  • Forgoing daily cleaning
  • With the integration of a motion and temperature camera detector, the central AC system automatically adjusts the hotel’s overall temperature to maintain at a certain level instead of manually setting your AC temperature to a specific degree permanently.
  • Smart energy and water-saving management.
  • Acknowledging your guest in opting out of the daily cleaning properly by rewarding incentive loyalty points or discount vouchers to other hotel facilities would lead to massive cost savings and environmental benefits.
  • Digitize the use of paper
  • Eliminating all menus, reservations, program flyers, and other hotels in-room compendiums and replacing them with a digital guest room tablet or a large touch screen interactive monitor at lobby area would dramatically reduce the number of paper, cardboard, and plastic waste in hotels operations.
  • Effective food waste management
  • The recent technology helps the kitchen come up with an ultimate menu that achieves wasting food supply by tracking records on kitchen waste on a daily basis.
  • Receiving centralized reports to keep you in check for multiple properties in real-time, accessible from anywhere anytime, and trouble-free integration with other hospitality software via Open API are the benefits of a cloud-based hospitality management solution.

  • Digital marketing in tourism has always been an important factor, just like in hospitality, and is positioned in the epicenter of the user’s tourism experience. Both small and large companies in tourist destinations have to be aware of this and take advantage of the new opportunities that arise in the sector. Tourism and technology go hand-in-hand and we can’t understand one without the other.
  • Trends on social media set the path and companies are required to revise their marketing strategies so that they are present on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. The numbers don’t lie; there are 4.2 billion social media users around the world and they don’t use social media for just news, laughing at memes, or following celebrities. They are using social media to share opinions, choose travel destinations, and learn about brands. Social media tourism has an audience.
  • Social media allows us to connect with our audience on a much deeper level. You create not just brand awareness with your audience, but also an awareness and a real empathy between the user and the product: a strong bond that brings us loyal clients and creates new business opportunities thanks to mouth-to-mouth, which adds a great value.

  • At the intersection between social media marketing and tourism, it’s very important to plan. Creating strategies, structuring your actions, and linking each new campaign to a concrete goal is key.
  • Your digital marketing plan for tourism can be the key that opens doors to a multitude of new clients, if you know how to do it:
  • Strategy 
  • Tactics
  • Action 
  • Control 
  • Research and contextualize potential clients, analyze and evaluate the shopping behaviors of your clients and their consumption habits, and create a profile with highlighted data
  • We have to know what is happening on each social network, what content is the most successful, which function is the worst, as well as their reach and the engagement that we have within the community.
  • The plan is equal to Visibility + Proactivity + Reputation (P = V + P + R).
  • How do we obtain visibility?

    This article explains social media in hospitality and tourism. I really loved the explanation of the SOSTAC method which stands for S-Situation analysis/ Who are we? O-Objectives/ Where do you need to go? S-Strategy/ How you'll meet the objectives T-Tactics/ Details of strategy A-Action/Do your thing C-Control/ How did you do. This method was created by PR. Smith in 1990. It was created for digital strategy, and we still use this method nowadays. This technology helps us define our goals and KPI's as well as understand the buying process, what audience we need to cater to to have a successful following and monetary outcome as well as how to keep that momentum.

  • Data privacy matters in the hotel industryDr Michael Toedt Posted on 3 March 2022
  • Data privacy matters – period. As companies (including hotel chains) collect more and more personal data from consumers for marketing and research purposes, consumers are becoming increasingly concerned with data privacy and data protection. They want control over their data and they want to know exactly how it will be used. With legislative changes giving consumers more rights over their personal information, hoteliers need to both know the law and understand why data privacy is so important to hotel guests.
  • Good data privacy builds trust and loyalty
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • “Commitment to data protection” drives brand loyalty for 31% of consumers, a figure that increases to 40% for “Trustworthiness”[1].This backs up the findings from a 2018 survey by Salesforce, which found that consumers are more likely to stay loyal to a company, spend more money and recommend its services if they felt they could trust the organization with their data
  • Data breaches cause serious financial and reputational losses
  • Every type of organization could suffer a data breach if adequate data protection controls and systems aren’t in place.
  • Hotels concerned about their ability to adequately protect guests’ personal data should take immediate steps to address this. A common problem is the existence of multiple guest profiles across different platforms within the hotel tech stack, such as the PMS, CRM, RMS, POS, website, etc. Where these are not fully integrated, data has to be updated manually, which carries significant risks.
  • Key legislation explained
  • There are strict rules around how data can be obtained, stored, managed, and used.
  • Achieving data privacy compliance
  • large amount of valuable data held by hotel groups makes them a prime target for hackers and cyber thieves.
  • From compliance and reputational viewpoint, these functionalities are truly invaluable to hoteliers. However, IT can only do so much. Other key considerations for hoteliers include creating robust data privacy policies, providing clear guest communications, and training staff on data privacy processes. Taking a 360-degree approach is the best way for hotels to protect themselves and their guests from data breaches and the associated risks.

    This article by Michael Toedt on "Data privacy matters in the hotel industry" speaks on the approaches that can be taken to protect guests' data and their privacy since these practices increase guests' trust and loyalty to companies. Accordingly, it is vital for hotels to securely store guests' information. Thankfully, CDM systems make it much simpler for hotel staff to manage data-related requests from clients, such as updating personal details. They also enable one-click deletions, preventing data disputes.

  • Case in point: Hoteza, an interactive, guest-facing platform, is using biometrics to verify photo-based identification for mobile check-in. Over 500 hotels around the globe including Hilton, Radisson, Wyndham, Kempinski, IHG, and Accor look to Hoteza’s cloud-based content management system for online check-in solutions, Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), mobile and in-room tablet apps, digital signage, and high-speed Internet access
  • Biometrics not only helps recognize users when they attempt to log in to the hospitality guest platform, but it also reduces operational costs by enabling self-service capabilities
  • Hotels and resorts each offer a unique personalized experience when greeting customers as they walk in the door, but if there is one common thread in the industry it’s that hospitality professionals constantly go the extra mile to create a superior experience. Biometrics is advancing that by blending familiarity and ease-of-use with modern, secure, and innovative technology

  • If your hotel has a lot of security measures, guests may not like it and they may never come back. If, on the contrary, security measures are weak, this can lead to theft or something else.
  • One of the ways to use biometrics in hotels and other establishments in this domain is to implement registration using fingerprint or face recognition
  • In the same way, hotel staff control guest access to different parts of the hotel, for example by requiring a finger scan to access the pool.Another way to use biometrics in hotels is to avoid key cards that allow guests to enter their rooms. Instead, a person just needs to scan their fingerprint, which greatly simplifies the system.
  • The first is that locals can register by scanning their faces through a mobile app. Another option is for foreigners who can check in by scanning their faces through vending machines located throughout the hotel lobby
  • as the fingerprint will become the only key to all areas of the hotel, which greatly facilitates the work of technical staff and saves the hotel from unnecessary problems with visitors.You can also monitor in real-time the access of staff to restricted areas of the hotel, such as guest rooms, washing rooms, etc. You can track which room a particular hotel employee has entered, thereby roughly understand their location.
  • According to one study, 41% of hotel visitors visited the hotel more often and stayed in only one hotel if an employee could recognize them without giving their name. In another survey, 62% of hotel guests believe that such actions by staff will greatly improve their experience of the hotel.
  • For example, a guest arriving at a hotel scans a fingerprint at the front desk, after which the concierge will immediately receive all of his personal information, room, and service preferences, to make his stay at the hotel as pleasant as possible.

It also discusses the importance of location0based marketing and why we should be using it, citing that "consumers now spend more time daily on mobile devices than watching TV". We learn that there are many types of location-based marketing but the six key types are IP address marketing, GPS marketing, geofencing marketing, proximity marketing, beacon marketing and blueprints location-based marketing. The article also discusses how to use location-based marketing correctly and the benefits and disadvantages.
  • Opt-In Requirements Place-based advertising only works when users use the location technology on their phones AND give verified apps access to that data. However, many people don’t do this because of privacy concerns. Without their participation, there’s no way to use location targeting with this group of users.
