Technology has forever changed the way that guests want to interact with hotels and major brands. Guests expect a more personalized approach in which they are recognized as individuals. To accommodate these expectations and to drive brand loyalty, hotels must adapt.
Legacy systems (particularly PMS) are all too often unable to keep up with the required changes and remain proprietary/closed systems which are unable to share vital data between systems. Hotels need to demand openness and flexibility,starting with a modern PMS that uses a connectivity layer (APIs) and is capable to share guest data with a CRM so that a guest personalization can be achieved across the entire guest journey. This white paper from HotelAppz and apaleo, explores the evolution of guests' expectations, the drivers behind them, and how hoteliers can turn these demands into an advantage for the hotel. We explain the importance of technology and why it is fundamental to use an open hotel tech stack to personalize communication with guests and to gain their loyalty for life. The whitepaper is free to download here.About Apaleo
