About your hotel is the short text guests read under your hotel’s name on your page on otel.direct. Journey writes it from the facilities you confirmed; you read every word, change any of them, and approve it. Only an approved text is on your page. The section sits on Travel Agent → Your page on otel.direct.

​
What is on the screen

The section shows one of these, depending on where your text stands:

​
On your page in other languages

Under an approved text, one row for each language of your page — the languages of your Widget, and English. Each row has the language’s name, a word for where its text comes from, and the text itself: A row’s buttons: Change — or Write it yourself when there is nothing yet — and, where the text is yours, Use Journey’s translation. Translate again, above the rows, appears when a language has no translation.

​
What you do here

1

Choose the language you write in, then ask Journey

Press Ask Journey to write it. The draft comes back in the box. Or press Write it yourself and write it from scratch.
2

Read every word and change any of them

The text is yours once you approve it. Keep it between 20 and 700 characters. A web address, an e-mail or a phone number does not belong in it — your page has its own doors for those, and the screen says so if one is there.
3

Press Approve

Your page shows the text, and Journey translates it into your page’s other languages.
4

Not quite right? Press Write it again

Tell Journey what to change in the box that opens — shorter, warmer, more about the view — and press Write it again. Your approved text stays on your page until you approve the new draft. Keep the current text lets a draft go.
5

Change a translation

Press Change on a language’s row, edit the text and press Save. Keep every number, price and currency exactly as your approved text writes them: if one is missing or new, the screen says which and nothing is saved.
6

Update a text written for your earlier text

On a row marked Written for your earlier text, press Change: the box opens on your earlier words — bring them up to date and Save. Or press Use Journey’s translation.
7

Translate what is missing

Press Translate again. Journey translates your approved text into every language without a translation. Your own wording in a language is left as it is.
8

Take the text off your page

Press Remove from page, then Remove it.
Use Journey’s translation replaces your own wording in that language. The screen asks first — Keep mine leaves your text as it is.

​
What happens next

  • When you approve a text, your page shows it within a few minutes. The translations follow by themselves while the section shows Translating into …; a language that could not be translated just now is said, with Translate again.
  • Guests in another language read the translation, marked Approved by the hotel · Translated from your language, with the original one tap away. Your own wording in a language is shown the same way.
  • When you approve a new text, Journey translates it again. Your own wordings stay, marked Written for your earlier text, and guests read a new translation in those languages until you update yours.
  • When you remove the text, your page shows no text about your hotel. You can ask Journey to write a new one, or write one yourself, at any time.
  • Without edit access to the reservations setup you read the approved text and its translations, and have no buttons.
