Overview

The Jaigo Hotels success story in brief

Jaigo Hotels sells hotel stays directly to guests in Asia. In 2024 it refreshed its booking experience on PHPTRAVELS with one aim: make choosing a property and completing a reservation feel more intuitive.

The friction sat in three moments of the guest journey: filters that did not always match what guests were looking for, a listing too dense to compare rooms and rates, and a checkout that showed too much at once.

The refresh was built on the hotel booking module of the PHPTRAVELS platform. Hotel brands that sell direct can see the same tools on the hotel booking engine page.

The guest journey, in three stages

Stage 02: selection flow

Rooms and rates that are easy to compare

The listing was dense, and guests needed a cleaner way to compare rooms and rates. The refresh lines up what differs between rooms, so the choice is visible at a glance.

Stage 03: checkout clarity

A reservation step that shows one thing at a time

The final reservation steps presented too much information at once. The refreshed checkout splits the reservation into short steps and ends on a clear confirmation.
