According to Hospitality Technology’s 2018 Customer Engagement Technology Study, hotels are slow to adopt the mobile functionality guests want. Over 40% of those surveyed want to do one or more of the following: use their smartphones and tablets to manage reservations, control the guest room environment, check in/out, request services, order room service, unlock their rooms, and more. However, fewer than half of all hotels currently offer a majority of these mobile features. According to the study, of the 24 mobile features guests want, only 3 are widely available (room reservations, loyalty program management and on-property events).
