Their kiosks, however, have an option to use facial recognition, which aids in recognizing regulars and is able to suggest add-on items. Responding to the often repeated claim that kiosks will cost jobs, they argue that there is always a demand for the guest-facing experience, and that kiosks could contribute to greater demand for BOH staff.

It also protects owners from the damages and costs that may arise from criminal activity such as theft.
  • Security officers patrolling the hotel’s grounds can look out for suspicious activity. Hotels should have security officers regularly patrol the hallways, stairwells, lobbies, parking lots, restaurants and bars.
  • Security officers can handle unruly guests or visitors and prevent negative situations from spiraling out of control. Officers can also provide additional protection to VIP or controversial guests of the hotel that might attract public attention or protests.
