How to restrict access to certain pages in Webflow

Manage permissions and secure your hotel website

Key points:

  • Webflow allows you to restrict access to certain pages through "Memberships" options or third-party integration.
  • You can define who sees what: clients, partners, or internal employees.
  • Access is managed according to roles, member areas, or site editing rules.

Restricting access to certain pages on Webflow is an ideal solution for protecting restricted content, whether it's a customer area, a hotel intranet, or a marketing staff-only zone. This feature allows you to control who can view, edit, or publish specific content based on the roles defined in Webflow.

Restrict access to published pages

In Webflow, you can limit the visibility of a page via the Memberships settings (available on CMS or Business plans).

  1. Go to the Memberships tab of your Webflow project.
  2. Create user groups (e.g., “Loyal Customers”, “Hotel Staff”).
  3. Within each group, configure access rights: visible pages, hidden pages, and allowed actions.
  4. Open the settings for each page you want to restrict.
  5. Activate the “Access Control” option and then choose the group authorized to access it.

💡 Tip: For hotels, you can create a space reserved for customers who have booked a stay (with access code or user account) in order to share exclusive offers or personalized services.

Manage collaborator access in Webflow Editor

If your goal is to restrict access to certain pages for members of your team, this can be managed from the editing settings:

  • The Editor role only grants access to the content of published pages, without modifying the site's structure.
  • The Designer role grants access to the entire project, including CMS collections and the overall structure. For a hotel marketing team, it is recommended to assign only the Editor role, which ensures site security while allowing for updates to visible content.

Use external integrations

If you want to go further, you can use tools like Memberstack, Outseta, or Firebase Auth to manage secure zones with user login. These solutions allow you to create:

  • private member areas (VIP clients, B2B partners)
  • conditional access pages (e.g., professional pricing or loyalty programs)
  • personalized experiences based on the user's profile

💡 Technical tip: Combine Webflow Memberships and a CRM integration to automatically synchronize customer or member accounts according to their booking status.

Best practices for the hotel industry

  • Identify sensitive pages (pricing, partner offers, internal documents).
  • Use clear but non-public URLs (no links in the main navigation).
  • Enable HTTPS and check your indexing settings to prevent a private page from being indexed.
  • Regularly test access in incognito mode to verify security.

Conclusion

Restricting access to certain pages on Webflow allows you to better control the distribution of your content and offer a personalized experience based on user profiles. It's an elegant solution for protecting your hotel's sensitive information while improving internal management.
