PERSONALIZE THE GUEST EXPERIENCE WITH A SMART HOTEL

Hotel automation is accelerating rapidly and is one of the hot hospitality trends in 2023. There are many reasons for this increasing integration, including enhancing the guest experience, reducing energy costs, and streamlining operations. 

From beach-front luxury accommodations for the most discerning travelers to visitors longing for a low-key stay that extends the aloha spirit, every type of hotel, from boutique to large brands, can benefit from the many options in automation. 

Let’s explore some of the most popular hotel automation solutions and how they’re transforming the guest experience in Honolulu, HI.

CREATING THE PERFECT AMBIANCE 

As those in the industry know, competition in Honolulu is immense. To stand out from the crowd, hotels incorporate state-of-the-art technology that their guests remember long after leaving the Islands.

Team members can create the perfect ambiance with effortless control of lights, climate, motorized window coverings, music, and video. Tap a touchscreen or remote, and the ideal setting is realized with custom scenes for the morning, evening, and special events. This same system also creates the perfect environment for onsite restaurants and bars and prepares conference room meeting spaces. 

THE ULTIMATE GUEST EXPERIENCE 

In-room smart technology can control everything, from the temperature to lighting, draperies, music, and TV, all from a keypad, touchscreen, smartphone app, or even voice control. Your guests experience the ultimate relaxation and enjoyment with complete and customizable control.

This 5-star stay includes a ‘Welcome’ scene that impresses guests as they walk into the room. When they enter for the first time, the drapes open, the music turns on, certain lights illuminate, and the TV displays a greeting just for them. Personalized ‘Wake-Up’ scenes trigger their favorite music or TV channel, adjust the thermostat, and open the window coverings. 

A ‘Good Night’ scene turns off the lights and AV equipment, closes the shades, and prepares your guests for a good night’s sleep. This special attention contributes to the ‘Wow’ factor that results in an increase in return guests and enhanced reviews. 

SUSTAINABILITY 

A hotel’s sustainability efforts also benefit from smart technology. In common areas, motorized shades open in the morning, bringing in the beauty of the Hawaiian sun. In response, the electric lights dim, maintaining the perfect lighting. As a space heats, the shades lower, reducing solar heat gain and energy usage.

A guest checking in triggers their room’s air conditioner to turn on. When a balcony door slides open, it pauses. Sensors determine when a room is unoccupied, turning off the lights and setting the thermostats.

These systems also integrate with many of the third-party products you already use to provide your guests with superb service. Compatible systems may include door locks, management applications, room service, and even mini-bars.
