Event registration with hotel accommodations

I’m looking to create events such as expos, dance camps, and classes that allow both event registration as well as options for hotel accommodations.

For example, the user would sign up for a specific dance camp and then be able to pick his/her hotel room while at camp.

Is this possible with your plugin?

Thanks!!

It’s certainly possible to use the Multiple Event Registration add-on in combination with the Seating Chart add-on to allow what you are describing. However, we don’t have any backend api communication with a hotel booking service. What are your expectations as far as what happens after the customer chooses a hotel room? Are you reserving a block of rooms from the hotel, or would you redirect the customer to the hotel’s website to complete their reservation?

Basically we’d purchase a bunch of rooms from the hotel and we’d like for the person who’s registering to be able to pick from that group of rooms.

We don’t need an API or anything since we’re not looking to connect to any 3rd part hotel reservation websites.

So the user would pick the event, fill out the forms, choose the hotel room and make their payment.

Thanks for your help!

What you would need to do is create the hotel room bookings as an event (possibly in combination with the Seating Chart add-on as Sidney mentioned to handle individual rooms) and use the Multi Event Registration add-on to handle adding a room reservation to the event registration checkout.

Sounds like it’s possible then. So far you’re system is the only that has been able to accomplish this. Thanks so much for answering my questions, I’ll most likely be purchasing your software later this week. Thanks again!!
