Digitalisation is transforming the hospitality industry.

The challenge for hotels is to constantly become smarter on a technological and digital level.

The use of digital tools is increasing, both from the perspective of service users as well as of the establishments themselves.

The digitalisation of hotel management procedures enables simplified processes that lead to savings in time and money – not only for managers, but also for guests.

The fundamental step in this direction is the adoption of a management software capable of centralising and optimising all front-office activities.

In fact, a complete programme of this type allows to greatly facilitate and optimise the coordination of all daily hotel management activities.

11- Investments that the guests appreciate

La signora Jones è sdraiata a letto, profondamente rilassata e con gli occhi chiusi, e parla entusiasta dell’oasi di benessere rinnovata al suo partner: “I colori sono meravigliosamente caldi e quando tocchi qualcosa, puoi davvero sentire la qualità del materiale. Anche l’illuminazione è armoniosa. Penso che ci abbiano investito un bel po’ di soldi”.

Dato che lui non reagisce, aggiunge: “Anche il massaggiatore è piuttosto affascinante”.

“Che cosa? Massaggiatore?”

Adesso ha la sua attenzione. “Mi hai almeno ascoltato?” chiede con tono accusatorio.

“Sì, l’oasi del benessere è nuova. Ma sai cosa è ancora più interessante? Il direttore me l’ha già detto…”

 

Ama il suo partner, davvero. Ma a volte, desidera che lui sia un po’ più interessato a lei. Mentre lui inizia a parlarle dei costi bassi, lei si addormenta serena. Per questo non viene a sapere che l’albergatore ha affittato il suo nuovo software gestionale alberghiero invece di acquistarlo, permettendogli di evitare di calcolare i costi di acquisizione. Non lo sente nemmeno delirare sulla struttura modulare del software che consente a ogni albergatore di scegliere solo le parti di cui ha veramente bisogno…

 

Gli albergatori che temono costi di acquisto elevati e non vogliono pagare per pacchetti software giganteschi dovrebbero dare un’occhiata ai software di gestione alberghiera modulari, come ad esempio CASY (casy.ch), che non vengono acquistati, ma noleggiati.

10- The old computers are still fine

“You probably had to invest a lot of money in new computers if you’ve purchased a powerful hotel management software” Mr Smith speculates as they’re having a chat with the hotelier after dinner.

Being a computer scientist, he’s always interested in the hardware and software that is used in the different industries.

“You won’t believe it,” the hotelier counters “but that’s not the case. My five-year-old computers are still fine and keep working smoothly. I didn’t have to invest any money in hardware because the new software is completely based in the cloud.”

Mrs Jones says goodbye. She’s booked a massage online in the hotel at last minute and can’t wait to be pampered. “That’s a very smart solution” Mr Smith approves by nodding.

Then, he adds: “That would mean that you can access to your hotel from everywhere in the world, right?”

“Exactly” the hotelier confirms. “Once it’s quieter in the hotel, I’ll be able to take a day off and manage everything from remote. I would never want to go back to pencils, paper and Excel lists.”

 

There’s modern hotel management software that are completely based in the cloud and hardly need the available hardware (computer).

CASY (casy.ch) is an example of it–and it works both on Windows as well as on Apple.

9- A chat with the guests

For almost ten years, towards the end of autumn, Mr Smith and Mrs Jones have treated themselves to a wellness stay in this beautiful hotel between the mountains of Valais. They’re now sitting on the terrace, the sun’s shining, and the hotelier has joined them to have a chat.

Surprised, Mr Smith comments: “Well, that’s new! Since when do you have time to sit with the guests and even look relaxed? Don’t get me wrong, you’ve always been very nice, but we could always feel that you didn’t have much time”.

 

“That’s right” the hotelier confirms. He explains: “Since last spring, a lot has changed indeed as after long evaluations, we’ve chosen a modern hotel management software. Since then, many work processes have become much faster. The software’s relieved me a great deal, and I enjoy spending more time with my guests. At the end of the day, they’re the reason why I’ve become a hotelier – not the administrative work.”

 

A modern hotel management software like CASY (casy.ch) allows the managers to spend more time with their guests and to take care of the relationship with them instead of sitting in an office.

In the next chapter, Mr Smith will be talking with the hotelier about outdated computers and remote access.

8- So cheap!

Mrs Jones is in a good mood. They’ve been spending their holidays in southern, Italian-speaking Switzerland for three days now, the sun is shining and she’s just ordered the fifth glass of Prosecco. During the dinner in a cozy restaurant at the lake promenade, they’ve started to chat with a couple sitted at the table next to them.

 

“Our holidays have never been so cheap. So, we’ve got more money for prosecco!” she tells giggling. The alcohol is showing its influence. “Yes” her partner confirms, “we’ve booked very short-term, and our offer has costed 30% less than two months earlier. These days, some hotels use the same method as airlines:they have dynamic prices based on the offer, the demand and the time to increase their occupancy rate.”

 

“That’s interesting” their neighbour comments. “And this really works?”

“I guess so, or there wouldn’t be more and more hotels doing that” Mr Smith answers. He tries to impress him by showing off his technical vocabulary: “Professionals call this Fielding.”

“No, darling, it’s called Yielding” Mrs Jones corrects him with a smile.Yielding indeed uses dynamic prices and increases perceivably the occupancy rate as well as the earnings.

Their cups are still half full when the receptionist approaches them: “Your room’s readynow”.Mr Smith is astonished: “Excuse me, but how do you know that? You haven’t answered any phone call andnobody’s come by to inform you”.

As the last hotel was overbooked, another accommodation in the neighbouring village has been found forMr Smith and Mrs Jones. Now, they’re approaching a reception for the second time within just one hour.‘Oh no’ says Mrs Jones. ‘So many people. It’ll take forever.’ Her happy holiday-mood is tried a lot today.Interestingly, although a dozen people are gathered in front of the reception, one of the two receptionists is actually free.

 

Therefore, Mr Smith wriggles through the crowd to get to her.He’s astonished to see that she hands him a tablet after welcoming him. ‘Mr Smith, you can do the check inby yourself on this tablet. You just have to fill in the required fields and once you’ve finished, please bring it back to my colleague or to me.’Less than five minutes later, the lift brings them up to the fifth floor, where a “bedroom with a panoramic view” awaits them.

 

Now, the holidays can start for real.A modern hotel management software like CASY (casy.ch) gives you the opportunity to offer a self-check-into your guests, by using tablets at your hotel or even by doing it online.

This way, queues at the reception belong to the past, and the data is transferred automatically to the system.

5- So sorry, we’re overbooked

It’s summer in the Bernese Oberland.

Mr Smith and Mrs Jones are looking forward to a week of wellness and trekking around the famous mountains Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. ‘The offer is so great, and I’m so happy that you’ve booked in advance’ she repeats again and again. She really can’t wait for this holiday to start.

They arrive at around four o’clock in the afternoon. They glance through the glass door towards the reception. ‘We’re so lucky, there’s nobody waiting!’ Mrs Jones notices happily.‘Hello, my name’s Smith, I’ve booked the special wellness and trekking offer’ says Mr Smith, while handing over the booking confirmation. The two young men, wearing elegant sports jackets, exchange awkward looks.

‘Welcome, Mr Smith. We’re so sorry, but there’s a problem. We’re completely full.’‘But I have a valid booking confirmation’ Mr Smith protests indignantly.‘Yes, that’s true, and we’re extremely sorry for that, but we had published the offer on different booking platforms and there must’ve been a problem. You’re already the second client today that we couldn’t accommodate.’

With a modern hotel management software like CASY (casy.ch), you can save a lot of hassle. From the software, you can manage all online booking platforms and keep an eye on them in real time. In the next chapter, a hotel proves to be keeping up with the times.

4- Stressed hoteliers

After a nightcap at the bar, Mr Smith and Mrs Jones want to go to the reception to make a remark about the disappointing surprise menu. ‘I think they owe me something’ says Mrs Jones to her partner, ‘what they served me was miserable’.

There is no one at the reception. Therefore, Mrs Jones rings the golden bell. Three minutes go by, but nobody arrives. The second time, she hits the bell harder, but without success. ‘They call it a 24-hours-reception on their website. I think they’re just referring to the furniture’ she comments dryly, as after further minutes anybody hasn’t arrived yet. Right in this moment, a door behind the reception opens, and a woman with greyish hair arrives. ‘Oh, have you been waiting for long?’

‘A bit, yeah’ Mrs Jones expression is not a good sign.

‘I’m so sorry.’ The hotelier tries to calm her. ‘I was so concentrated on paperwork that I didn’t hear you a tall. We’ve had a lot of arrivals today, and I had to fill in all notification forms for the police.’

With a modern hotel management software like CASY (casy.ch), notification forms can be generated within the system in just a few seconds.

In the next chapter, Mr Smith and Mrs Jones will experience the worst-case scenario for hotel guest.

3- I’m vegan!

Only once they’ve arrived in the rustic-style restaurant, the tension between Mr Smith and Mrs Jones eases. They’re looking forward to their four-course surprise meal. The waitress brings the starter to thetable with an elegant gesture and says: ‘A graved salmon mousse…’

 

‘I’m sorry’ Mrs Jones interrupts her ‘but I’m vegan. I communicated that when we booked the hotel. Have you not been informed?’ The waitress apologises profusely and brings MrsJones’ plate back to the kitchen.Mrs Jones’ surprise meal reveals itself to be a vegetable soup, a small mixed salad and a vegetable plate asa main course. ‘It looks to me as if the kitchen team wasn’t prepared to cook me a decent vegan meal’ she comments to her partner.

 

Mrs Jones is going to complain about it to the hotel management, and she’s right to do so. But things could’ve gone different: with a modern hotel software such as CASY (casy.ch), you can print daily updated lists with information for the kitchen, the housekeeping and much more.

In the next chapter, the patience of our guests is going to be tried a lot.
