Hospitality Mobile Apps

Provide your customers with tailored support throughout their stay via your branded mobile app. The ability to easily offer information in multiple languages, serve targeted content about the hotel’s facilities and services along with digital concierge and event advertisement are just part of what you can offer.

The data collected helps our hotel customers tailor their services by understanding customers preferences. Digital check in / checkout and services upselling will help to save your staff time and increase revenues. Your guests can also view nearby points of interest on interactive Google maps, enhancing the experience of their stay.

How we can help

A mobile app provides hotel owners with valuable data and insights. We can help you source valuable insights into how often customers visit, how much they spend, how they interact with the hotel services, and so on. 

These allow hoteliers to enhance guest experiences and adjust their strategy for better performance. The app may also facilitate customer feedback, in-app surveys, and reviews on TripAdvisor or other review sites. In the event of a bad review, it alerts the business so as to solve the problem quickly and protect its online reputation.

Expand your hotel’s bar and restaurant facilities to facilitate delivering, table booking or pre-ordering their meal.

The hotel benefits from showing what it has to offer, advertising certain events, products, places and informing guests about the facilities.
