How to complete the "Restaurants" section in a KOOB hotel factsheet ?

The Restaurants section in KOOB allows DMCs to define and describe the hotel's dining options. This ensures that Tour Operators (TOs) have accurate and detailed information about the available restaurants within the property, helping them match hotels with their clients' dining preferences.

✅ List and manage all restaurants within a hotel.
✅ Define seating capacity and facilities to support group and individual bookings.
✅ Highlight key dining features such as cuisine type, buffet service, or bar options.
✅ Provide high-quality descriptions and images to enhance restaurant visibility.
✅ Translate restaurant details into multiple languages for global TOs.

🚀 Objective: Learn how to properly enter, manage, and translate hotel restaurant information in KOOB to optimize the hotel factsheet.

 

General overview of the restaurant management page

  • Displays a list of available restaurants in tabs at the top (e.g., “The Square Restaurant”).
  • The "+ Add" button allows users to create a new restaurant entry.
  • Each restaurant includes details such as name, capacity, facilities, general description, images, and translations.

📌 Note: A well-structured restaurant section ensures clarity and improves the quality of the factsheet for the TO.

 

Restaurant information section

Restaurant Name

  • Enter the official name of the restaurant (e.g., The Square).
  • If the hotel has multiple restaurants, each should have a separate entry with its own details.

Capacity

  • Defines the maximum number of guests the restaurant can accommodate at one time.
  • Use the plus (+) and minus (-) buttons to adjust the seating capacity.

💡 Tip: This is important for TOs handling group bookings or events that require specific seating arrangements.

 

Restaurant facilities

  • A searchable dropdown allows users to add key facilities available at the restaurant.
  • The "OTHERS" field lets you manually enter additional facilities not listed in the dropdown.

✅ Example Facilities:

  • 🍽️ Fine Dining – Premium à la carte experience.
  • 🍹 Bar & Lounge – Cocktails, wines, and spirits available.
  • 🍱 Buffet Service – Breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffet.
  • 🌿 Vegetarian/Vegan Options – Special dietary menus.
  • 🌍 International Cuisine – Multi-cuisine dining experience.

💡 Tip: Adding detailed facilities helps TOs quickly identify whether the restaurant matches their clients' dietary and dining preferences.

 

General information (restaurant description & translation)

  • A rich text editor allows you to enter a detailed restaurant description.
  • Use bold, bullet points, and formatting tools to structure the content clearly.
  • Translate the description into multiple languages to enhance accessibility for international TOs.

How to add translations ?

KOOB allows you to add translations for restaurant descriptions, ensuring accessibility for global TOs.

  • Click the flag icon in the top-right corner of the page.
  • Select the desired language from the dropdown menu.

  • Enter the translated version of the restaurant details.
  • Click Save to confirm.

📌 Note: The default language is English, but multiple translations can be added as needed.

 

Best practices for writing a description

  • Start with a unique selling point (e.g., theme, ambiance, location).
  • Highlight signature dishes or cuisines (e.g., Thai, Italian, Japanese).
  • Mention special dining experiences (e.g., rooftop dining, open-kitchen concept).
  • Specify opening hours, buffet options, or live entertainment if relevant.

✅ Example Description:
"Experience the vibrant atmosphere of Thai street markets at the newly revamped restaurant, The Square! With expansive street views of Siam Square, the contemporary and stylish surroundings will give you an insight into the energetic and lively local Thai culture. Located on the 2nd floor of Hotel Bangkok, The Square is known for a wide array of international delights. From Thai to Italian to Japanese, we offer the best food with excellent quality."

💡 Tip: A well-written description improves the chances of hotel selection by TOs who need dining details for their clients.
