Effortless Front Desk Automation Tailored for Hotel Groups' Unique Needs

Hotelinking’s Front Desk Automation System is designed to meet the unique challenges faced by hotel groups. Unlike other solutions, which often lack flexibility, our system is fully adaptable to the specific processes of each hotel, allowing seamless integration of local policies, check-ins, check-outs, payments, and document signing.

Hotel groups with operations across various regions often encounter different legal requirements. For instance, Spain and many European countries require daily submission of guest ID and booking data to local authorities, while other regions like the UK have fewer regulatory demands.

Hotelinking ensures compliance with all relevant regulations.

Our solution automatically scans and digitizes IDs and passports, accommodating diverse nationalities and document types without manual intervention. This speeds up the check-in process and reduces errors.

Moreover, Hotelinking easily integrates with multiple PMS systems, or custom hubs, making it ideal for hotel groups using varied platforms across properties. Adaptable and flexible, our tool is built to simplify the complex operational needs of hotel groups.

What level of customization is possible for our hotel group’s unique needs?

Hotelinking’s solution is designed with flexibility in mind. We customize workflows to reflect your hotel group’s operational structure, regional compliance requirements, and branding guidelines. For instance, you can define fields for collecting additional guest data like phone numbers, emails, or addresses, based on your internal policies.

Branding options include customizing the check-in interface with your logo, colors, and visual identity, ensuring consistency with your brand. Note that font types are standardized to maintain uniformity and optimize readability across devices. For groups operating in multiple regions, we incorporate unique requirements such as ID regulations or document formats. Each tool is tailored to your operational realities.
