European Hosting for Hospitality & Food: the sector and its challenges.

Your restaurant, hotel, or café is an experience. Your website should be too. We create digital experiences for hospitality businesses that are beautiful, fast, and functional.

Hospitality is one of the most competitive sectors in the Netherlands. a strong online presence is no longer optional. Google is the new front door.

The digital bottlenecks in the Hospitality & Food sector

  • Website that is slow, ugly, or barely functional on mobile
  • No online reservation or ordering system — or an awkward one no one uses
  • Completely dependent on Thuisbezorgd or Booking.com for visibility and revenue
  • Menu changes that require calling the web developer
  • Google Business Profile that doesn’t match what you actually offer
What the Hospitality & Food sector demands from a digital partner

Hospitality businesses are all about atmosphere and service — a template website kills that. Your restaurant is not generic. Neither is your website. Custom means your personality shines through.

Hosting in Europe — by the team that built your site

Most hosting providers don’t know what runs on their servers. We do — because we built it. Every project we deliver runs on our own Hetzner Cloud infrastructure in Europe. Self-hosted, fully managed, with no black boxes.

That means: no dependence on American platforms. No GDPR risks with data outside Europe. No price hikes from a hosting provider you don’t even know. And no support tickets ending up with someone other than the people who know your site.

What’s included

Hetzner Cloud servers in Germany or Finland. Docker containerization per project — fully isolated. Cloudflare CDN & DDoS protection always active. SSL certificates managed and automatically renewed. Daily automated off-site backups. Performance monitoring with immediate alerts on issues. Media optimization via our own image pipeline.

All included with every project we build. No extra hosting contract, no external party, no handoff.

Who is this for?

For companies that understand hosting is more than just a server. That take GDPR seriously and want to keep data in Europe. That prefer to call the team who knows their product rather than submit a ticket to an anonymous helpdesk.

Waar staan mijn data en servers?
Wij draaien op Hetzner Cloud-servers in Duitsland en Finland. Jouw data verlaat de EU niet en voldoet aan de AVG en GDPR.
Waarom niet AWS of Vercel?
AWS-rekeningen zijn onvoorspelbaar en Vercel kan morgen de prijzen verhogen. Wij beheren onze eigen servers — vaste kosten, volledige controle, geen afhankelijkheid van derden.
Kan ik ook alleen hosting afnemen?
Hosting is inbegrepen bij elk project dat wij bouwen. We hosten geen externe sites — omdat we alleen kunnen garanderen wat we zelf kennen.
Wat zit er standaard inbegrepen?
Dagelijkse backups, Cloudflare CDN, SSL, uptime monitoring en Docker-containerisatie zitten standaard inbegrepen.
