days. No extra charge for one update per month — it's part of the service.
Works with your booking system
Already using Lodgify, Smoobu, Booking.com, or a direct booking form? We connect your site to whatever you use. No lock-in, no migration, no disruption — just a clean integration that sends guests where they need to go.
Transparent. No surprises.
No hidden fees. You know exactly what you pay from the start.

What hoteliers
ask us
-
How much does a hotel or B&B website actually cost?At Pixelbee Solutions, from €92 per month — with no setup fee. That's the full price: hosting, maintenance, technical SEO and all routine updates included. Traditional agencies often charge €2,000–€8,000 just to build the site, then €100–300/month for maintenance. We've removed the overheads that inflate those prices.
-
Can a genuinely custom site really cost this little?Yes — because we use modern tools that speed up production without touching quality. Every site is adapted to your property: your photos, your copy, your colours, your identity. It's not a generic template. The price difference comes from how we work, not from a compromise on the result.
-
Do I own my domain and website?Yes — your domain is registered in your name with your card, and your hosting account is in your name. If you complete your contract or move to a rolling arrangement, everything comes with you: domain, hosting, and full access. We never hold your assets hostage. If you exit the standard 24-month contract early, a source code transfer fee of €990 applies for handover of the website files. This protects the investment made in building your site. The 3-month trial has no such fee.
-
How long does the build take?The timeline starts when we receive your content (text and photos). You'll typically have a preview to review within 1–2 weeks. Two rounds of revisions are included. Most sites are live 3–4 weeks after we receive your content.
-
What if I already have a website that costs too much?That's the situation for many of our clients. If your current site works but you're paying an agency several hundred pounds a month, or you have a WordPress that drains time and money on plugins, we can often deliver an equivalent or better site for significantly less. Get in touch with your current situation.
-
Can I cancel?Our standard plan runs for 24 months — that's what keeps the monthly price low with no setup fee. The 3-month trial has no ongoing commitment; if you love it, you roll into a standard plan. We send a courtesy reminder 60 days before any renewal. If you leave, your domain and hosting account come with you — always.
Founded by someone
who also runs a hotel
Who we are
Pixelbee Solutions is a French micro-entreprise founded by Sami Ilkka. We operate seasonally in hospitality — which means we genuinely understand the reality: no spare time, no appetite for technology, and every euro needs to earn its keep.
We build websites that work — affordably, reliably, month after month — for properties in Finland, Sweden, France, and England.
How we work
We use the latest tools to produce in hours what a traditional agency bills days for. That cost difference goes directly to you — not into our overhead.
A human handles you. You always deal with one person who knows your property, answers your messages, and manages your site.
I built Pixelbee because I was on the other side of this — running a hotel in the south of France, paying too much for too little. Every feature we offer is something I've needed myself.
