4 stages of hotel digitalization. From wooden ships to intergalactic experiences

LONDON, LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, January 11, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — In the vast ocean of the hospitality industry, digitalization can be likened to the evolution of ships through ages. Each type of ship represents a distinct level of digital maturity in hotels, mirroring their journey through the tumultuous waters of today’s market challenges.

Level 1 – The Wooden Ship of Conquests A hotel resembles a sturdy wooden ship, navigating through traditional methods. Rely on conventional advertising, with limited online presence. Guest interactions are mostly manual, and data is either underutilized or not used at all.

Imagine a reception area with basic PMS for booking and marketing strategies.

Level 2 – The Steamship Era A hotel has now evolved into a steamship. Started using digital tools, but they are basic like spreadsheets for tracking anything. A website, but it’s more informational than interactive. Ventured into social media, but it’s not strategically used for engagement or data collection.

Increasing in online bookings, but they’re mostly through OTAs, which cut into profits.

Level 3 – The Luxury Cruise Liner The Hotel is now using advanced digital tools and strategies. Interactive website, a strong presence on various digital platforms, and starting to use data to enhance guest experiences.

Marketing is more targeted, based on guest data. Improvements in guest satisfaction and repeat visits, but sense there’s potential for even more personalization and real-time engagement.

Level 4 – The Intergalactic Luxury Ship A hotel has transcended to an intergalactic luxury ship level. It’s not just about using technology; it’s about pioneering it. AI and machine learning for predictive personalization, and anticipate market trends.

Guests receive personalized recommendations even before they ask. Operations are streamlined with AI, allowing staff to focus on creating unique experiences.

Navigating the 2024 Hospitality Challenges

Navigate through the evolving hospitality landscape of 2024, hotels are encountering a myriad of challenges that are shaping their operations and strategies.

1. OTA Dominance and Direct Booking Strategies: Developing a strong digital presence and direct booking capabilities is key to reducing reliance on OTAs. This includes optimizing the hotel’s website, improving SEO, and utilizing digital marketing to drive direct bookings. Employing AI and data-analytics to understand guest preferences and tailor marketing efforts can make a hotel stand out in a crowded marketplace.

2. Contactless Smart Technology Integration: Utilizing digital platforms for contactless services, such as mobile check-ins and touchless payment options, is essential. Integrating these technologies into a hotel’s digital ecosystem enhances guest experience and operational efficiency.

3. Storytelling through Digital Marketing: Digital platforms offer an opportunity to engage guests with compelling brand stories. By powering social media, blogs, and email marketing with AI and data, hotels can effectively share their stories and connect with guests on a deeper level.
