Accessibility

Last updated 12 November 2026

We want everyone to be able to use this website, including people who use a screen reader, a keyboard, zoom or voice control. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA.

What you can do on this site

• Use it with a keyboard. A "Skip to content" link appears at the top when you press Tab.
• Zoom to 400% and read everything without scrolling sideways.
• Turn the movement down. If your device is set to reduce motion, the scrolling effects are switched off and the page reads as a simple list. The moving screens at the top can also be paused with the "Pause background" button.
• Read it in your own colours. Text and buttons meet the AA contrast ratios in every colour section.

How we tested it

On 12 November 2026 we checked every page with the axe accessibility checker against WCAG 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 level A and AA, at phone, tablet and desktop sizes, and found no failures. We also checked tap target sizes, heading order and contrast by hand.

What we know isn't right yet

• We haven't yet tested the site from start to finish with a screen reader. That's next.
• The screenshots of the demo hotel site are pictures of a website. Their main content is described in the text next to them, but not every word in them.
