The Google Hotel connection

Prerequisites

As this connection cannot be made from your Amenitiz Extranet, you need to contact our support team to be connected to Google Hotel.
Before the connection, here are the prerequisites to set up on your side:

• If you don't have one yet, create a Google My Business Profile. Note that it may take several days for Google to validate your location if you are creating it.
  
  
• The category of your property on your Google My Business profile must be hotel, guest house, or bed and breakfast.
  The 'Vacation Rental' properties are not allowed to have free booking links (flats, cottages etc).
  You can change the category from your Google profile, they will accept this change if 2 of these sentences are true:
  
  Have a front desk where new arrivals check in?
  Have permanent on-site management?
  Welcome walk-in customers?
  
  
• Fill in your address information in the Property > General tab of your Amenitiz extranet. This address must be the same as the one you have on your Google My Business page so that Google can validate this connection.
  Click here to see more information on the Google My Business page if you have any doubts.
  
  
• Your domain name must be added on your Google My business page, you can see if it appears properly if you have a "Website" icon at the top of your Google My Business page.
