Configure the Guest Homepage

The guest homepage settings are the HOME configuration side of Guest Experience Platform. Managers use them to control the guest-facing entry point for property information, services, promotions, and links into guest workflows.

GEP itself is broader than this settings page. The guest app renders the homepage and can route guests into Assistance Requests, Catalogue V3, Facility Booking, digital compendium content, and promotions.

Before You Start​

  • Confirm the property content owner.
  • Prepare approved guest-facing text and images.
  • Confirm which services should be visible to guests.
  • Confirm whether the homepage should route guests into Assistance Requests, Catalogue V3, or Facility Booking.
  • Confirm required guest form fields, rating questions, hotel information categories, and promotion content before publishing guest-facing links.

Configure the Homepage​

  1. Go to HOME -> Guest Homepage Settings.
  2. Start with General to review the default homepage presentation.
  3. Move through the side-menu sections for Assistance, Rate Us, Activity, Facilities, Things To Do, Hotel Info, Promotion, and Revbooster.
  4. Update titles, descriptions, images, icon labels, and visible actions.
  5. Set the Request Amenities tab order if the property wants a custom sequence for those guest options.
  6. Enable or disable content according to the property go-live plan.
  7. Check language fields and section-level language selectors if the property supports more than one guest language.
  8. Save changes.
  9. Open the phone preview for the section you changed.
  10. Open the guest-facing page and confirm the real guest flow behaves as expected.

Test Guest Navigation​

Use the phone preview while editing, then test the guest page itself. The preview helps managers catch missing labels, images, and obvious layout issues before publishing. The live guest page is still the final check because it confirms the actual guest landing page, linked pages, reusable form fields, and destination flows.

When testing, confirm:

  • The landing page opens for the correct property.
  • Generic content pages show the intended title, body, images, and action buttons.
  • Service icons open the intended Assistance, Catalogue V3, Facility Booking, digital compendium, or content page.
  • Guest inputs such as text fields, counters, dates, times, ratings, image uploads, and required fields appear with clear labels.
  • Hotel Info and Things To Do language selectors show the expected language choices and update the displayed copy.
  • The language picker shows the expected language choices and does not expose incomplete translated content.

Publishing Checks​

  • Confirm outdated promotions are hidden.
  • Confirm the General homepage view has the correct property presentation.
  • Confirm service icons use guest-friendly labels and open the intended destination.
  • Confirm Request Amenities tabs appear in the configured order for the property.
  • Confirm guest actions go to the right flow, such as Assistance Requests, Catalogue V3, or Facility Booking.
  • For Hotel Info content, confirm every policy has a category before saving. If any rows are missing a category, HOME shows a warning and the guest app category grouping stays hidden until the rows are updated.
  • Confirm required language fields do not show blank content.
  • Confirm the page works on a mobile screen.

Troubleshooting​

A homepage item does not appear for guests​

What you see: Managers saved a section, but guests do not see it.

Do this:

  1. Confirm the section is enabled.
  2. Check required fields such as title, image, and action link.
  3. Check language fields for the guest language being tested.
  4. Refresh the guest page.

Preview looks correct but the live guest page is wrong​

What you see: The phone preview shows the expected content, but the guest page opens a different page or old content.

Do this:

  1. Confirm the manager saved the section after previewing it.
  2. Confirm the guest is opening the correct property landing page or QR code.
  3. Check whether the service icon points to the intended guest flow.
  4. Refresh the guest page and test again on a mobile browser.

Hotel Info shows a missing category warning​

What you see: HOME shows a warning that some Hotel Info policies do not have a category selected.

Do this:

  1. Open the Hotel Info Content tab.
  2. Assign a category to each policy listed in the warning.
  3. Save the content again.
  4. If you uploaded a spreadsheet, check whether the Category column was blank or did not match an existing category name.
  5. Refresh the page and confirm the warning is gone.
