About Charlostin – Hotel & Resort Booking WordPress
Charlostin is a hotel and resort booking product for WordPress, originally sold on ThemeForest. The file on record dates from December 2019. The store labels it a plugin, but its categories read Premium Theme, Builder, Booking, Hostels and Food Restaurants, so it is most likely a theme with booking features.
The listing says nothing more about rooms, availability calendars, payments or demos. Open the package and check whether it contains a style.css file, which means a theme to upload under Appearance, or a plugin file, which goes under Plugins. Then read its documentation, and test on a staging site because the code is from 2019.
Key features
- Hotel and resort focus
- The name and categories point to hotels, hostels and resorts.
- Booking category
- Filed under Booking and book; the listing does not detail the booking flow.
- Builder and multi-purpose tags
- Also tagged Builder and Multi-Purpose, which suggests flexible page layouts.
- Restaurant and blog tags
- Food Restaurants and Blog categories hint at dining and news pages.
Is it right for you?
A good fit for
- Small hotels, hostels and resorts that want a ready-made WordPress site
- Developers who will confirm the booking features in the documentation first
Look elsewhere if
- Buyers who need confirmed payment gateways or channel manager sync, which the listing does not state
- Sites that need current WordPress and PHP without testing
How to install Charlostin – Hotel & Resort Booking WordPress
- 1
Download the file
Open My Account → Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.
- 2
Find the installable theme zip

- 3

Most premium themes show a notice listing their required plugins. Install those before importing any demo content.
Notes for this product
- Check whether the zip is a theme or a plugin before uploading. If it is a theme, the standard theme upload steps apply, not the plugin ones.
Getting started: using Charlostin – Hotel & Resort Booking WordPress
- Identify the package type. Unzip it and look for style.css (theme) or a plugin header file (plugin).
- Install on a staging site. Upload and activate it there first, because the file dates from 2019.
- Read the documentation. Find out how rooms, availability and booking requests are set up.
- Add rooms and test a booking. Create your room types, then place a test booking and check the confirmation email.
Common problems and fixes
Booking confirmation emails do not arrive
- Why it happens
- WordPress sends mail through the host's basic mail function, which many mail providers reject or filter.
- How to fix it
- Install an SMTP plugin and send through a real mailbox, then repeat the test booking.
“The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”
- Why it happens
- The full download package was uploaded instead of the theme zip inside it.
- How to fix it
- Unzip the package and upload the zip that contains style.css at its top level.
“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading
- Why it happens
- The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
- How to fix it
- Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/themes with your host's file manager or SFTP.
Demo import stops part-way or times out
- Why it happens
- The server hits its execution-time or memory limit during the import.
- How to fix it
- Raise max_execution_time and memory_limit with your host, then re-run the importer; importing content, widgets and settings separately also helps.
Pages look broken right after activating
- Why it happens
- The theme's required plugins (page builder, theme core plugin) aren't installed yet.
- How to fix it
- Install and activate everything in the theme's required-plugins notice, then reload.
