This page can be used to activate the Google Translate API, which is used for translating hotel descriptions.

In order to work with the Google Translate API, you will need to open an account with Google.

Google will bill you on this account each time a user clicks this button - even if the original description and translation are in the same language.

After translation is enabled, a Translate button appears in the Reservations System, in the Hotel Details page. When a user clicks this button the hotel description is replaced with the translated text.

The translation is not a replacement for the original text. There may be errors in Google's translation, and the user will be bound by the original text.

A disclaimer to this effect is displayed below the translation.

To activate the Google Translate API

  1. Select Use Google Translate API.

  2. In the API Key field, enter the API key you received from Google.
