Rev is still a viable CMS and easy to edit. Chocolatey, brain & cosmic are the other options, I would not recommend Phoenix emulator as it’s just old and you’d have to find the swf pack that will work for it, use Arcturus Morningstar as the EMU and for the swf pack download this

You’ll need to browser that still supports flash if you’re going to be using .swf files so download MX5 or even use the nitro client but if you’re struggling on setting up a hotel using swf then I wouldn’t recommend you try nitro.
Also the white screen error is due to your .htaccess file.

Agree with this totally, do please refrain from using anything "Phoenix" whether it be the EMU or the PhoenixPHP 2.0 CMS.
The reason being, both are very outdated and haven't been progressed any further in a long time so while there may be still someone out there that would like to help you use these resources there's really no point, you'd also be posing huge security issues by choosing to use this CMS.
The most basic retro setup nowadays consist of the Arcturus emulator and Cosmic CMS which I would recommend you do as well, there is a "Krews" discord with sub-channels within that contain fixes, answers and support to anything related to both cosmic or Arcturus & someone will always reply to any queries that you have.
(I am not degrading Arcturus nor Cosmic when I say "basic setup" I'm just saying this option at the moment seems to be the "go-to".)

I wouldn't touch RevCMS as its pretty outdated now. A generic setup would be Cosmic and Arcturus, which is great for a starter. Easy to set up with little to no experience needed.
Someone a bit more capable would probably be best off with Comet Emulator though its more stable and reliable for a bigger hotel base.
I would also favour IIS over XAMPP too, there are plenty of working tutorials (both text and video) available to you if you require more assistance.
Utilise the search function on Devbest to find all the answers to your needs.

It may be outdated but it’s still an option you can use & is just as secure as the CMS’s mentioned.

If it is a port error, from the top of my head my first guess would be an application that you have open on your computer is already using the port that XAMPP uses.
From what I remember, it was Skype and Teamviewer that conflicted these ports, if you're not using either of these open task manager, find which application is using the port needed and close it, then try to run XAMPP again.
It is also of course possible to use IIS on your own computer without a VPS but to make the hotel publicly available you will need to port forward which is more hassle than it's worth considering there are plenty of uncostly VPS companies out there nowadays.
However, if using IIS on your own PC is something you feel you might want to do use the link below for a step by step guide on how to turn it on.

As for RevCMS, yes it's old but the core is still absolutely usable and it's EXTREMELY easy to use and navigate around.
Don't like the RevCMS theme? change it in the skins folder, just make sure to change it in your config.php.
