WP Event Manager + Hotel Maps Pro
Hotel Maps Pro for WP Event Manager.
WP Event Manager lists your events. Hotel Maps Pro shows attendees where to stay: a map of hotels and rentals around each event’s location, with live prices for its dates.
Free. Works with the free version of WP Event Manager. Needs Hotel Maps Pro 2.1 or later and WordPress 6.8 or later.
What WP Event Manager Does
Event listings made simple.
WP Event Manager helps you create event listings and manage them from your WordPress site, for in-person, virtual and hybrid events, without any coding.
- As many events as you likeCreate and manage all your event listings in one place.
- Box and list viewsShow listings in the layout that suits your site.
- Search and filtersVisitors find the right event quickly with several filters.
- Front-end submissionOrganisers can post events through a form on your site.
- Types and categoriesGroup events so they’re easy to browse.
- Works with page buildersCompatible with the block editor, Elementor and other page builders.
WP Event Manager’s premium add-ons add a calendar, registrations, ticket sales through WooCommerce, recurring events and more.
The Missing Piece
Listed. Now, where to stay?
Your listing tells people what’s on, where and when. For anyone travelling, the next job is finding a bed nearby, and that usually means leaving your site to search somewhere else.
- Organisers keep lists of hotel links up to date by hand
- Attendees search for the wrong dates or the wrong part of town
- Rooms near the venue go first

Built for WP Event Manager
It reads your events, so you don’t have to.
Hotel Maps Pro uses what you’ve already saved in WP Event Manager: the event’s address and its dates.
Automatic on Every Event Page
Install and activate Hotel Maps Pro, and each upcoming in-person event shows a map. No maps to create, no shortcodes to paste.
Uses Your Address and Dates
The map is built from the event’s address, town, postcode and country, and opens on the event’s dates.
Sensible Stays
One-day events check out the next day. Choose Arrive the Day Before if most people travel the night before.
Skips What Doesn’t Need It
Events marked as online, events without an address and events that have finished never show a map.
Control for Each Event
A Hotel Maps Pro box in the event editor: always show the map, hide it, or set different check-in and check-out dates.
Your Colours and Logo
Maps take your brand colours, logo and venue pin, set once in Hotel Maps Pro’s settings.

Questions about WP Event Manager.
Something else? Contact us or ask for support.
Does it work with the free version of WP Event Manager?
Yes. Hotel Maps Pro reads the address and dates that the free plugin saves, so you don’t need any of its add-ons.
Do events submitted through the front-end form get a map?
Yes. Once a submitted event is published, it gets a map like any other event.
Can I choose where the map appears?
By default it sits below the event overview, under a Where to Stay heading you can change. If you’d rather place it yourself, choose Only Where I Add the Shortcode and add this shortcode where you want it: [hotel_maps_pro event="current"]
What about online events?
Events marked as online don’t show a map, and nor do events that have finished.
Can I turn it off for one event?
Yes. Open the event and choose Hide in the Hotel Maps Pro box. You can also switch off maps for all events in Hotel Maps Pro > Settings > Event Plugins.
Is it really free?
Yes. There are no paid plans. We earn a commission from the booking site when an attendee books, and attendees pay the booking site’s usual price.
