I'd suggest php if you are using apache and mysql, they are a good fit and php is relatively easy to learn to code in.

If you are creating a hotel booking system I suggest you search on this forum or others as they have been asked and answered a number of times.

If you have Perl experience, by all means use Perl (with the excellent CGI.pm and DBI.pm modules)

HTML, CSS and Javascript.
