As a default, the Book Now button on your website links to the NightsBridge booking form where guests can search for availability.
If you would like your potential guests to search for availability for a specified period on your website before carrying on with booking, you can add our Date Widget.
How does the Date Widget work?
- The Date Widget is an interactive addition to a website that allows the visitor to choose an arrival and departure date and check for availability for that date range on your NightsBridge booking form.
- There can only be one Date Widget per page.

Some advantages of using the Date Widget on your website
- Some guests may see a "Book Now" button as too definite so they may not have a look at your booking form due to this. Searching for availability with the Date Widget can give guests a lesser sense of finality when thinking of booking.
- The Date Widget can help prevent issues where guests forget to choose their dates on the booking form e.g. guests booking for same day or next day, instead of a future date.
