Hotel website development for Bangladeshi properties, end to end
A hotel website is software, not a poster. Most BD properties pay for the poster.
Here is the problem I get called to fix more than any other in hotel website development in BD. A property in Cox's Bazar pays an agency 40,000 BDT for a "hotel website". It gets a slideshow of room photos and a contact form labelled "Check Availability". The owner goes live and feels sorted.
Six months later, the owner sees the truth. The form just dumps emails into an inbox the front desk opens twice a week. The rates on the site are from last Eid. Every real booking still comes through Agoda at 18 percent. The site was never broken. It just never did the one job a hotel website exists for: taking a booking. That gap between a poster and working software is why this work is worth doing properly.
I treat a hotel site as a small piece of booking software with a nice face on it. So the parts you cannot see get the most care. There is a room and date model that knows what is actually free tonight. There is a deposit flow linked to bKash and Nagad merchant accounts. A confirmation goes out by SMS and email the second the payment clears.
Then comes the part almost every BD hotel site skips. When a room sells on your own site, it closes at once on Booking.com and Agoda, and the other way round. Without that sync, the more bookings you win, the more double-sold rooms and angry walk-ins you create. The hotel web design BD properties really rely on lives in that calendar logic. Get it wrong, and the rest is just decoration.
I work as one person on purpose, and for hotels that is a strength. The owner of a guest house in Sreemangal or a hill resort in Bandarban gets the senior developer on every call. That same developer builds the rate calendar and tests the bKash deposit on a real phone. Nothing goes to a junior who has never watched a front desk manager juggle three OTA extranets at once.
Pricing is fixed and stated up front. It starts at 50,000 BDT. Most boutique and mid-size properties choose the 90,000 BDT tier. A full booking engine with logic for many room types is 1,50,000 BDT. Custom work with PMS or channel manager links for groups and chains starts from 3,00,000 BDT.
The deal is set up to protect you. You pay 50% advance to lock the build slot and 50% only on launch. You also get a design-approval guarantee in writing. If you do not approve the design, the second half is not owed, and we part as friends.
There is no yearly maintenance trap and no surprise plugin licence six months in. There is no panic that the developer has left, because the developer is me, and I am still here. Ask "hotel website bd e koto taka porbe?" and you get one fixed price for a set scope, not a moving target.
