Getting Started with Basefloor
This guide walks you through setting up Basefloor for your hotel chain from scratch — from your first login to accepting reservations.
Step 1 — Access Your Instance
When your hotel chain is onboarded to Basefloor, you receive a unique subdomain:
https://your-brand.basefloor.appOpen this URL in your browser. You will be taken to the login page for your chain's instance.
Each hotel chain has its own isolated Basefloor instance. Your staff can only access your chain's subdomain.
Step 2 — Log In
Use the credentials provided by your Basefloor administrator to log in. If you are the first user (chain owner), your credentials were sent to you by email when your account was created.
- Email: your registered work email
- Password: set during initial account setup or via the password reset email
Step 3 — Create Your First Property
A Property represents a single hotel or venue in your chain.
- From the dashboard, click Properties in the left sidebar
- Click Add Property
- Fill in the required details:
- Property name
- Physical address
- Contact email and phone
- Country and time zone
- Click Save
Your first property is now live inside your Basefloor instance.
Step 4 — Configure Rooms
