Accessible travel begins with verified data


European Accessibility Act
Our program helps ensure compliance with the European Accessibility Act, including clear communication of your accessibility features.

The Certification Process
1. Consultation & Proposal
An online meeting with your dedicated sales contact to understand your needs, followed by a quotation.
2. Contract & Planning
After agreement, an Accesible® auditor schedules the audit with your on-site contact person.
3. Accessibility Audit
A 2–4 hour on-site assessment of all public and customer areas (external and internal), including measurements, pictures, video and technical documentation.
4. Evaluation & Certification Level
The collected data is analysed against the requirements of the different user groups. Based on inclusion level, the location receives a rating.
5. Reporting, Communication & Validation
You receive the full audit report with improvement recommendations, certification, a dedicated accessibility profile on our interactive maps and visibility on our booking platform. The Certification remains valid for 2 years with annual renewal and invoicing.
6. What it means
This project creates a digital ecosystem for accessible tourism, combining an interactive map with a booking platform for certified hotels. It enables people with disabilities to plan and book their travels with confidence and peace of mind by removing uncertainty around accessibility.

Certification
An accessibility certificate increases trust by providing verified, reliable information for guests and partners. It enhances the hotel’s market positioning and compliance with regulations. It also helps attract a wider audience, including seniors and guests with disabilities, who actively look for certified locations.
Communication
Through our booking platform and interactive maps, your certification becomes a practical sales and visibility tool, not just a label. Travelers can search, filter, compare and book certified hotels based on their specific accessibility needs, turning reliable information into direct reservations. This targeted visibility connects your property with high-intent guests who actively search for accessible and verified accommodations.
