Default Hotel Website

Grande Prairie Inn Hotel

Comments, Suggestions, Review, etc

Do you think the nav and logo add or subtract to the rest of the design?

Thanks

Need more photos of place other than the rooms.
Restaurant, pool, igloo, ski jump, ice skating rink, etc.

Very dark motif and I think it should be lighter, brighter, happier.

I hated the reservation system. Very slow to load. I suspect they have not upgraded to CF8 and they need to.

Your homepage title tag is too short.
Your description tag is too verbose and does use enough keywords.
Your keyword tag has way too many (and useless) keywords.

The reservation page: yes, very, very slow until the 'script in this movie is causing .. Flash .. to run slowly... your computer may become unresponsive' warning.

I think it's time to talk to ihotelier.com

I like your design, you get a little bit distracted by the wood stuff in the background, but it looks nice. Try using smaller fonts in your logo, I think it's too big.

Need better photos of the rooms. For some reason, it really bothers me that in every picture the curtains are drawn close.

i think this is the best website so far i've seen in this section... i don't even know where people are getting anything negative to say about it... i glanced over it and everything appears nice and the reservation system loads up in a good amount of time...maybe some people should check their internet connection ... instead of blaming it on the website

califmerchant - if they only want customers with a fast internet connection, then yes, it's a great site.

It is slow...And if everyone says so...It just is...

I must say I rather like the looks...But it is not that spectaculair that it is worth waiting for. Reduce the sizes of all your images maybe helps.

I like the looks although it is a bit dark. I would put the phone number in the header and have it on every page.
