Super-efficient check-out process thanks to ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ Kiosk

 

Challenge

During busy times, self-service check-in and check-out are crucial for ensuring a smooth guest experience.

 

Solution

ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ Kiosks are digital touch panels that serve as an alternative to conventional front desk service. The Local House guests appreciate the flexibility and freedom of self-service check-in and check-out. When they type in their name or confirmation number, all the details are automatically updated in their ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ guest profile. They can even scan an identity document if necessary. This super-efficient, user-friendly alternative saves time for guests and staff while eliminating unnecessary printing waste and clutter. Moreover, ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ Kiosk can help boost revenue by personalizing the guest experience. 

 

Result

  • 50% of guests check out onsite with ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ Kiosk

Shifting from reactive to proactive revenue management

Challenge

As a boutique property with a small team, The Local House faced operational difficulties and revenue management challenges. Managing daily rate adjustments manually was inefficient and left little room for strategic revenue planning.

Solution

Recognizing the need for a modern and efficient tech stack, The Local House paired ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ with Atomize to optimize pricing through AI-driven adjustments. Their rates are now updated dynamically based on market demand, competitor pricing and other key factors. This eliminates the need for manual rate setting and improves pricing accuracy. The team now has deeper insights into guest behavior, allowing for more strategic pricing, improved upselling tactics and enhanced guest satisfaction.

Result

  • 36% increase in ADR (from $125 to $170 in just 18 months)
  • Rate adjustments now take just 2 hours every month, down from 8 hours

"With Atomize, we went from manually updating rates once or twice a week to having rates dynamically adjusted throughout the day. It saves us so much time, and we've been able to really push the boundaries of what we thought was possible with our pricing."

Maximizing revenue through direct bookings and upsells

 

Challenge

The Local House wanted to convert people who booked a stay at their place into more engaged, higher-spending guests.

 

Solution

Through ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ Booking Engine, guests can make direct bookings on The Local House's website. A price comparison widget compares prices to leading OTAs, encouraging guests to book directly and lock in the best deal. Online check-in puts guests in control of their arrival while freeing up more of the staff's time for guests who prefer a traditional face-to-face experience. Guests can also immediately upgrade their stay by adding extras, which boosts average spending. One of the most popular upsells is parking – a highly profitable way to diversify revenue.

 

Result

  • $55 average added value through upsells  
  • 19% online check-in rate 
  • 10% online check-out rate 
  • 17% upsell conversion rate
