Accommodation Businesses (South Wales)

 Membership from £12.00 + Vat Per Month

Accommodation Businesses (South Wales)

We welcome all types of accommodation providers into membership of MWT Cymru, including:

  • Hotels, B&Bs, Guest Accommodation and Restaurants with Rooms
  • Self Catering and Exclusive Hire
  • Glamping
  • Hostels, Group accommodation, Bunkhouses and Campus accommodation

Whether you're thinking of starting an accommodation business, or want to attract more guests to your existing business, MWT can help.
​

We can help you get more direct business

MWT is not a booking agency. On our visitor website, www.showmewales.co.uk we publicise your businesses direct links including website, email, telephone number and social media links. Businesses also have the option to use the online booking element via Guestlink (10% commission). 

Members update listings via the Guestlink platform (if you're graded, this will also update your entry on the Visit Wales website).  We provide lots of help and support to do this.

Our aim is to generate more direct business for you.
​
Members receive discounts for online booking software with Guestlink+, Eviivo and FreetoBook and we also provide discounted web builds for members, and MUCH MORE!

Membership is a great way to  feel connected to the industry.

Our 5 day a week (friendly) helpline is here for you too! If you have any questions  then please do not hesitate to give the team a call and if we can't answer your query , we probably know who can - save yourself time and frustration and get the answer you're looking for from a real person.

Our experienced team have worked in tourism for many years, either through associations or running their own businesses. Zoe, our Operations and Digital Manager, still runs her accommodation  business, so we know how hard it can be to juggle that work-life balance.

Make your life easier and become a member of MWT.



Are there other strands to your business?

Food, Drink, Retail, Attractions and Activities
If your accommodation has a restaurant open to non-residents, for example; a café or shop on-site - you can benefit from a separate web entry so visitors can easily find you on a website search, and you can also be part of our innovative Show Me Wales app. Simply choose the multi-business option on the joining form. 

Wedding & Conference Venues
If your accommodation business provides a venue for weddings, meetings or conferences, make sure you let us know so you can benefit from an entry on this section of our websites, too. Choose the multi-business option on the joining form.
​

Accommodation FAQs

what's the cost to join?
The cost depends on your type of business and how big you are - the online joining form will calculate it for you when you fill in your details, or you can click here for membership fees.

If you wish to take bookings online (which we recommend) please note that you will need a card payment provider to manage your payments - we can point you in the right direction, e.g. Stripe, Card Cutters, Kashing. Different providers charge different commission which is additional to your MWT membership fee.

If you wish to take bookings on your own website and other sites such as Booking.com, we have negotiated discounts for our members with Guestlink+, Eviivo and Freeto Book platforms. 
​
Can I join MWT if I'm with an agency?
Yes, you can. We are not an accommodation agency ourselves; we don't take bookings for you. We give you the platforms to deal directly with visitors yourself and manage your own bookings. Some members are with agencies and join MWT to support the destination marketing work we do to promote Mid Wales, to stay in the loop and network with other businesses, and get top-up, commission free referrals on top of their agency bookings.
I have been a member of MWT Cymru for many years and they have been a great help to me in growing my business.
