How conversational AI makes for a better guest journey 

Research

Make holiday research as fun as the trip itself!

  • Let AI help people find the perfect apartment from thousands of listings, or that hidden gem that isn’t yet in the brochure.
  • Provide an immersive booking experience with 360-degree virtual property tours.
  • Provide AI-generated summaries of guest reviews to help people narrow down their holiday search.
Booking

Provide a seamless booking experience

  • Guests can research, book, and even pay for a holiday or business trip with the help of AI on their favorite chat app.
  • Provide answers to the specific questions that are important to each guest – from childcare services to local restaurant recommendations.
  • Send automated availability alerts when new dates are released, or last-minute cancellations mean there is a bargain to be had.
Check-in and in-stay

All the excitement of travel with less admin and hassle

  • Always satisfy guest preferences without them having to ask – from room types to dietary requirements, AI never forgets the important details.
  • Deploy a 24/7 virtual concierge that can order room service, book a taxi, or say what time the spa opens.
  • Assist guests with online check-in, providing digital room keys, and automate the check-out process.

Challenges for conversational AI in hospitality  

While conversational AI is a fantastic tool for hospitality businesses, some may have concerns preventing them from investing in the technology on a meaningful scale. These include worries about privacy and security, and the possibility that guests seeking a personalized experience may be put off by the use of AI. However, these fears are largely unfounded as you will see.

Challenge: Data privacy

Guests trust hotels and hospitality businesses with both their personal data and payment details. By incorporating conversational AI, some establishments may be worried that this data becomes more exposed to fraud and data leaks.

Solution: Secure communication

Infobip conversational AI solutions prioritize data security and privacy. With robust encryption and secure data handling, hospitality businesses can be confident that all customer communication and personal data remains secure all at all stages of their journey.
