Successfully Setting Up GuestGoodie
Welcome to GuestGoodie! This guide will walk you through the first important steps to optimally set up GuestGoodie for your hotel.
What You Need Before Starting
Before you begin the setup, make sure you have at least the following information ready:
- Hotel Information: Hotel name, currency, time zone
- User Information: Name, email or Google account
- Branding Materials: Logo, brand color
Step 1: Create User Account
- Create a user on the registration page
- Fill out all user information or register with Google
- Confirm your details
- You will receive a verification code for your email that you must enter in the field
If you already have a user account, you can use it with multiple hotels. Simply click on your hotel in the bottom left of the back office and click "New Hotel".

Step 2: Create Hotel
- After successfully creating your user account, you can immediately create a hotel
- Fill out all requested hotel information. All data except the subdomain and name can be changed later
- For the logo, you will be asked to crop it to a square, as this is also used as an icon on the internet
- Click "Create" and your guest app will be prepared for you
- Your guest app is automatically created in "Test Phase". This means you have 30 days to test GuestGoodie for free. Once you're convinced by GuestGoodie, click the button at the top of your back office screen
Your guest app is already available at
https://[YOUR_SUBDOMAIN].guestgoodie.com, but it's currently
empty.
Now you just need to personalize it and make it your own.
