When you overcome hesitation and fears of the risk you Boost Your Hotel’s Revenue and Efficiency
Running a hotel is more complex and competitive than ever. Between operational demands, rising guest expectations, and the pressure to keep costs low, it’s hard to know where to focus. But there’s one area that can make a big difference quickly: technology.
Whilst it can occasionally mean modernising core tech systems, often the biggest impact can be made with modern, easy-to-integrate tech that plugs into your existing PMS. Even small changes, such as introducing a guest experience app, upsell solution, or direct booking engine, can lead to transformative results that are frequently overlooked or deprioritised.
Being Slow to Prioritise and Adopt Tech—and Why That’s a Mistake
Many hoteliers hesitate when it comes to adopting new technology. And it’s understandable—bad past experiences, fears of high costs, and concerns over complex integrations have made tech adoption feel risky. However, the reality is that the technology of today is light years ahead of what you encountered 20 years ago or even 10 years ago.
Modern solutions like Chicostay’s platform are designed with ease of use in mind, allowing for straightforward implementation that doesn't disrupt daily operations. These tools deliver results right away—whether it’s reducing operational complexity, increasing revenue per guest, or saving your staff valuable time.Â
Tech adoption has moved from a burden to a clear opportunity.
The Cost of Falling Behind
‍
What happens if you don’t adopt modern hotel tech? Your competitors will.
Hotels that have embraced these solutions are already seeing the benefits—higher revenue, reduced costs, and more satisfied guests. The longer you delay, the harder it will be to catch up.
There’s an urgent need to act now as competitors that are leaping ahead because of tech are not only more profitable but in turn have more leeway and options on how they want to compete. Thats why Hotels implementing tech like Chicostay’s solutions not only cut costs but also enhance every step of the guest journey. From personalized pre-stay communications to automated upsells and seamless check-in and checkout, tech can transform how you operate—and guests notice.
Quick Tips for Adopting Hotel Tech Without the Hassle:
- Start with Simple Plugins: You don’t need a complete system overhaul. Focus on tech that enhances your PMS with minimal disruption.
- Choose a Partner That Takes on the Work: Look for tech providers who handle setup, integration, and ongoing management so you don’t have to and you get more time.
- Automate Upsells for More Revenue: Automated upsells create additional revenue streams without extra effort. In-person sales to guests can be uncomfortable for both parties—Chicostay’s retailing solution is designed to solve this.
- Reduce Complexity for Staff: Select tools that save your staff administration time, such as automated communication and digital check-in/check-out solutions.
- Choose a Tech Partner, Not Just a Supplier: Ensure you select a tech partner who is invested in your success, not just a vendor.
- Be Wary of the Partner’s Business Model: Look for tech partners whose pricing aligns with your success by not having fixed costs attached to number of rooms but instead correlating to value created; this helps remove risks.
- Invest in the People Behind the Tech: Focus on strategic partners with the right skills and experience to help you succeed beyond just the product itself.
Why It’s Critical to Act Now
Here’s the bottom line: modern technology is no longer a “nice-to-have”—it’s a necessity. Guests expect seamless, tech-enabled experiences. Hotels that don’t keep up with these expectations risk losing out on revenue and guest satisfaction.
‍
More importantly, competitors are already adopting these technologies. Hotels leveraging solutions like Chicostay are experiencing higher revenue per guest, lower operational costs, and smoother day-to-day management. These improvements don’t just help in the short term—they set hotels up for long-term success.
By investing in modern solutions now, you ensure your hotel stays competitive. Chicostay’s platform offers a no-hassle way to implement personalized guest communications, digital check-ins, payments, and upsell opportunities—all in one place. And because it’s web-based, there’s no app to download or complex integration process.
‍
The longer you delay, the more difficult it becomes to compete with hotels that have already adopted these systems. Technology can transform your operations, increase your margins, and improve the guest experience. And the best part? It’s simpler and more cost-effective than ever before.
