Overview

Meridian runs a handful of much-loved venues on a booking flow guests quietly hated. We rebuilt it into something as considered as the rooms.

02

The challenge

Availability across venues is genuinely complex; the interface had to hide that complexity while never lying about it.

  • Real-time availability across venues
  • A flow that never dead-ends
  • Clear pricing with zero surprises
  • An admin the front desk enjoys
03

Our approach

We modelled the messy availability rules first, then wrapped them in a flow that only ever asks the next necessary question.

  • A booking core that respects real rules
  • Progressive disclosure, one decision at a time
  • An honest, itemised price at every step
  • A calm admin for the people who live in it
04

The outcome

Meridian cut booking abandonment sharply and gave the front desk hours back each week. Guests finish in two taps; staff stop firefighting the old tool.
