### Why add room types?

**Benefits of detailed room information:**  
\- Travel agents can match rooms to client needs (*couples, families, groups*)  
\- Clients see exactly what they're booking  
\- Reduces back-and-forth communication  
\- Shows professionalism and attention to detail

**The more specific your room details, the easier it is for agents to book with confidence.**

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Before you start

Have ready for EACH room type:

\- \[  \] Room name (*Luxury Suite, Standard Room, etc*.)  
\- \[  \] Room description (*2-3 sentences*)  
\- \[  \] Number of rooms of this type  
\- \[  \] Bed configuration (*king, twin, queen, etc*.)  
\- \[  \] 4 - 6 photos of this specific room type  
\- \[  \] List of room-specific facilities

**Tip:** "Room type" means rooms that are identical or very similar. Don't create separate entries for each individual room number.

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Understanding room types

#### What is a room type?

A room type is a **category** of similar rooms, not individual room numbers.

**Examples:**  
\- **Luxury Suite** - 4 rooms (*all with king beds, balconies, river views*)  
\- **Standard Room** - 6 rooms (*all with twin beds, garden views*)  
\- **Family Unit** - 2 rooms (*all with 1 king + 2 singles, separate lounge*)

#### How many room types should I create?

Create one room type for each **distinct category** you offer.

**Example for a small lodge:**  
\- Luxury Suite (*4 rooms*)  
\- Standard Room (*6 rooms*)  
\- Honeymoon Suite (*1 room*)

Total: 3 room types covering 11 rooms

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Step 1: Access the sleeping arrangements section

If you're creating a new profile:  
1\. Complete all previous steps (*basic setup, photos, facilities, property details*)  
2\. You'll reach the **Sleeping Arrangements** section

![add rooms](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/How%20do%20I%20add%20room%20types%20and%20sleeping%20arrangements/add%20rooms.jpg?width=670&height=482&name=add%20rooms.jpg)

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Step 2: Add a sleeping arrangement

1\. Click "**Add sleeping arrangement**" (or "**Add room type**")

![click sleep room](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/How%20do%20I%20add%20room%20types%20and%20sleeping%20arrangements/click%20sleep%20room.gif?width=670&height=482&name=click%20sleep%20room.gif)

A form will open for you to enter room details.

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Step 3: Enter room information

#### Room Name

Give this room type a clear, descriptive name.

**Good examples:**  
\- Luxury River Suite

\- Honeymoon Tent  
\- Executive Room

**Avoid:**  
\- Room 1, Room 2 (*too specific*)

\- Budget option (*negative connotation*)

![Room name](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/How%20do%20I%20add%20room%20types%20and%20sleeping%20arrangements/Room%20name.jpg?width=670&height=199&name=Room%20name.jpg)

#### Room Description

Write 2-4 sentences describing this room type.

**What to include:**  
\- Size (*square meters if known*)  
\- Bed configuration  
\- Key features (*balcony, view, etc.*)  
\- Ambiance and style  
\- Special amenities

![room escription](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/How%20do%20I%20add%20room%20types%20and%20sleeping%20arrangements/room%20escription.jpg?width=670&height=284&name=room%20escription.jpg)

#### Room Type Selection

Select the category that best describes this room.

**Common room types:**  
\- Suite  
\- Standard Room  
\- Deluxe Room  
\- Family Room  
\- Honeymoon Suite  
\- Twin Room  
\- Single Room  
\- Dormitory  
\- Apartment  
\- Villa  
\- Tent (f*or safari camps*)  
\- Chalet  
\- Bungalow

![room type](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/How%20do%20I%20add%20room%20types%20and%20sleeping%20arrangements/room%20type.gif?width=670&height=482&name=room%20type.gif)

#### Number of Rooms

Specify how many rooms of this exact type you have.

**Example:**  
\- If you have 4 identical Luxury Suites → Enter **4**  
\- If you have 1 unique Honeymoon Suite → Enter **1**

**![rooms number](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/How%20do%20I%20add%20room%20types%20and%20sleeping%20arrangements/rooms%20number.jpg?width=670&height=130&name=rooms%20number.jpg)**

**Remember:** This is rooms of THIS type, not total rooms in your property.

#### Room Configuration

Select the bed setup for this room type.

**Common configurations:**  
\- King bed  
\- Queen bed  
\- Twin beds (*2 singles*)  
\- Double bed  
\- 1 King + 1 Single  
\- 1 King + 2 Singles (*family*)  
\- 2 Queen beds  
\- 3+ Singles (*dormitory*)  
\- Sofa bed  
\- Custom (*specify in description*)

![config](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/How%20do%20I%20add%20room%20types%20and%20sleeping%20arrangements/config.gif?width=670&height=482&name=config.gif)

**Important:** Be accurate - agents match families and groups based on this info.

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Step 4: Add room photos

Upload 4 - 6 images specific to THIS room type.

1\. Click "**Drop files**" or "**Upload photos**"  
2\. Select 4 - 6 images of this room type  
3\. Click "**Open**"

![Add photo](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/How%20do%20I%20add%20room%20types%20and%20sleeping%20arrangements/Add%20photo.jpg?width=670&height=482&name=Add%20photo.jpg)

#### What room photos to include

**Essential shots:**  
1\. **Overall room view** - Wide shot showing bed and layout  
2\. **Bathroom** - En-suite facilities (very important)  
3\. **Special feature** - Balcony, view, seating area, etc.

**Optional additional shots:**  
4\. **Detail shots** - Amenities, decor, special touches  
5\. **View from room** - What guests see from windows/deck

**Different room types need different photos** - Don't reuse the same photos for all room types unless they're truly identical.

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Step 5: Select room facilities

1\. **Tick ALL facilities** available in this room type  
2\. Be honest - only select what you actually provide

**Important:** Select room-specific facilities here. Property-wide facilities (*like main pool or restaurant*) go in the general property facilities section.

### Step 7: Add additional room types

If you have multiple room categories, repeat Steps 2-6 for each one.

**Example: Adding a second room type**

1\. Click the  "**+** **Add another**" button  
2\. Enter details for your next room type   
3\. Upload different photos  
4\. Select facilities

![add another room](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/How%20do%20I%20add%20room%20types%20and%20sleeping%20arrangements/add%20another%20room.jpg?width=670&height=482&name=add%20another%20room.jpg)

**Continue until you've added ALL your room types.**

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Step 8: Review and continue

Once all room types are added:

1\. Review the list to ensure all types are included  
2\. Verify quantities add up to your total room count  
3\. Click "**Next**" (or "**Save**" if editing existing profile)

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Managing room types

#### Editing an existing room type

1\. In the **Sleeping Arrangements** section  
2\. Find the room type you want to edit  
3\. Click "**Edit**" or the pencil icon  
4\. Make your changes  
5\. Click "**Save**"

![edit rooms](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/How%20do%20I%20add%20room%20types%20and%20sleeping%20arrangements/edit%20rooms.jpg?width=670&height=482&name=edit%20rooms.jpg)

#### Deleting a room type

1\. Find the room type in your list  
2\. Click "**Delete**" or the trash icon  
3\. Confirm deletion

**Warning:** This removes the room type entirely. If you're renovating or temporarily closing rooms, update the quantity instead of deleting.

#### Updating room quantities

If you add or remove physical rooms:

1\. Edit the affected room type  
2\. Update the "**Number of rooms**" field  
3\. Save changes

### Common room type scenarios

#### Scenario 1: Identical rooms in different locations

**Question:** I have 4 river-view suites and 4 garden-view suites. Same size and features, just different views. One room type or two?

**Answer:** Create TWO room types:  
\- Luxury River-View Suite (4 rooms)  
\- Luxury Garden-View Suite (4 rooms)

**Why:** The view is a significant differentiator that affects booking decisions.

#### Scenario 2: Minor variations within a type

**Question:** My 6 Standard Rooms are mostly identical, but 2 have bathtubs and 4 have showers only. One type or two?

**Answer:** Consider creating TWO room types:  
\- Standard Room with Bathtub (2 rooms)  
\- Standard Room with Shower (4 rooms)

**Alternative:** Create one type and mention variation in description: "Standard Rooms feature either bathtub or walk-in shower"

#### Scenario 3: Honeymoon or special suites

**Question:** I have 1 unique Honeymoon Suite that's completely different from my other rooms. Should I create a room type for just 1 room?

**Answer:** YES - Create a distinct room type:  
\- Honeymoon Suite (1 room)

**Why:** This allows you to showcase its unique features and facilities separately.

#### Scenario 4: Interconnecting rooms

**Question:** I have 2 Family Units that are each 2 interconnecting Standard Rooms. How do I list these?

**Answer:** Create a Family Unit room type:  
\- Family Unit (2 units)  
\- Configuration: 1 King + 2 Twins (or "2 interconnecting rooms")  
\- Description: Mention the interconnecting setup

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Best practices

#### Room naming

**Do:**  
\- Use descriptive names (*Luxury, Standard, Deluxe, Family*)  
\- Include key differentiators (*River-View, Garden-View*)  
\- Keep names concise but informative

**Don't:**  
\- Use numbers (*Room 1, Room 2*)  
\- Use internal codes (*RSK, RDT*)  
\- Be vague (*Nice Room, Good Room)*

#### Room descriptions

**Do:**  
\- Mention size (*square meters*)  
\- Describe the view or location within property  
\- Highlight special features  
\- Use sensory language (*spacious, intimate, sun-drenched*)  
\- Include functional details (*work desk, seating area*)

**Don't:**  
\- Copy the same description for all room types  
\- Use generic language that could apply to any hotel  
\- Forget to mention the bathroom setup  
\- Include pricing (*that goes elsewhere*)

#### Room photos

**Do:**  
\- Use room-specific photos for each type  
\- Include bathroom shots (*travelers care about this!*)  
\- Show the view from the room if it's a selling point  
\- Ensure photos are well-lit and staged  
\- Update photos after renovations

**Don't:**  
\- Reuse the same photos for different room types  
\- Skip bathroom photos  
\- Use dark or poorly lit images  
\- Show unmade beds or clutter

[back to top](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-add-room-types-and-sleeping-arrangements#back_to_top)

### Troubleshooting

**I have too many room variations to list separately**  
Focus on the main differentiators (*bed type, view, size class*) and group minor variations. Mention variations in descriptions.

**Room configurations don't match my beds**  
Choose the closest option and clarify in the description. For unique setups, use "Custom" if available or describe in detail.

**I can't upload photos for a specific room type**  
\- Check file sizes (25*MB each and not below 2MB*)  
\- Verify format (*JPG or PNG*)  
\- Image resolution above 2MP  
\- Try uploading fewer images at once  
\- Contact support if the issue persists

**How do I show rooms can interconnect?**  
\- Mention in the room description  
\- Consider creating a specific "Family Unit" room type if you have interconnecting pairs

**Do I need to update room types seasonally?**  
Only if the actual rooms change (*e.g., tents vs. permanent structures*). Otherwise, just update photos if needed.
