Hotel & Hospitality
Photography

Professional photography and Matterport 3D virtual tours for luxury hotels, boutique B&Bs, restaurants, wedding venues, and hospitality groups across the UK. Imagery that wins direct bookings, reduces OTA commission, and gives event planners everything they need to book without visiting.

For a deeper look at each format, see the dedicated pages for Matterport 3D scanning, Bespoke 360° tours, and Google Street View, or visit the virtual tours hub.

Why It's Different

The Guest Is Comparing You to Three Other Hotels at the Same Time

Hotel websites operate under a unique kind of pressure. Most guests aren't deciding between your hotel and "no hotel". They're deciding between you, the place down the road, and an Airbnb. The decision often happens in five minutes, on a phone, with three tabs open. Your photography is what makes that comparison go your way.

Guests Compare You in Real Time

Most guests aren't deciding between your hotel and no hotel. They're deciding between you, the place down the road, and an Airbnb. Your photography is what makes that comparison go your way.

Win Direct Bookings from OTAs

Better imagery on your own website shifts guests away from Booking.com and Expedia, where you're paying 15-20% commission on every booking. Photography pays for itself in saved commission.

Virtual Tours Close the Deal

A 3D walkaround lets couples planning a weekend break, wedding planners sizing up a venue, or corporate event organisers see the whole hotel from anywhere. It closes the gap between website and visit.

UK-Wide Coverage

Based in Somerset but working with hotels, B&Bs, and hospitality venues across the whole of the UK. Travel is included in every quote, no hidden extras.

Every Space, Every Detail

Every room type, bathrooms properly lit, breakfast room dressed and shot at the right time of day, lounges, gardens, terraces, pools, and exterior at golden hour where possible.

Full Commercial Rights

All images are fully licensed for your website, OTA listings (Booking, Expedia, Mr & Mrs Smith), brochures, social media, and PR. No expiry, no annual licensing fees.

Who It's For

Hotels, Venues & Hospitality

Whether you're a single boutique property or a small group, the same principles apply: better imagery means more direct bookings and less commission paid to OTAs.

Boutique Hotels & Small Luxury

Photography is your single biggest weapon, your tour does the closing. Stand out from the chains with imagery that shows your character.

B&Bs & Country Guesthouses

Where the OTAs are taking 15-20% of every booking, better imagery on your own site shifts more guests into direct bookings.

Wedding Venues & Country House Hotels

Tour technology is brilliant here. Couples shortlist 5-10 venues and the ones with proper imagery get visits. A virtual tour earns the viewing.

Small Hotel Groups (2-8 Properties)

Consistent treatment across the portfolio, single point of contact, repeat scheduling, group pricing. Brand consistency without losing individual character.

Pubs with Rooms

The hardest of the lot to shoot well: mixed lighting, evening-vs-day, food and drink alongside bedrooms. I have a process for handling them.

From Matthew

A Note from Matthew

Hospitality interiors are some of my favourite work. Hotels and small group properties tend to have invested heavily in the physical building, designed lighting, considered finishes, real attention to what a guest sees, and most of them are then let down by photography that doesn't do any of that justice.

A photo refresh on a hotel website usually pays for itself within a few months, just on direct bookings shifted away from the OTAs. The 3D tour pays for itself the first time a wedding planner shortlists you over a venue that doesn't have one.

I shoot every property myself, work nationwide, and turn round in 48 hours.

Virtual Tours

Matterport Virtual Tours for Hotels

Let guests, wedding planners, and event organisers explore your hotel from anywhere. A Matterport 3D tour gives potential bookers a genuine feel for your spaces, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Matterport vs Bespoke: Which Is Right for Your Hotel?

I offer two virtual tour options for hotels. For most boutique properties, Matterport is the best choice: it creates a full 3D model with a dollhouse view that guests love. For larger venues, multi-building hotels, or wedding estates, a bespoke 360° tour gives you more flexibility and no ongoing hosting costs.

See a Hotel Matterport Tour in Action

This is a Matterport tour I created for Hurley House Hotel, a luxury boutique hotel in Berkshire. Navigate through the reception, restaurant, bar, and bedrooms to see how a 3D tour lets potential guests explore the entire property before booking.

Navigate the tour by clicking on the floor, or use the dollhouse icon (bottom-left) to see the full 3D model.

Virtual Tours for Every Hospitality Need

Wedding Venue Marketing

Couples shortlist 5-10 venues online. A virtual tour earns the in-person viewing.

Corporate Event Sales

PAs and event managers can "walk" your conference rooms and breakout spaces without visiting.

Travel Writer & PR Access

Give journalists a way to "tour" the hotel without flying out. Saves time and earns coverage.

Staff Recruitment

Prospective staff can see the working environment before applying. Attract better candidates.

Google Business Listing

Embed your tour on Google Maps. Hotels with virtual tours see higher click-through rates.

OTA Differentiation

Stand out on Booking.com and Expedia with a virtual tour link that competitors don't have.
