The Guesty Booking Engine includes several smart localization features that work behind the scenes to optimize the booking experience for your guests.
Calendar regional preferences
The booking calendar automatically adjusts its first day based on your selected language:
- Sunday start: US English and other markets where Sunday begins the week

Currency formatting
Currency displays match regional conventions, ensuring prices look familiar to your international guests, for example:
The system also handles currencies without decimal places (like Japanese Yen) by applying appropriate rounding rules.
Date formats adapt to language settings
Check-in and check-out dates, cancellation policies, and other date information automatically displays according to regional formats. This includes proper 12-hour vs. 24-hour clock formatting and date ordering that matches local expectations.
