Accommodations
The Accommodations page (/app/travel/hotel) lets you publish on your tourism site a directory of establishments (hotels, apartments, guest houses) that your community recommends to travelers: local partners, trusted addresses, kosher accommodations spotted nearby.
It's the showcase tourists consult when they prepare their stay and look for a place to sleep near your Beth Habad or synagogue.
Prerequisites
- You have at least one tourism site created in Unisoft.
- You have the Tourism permission (
travel) on your account. - The right site is selected in the top right of the page via the site selector (the Tourism module is multi-site: everything you configure applies to the active site).
Page overview
The Accommodations page consists of two distinct blocks:
- Categories (top) — labels you define to classify your accommodations: « Hotel », « Apartment », « Guest house », « B&B »… Shown as clickable tags.
- Accommodation list (bottom) — a reorderable table where each row represents an establishment with its thumbnail, name, category, address, contacts and actions.
In the top right of the list, a « View live » button opens the matching public page of your tourism site to check rendering on the visitor side.
Categories
Categories serve only to visually organize your directory on the public side: a visitor can, on the public page, filter by « Apartment » or « Hotel » to see only establishments of that type.

About the image gallery
- You can add several images of the same establishment (exterior, room, common area…).
- Images are reorderable by drag and drop in the gallery.
- The thumbnail (image marked with a full star) is the one shown:
- in the admin list (« Image » column, 50×50 thumbnail);
- in the public grid on the tourism site (establishment card).
- The other images are accessible in the detail page of the accommodation on the public side (carousel or full gallery).
- If you haven't designated a thumbnail, the first image in the gallery is used by default.
The accommodations table
The list displays, for each accommodation:
| Column | Content |

| Image | The thumbnail (or first image), clickable to open in large size. |
| Name | The establishment's name, with the green « Kosher » badge underneath if applicable. |
| Category | Blue tag matching the category. |

| Actions | Edit (pencil) or Delete (trash, with confirmation). |

Public-side display
On the visitor side, accommodations appear on the public accommodations page of your tourism site (typically accessible from the site's main menu).
- Card grid: one card per establishment, with its thumbnail, name, « Kosher » badge if applicable, category, abbreviated address and contacts.
- Detail page: a click on a card opens a dedicated page with the full image gallery, the rich description, the geocoded map, all contacts and the « Book online » button if a URL is set.
- Filters: visitors can filter the grid by category (the blue tags you've created).
The « View live » button at the top of the admin list opens this public page directly in a new tab — useful for immediately checking the rendering after a change.
Typical use cases
List your hotel partners
Your community has an agreement with two neighborhood hotels that offer preferential rates to visitors sent by the Beth Habad. Create a « Partner » category, add the two hotels with a nice gallery, mention the promo code in the description and publish.
List the community's furnished rentals
Several families in the community occasionally rent their apartment to visitors. Create a « Community rentals » category, add each apartment with photo, address, indicative price in the description and the host family's number as WhatsApp contact.
Offer a neighborhood overview
Your Beth Habad welcomes many tourists who don't know where to stay. List the 5–10 kosher (or kosher-friendly) accommodations of the neighborhood — even those with whom you have no commercial agreement. It's a service to travelers, with no commitment on your part.
