Smart Hotel
Convenience and a better hotel experience for guests is the first thing that comes to mind. Guests like to
have more personalization options; they feel more at home if they can get precisely what they desire.
Adjusting room temperature and lighting with a tablet or any other smart device makes guests feel in charge
and comfortable. Also, finding all of the right buttons and switches in a new space can get a little hard
for guests, so a single touch point that requires a few simple swipes to control everything in the room is
very helpful.
Energy efficiency is another factor. With smart technology, devices are used only if needed. For instance,
using smart solutions with a built-in thermostat helps with adjusting the room temperature automatically
based on the outdoor weather, and it turns off if the room is unoccupied. Moreover, sensors detect when
guests leave their rooms and communicate this information to light switches so that lights are automatically
turned off. Thus, less energy is wasted, and the hotel business becomes more eco-friendly.
Additionally, a smart room can assist with other aspects; in hotels with traditional room management, one
has to go to the reception desk or use the phone to ask for information or service, but having an
intelligent panel helps to facilitate the request/answer process considerably. With only one touch, a
guest’s request for laundry service is delivered to the management desk and answered immediately.
In a smart hotel, every room can be equipped with voice recognition devices. Voice control is a significant
service delivered by smart technology. Guests will be more satisfied when a virtual voice service assists
them with TV, lights, and AC control.
Also, rather than contacting the busy receptionist when they want to know about the nearest places to shop
or eat, the guests can simply use the virtual voice assistant to find that information in the blink of an
eye, as it has access to thousands of relevant websites.
