What could a hotelier’s dream look like in 2021?
Hoteliers are passing through troubled times and the travel industry will certainly take some time to recover. Meanwhile, hoteliers’ wishes and dreams are to have lots of travelers booking again, a lively restaurant or breakfast room, a busy full staff… So is this just a pipe dream?
FACT: Several apaleo + HotelAppz clients were able to achieve up to 90% occupation rate during the COVID-19 crisis.
So the picture is not all bleak!
You’d better believe it: there are still strong opportunities that will allow your dream to come true. For example, did you know that clients are much more sensitive to communications from hotels than they have ever been?
They care about personal messages, direct special offers, exclusive loyalty benefits… actions that can stimulate direct bookings by no less than 20 to 40%.
So, perhaps more now than ever, adopting smart solutions can make all the difference in filling your hotel again.
