Report Suggests that Mobile Technology Will Be the Future of Hospitality

There’s little question that mobile technology – in particular the rise of apps and smartphones – has shaken up the modern economy in dramatic ways. The hospitality industry is certainly no exception, especially as its fortunes are heavily dependent on keeping up with social trends. With new media being the biggest craze among travelers and diners, hospitality venues can’t afford to lag behind on utilizing this technology in creative ways to suit their clients.

For example, MobileMarketingWatch.com reported on an interesting new trend that hotel owners in particular might consider:

If you own a smartphone, the next time you travel you may not need a key for your hotel room. In fact, you may be able to bypass the registration desk altogether. This, we’re told, is what the future holds for the hospitality industry. As a result, the industry’s biggest players are speeding ample sums of money to ensure that the full potential of mobile can be leveraged to make their respective properties as cutting-edge and convenient for travelers as technology presently allows. Starwood Hotels & Resorts, which owns more than 1,150 hotels in nearly 100 countries, tells CNN that it will debut smartphone-based hotel keys within the next three months at two of its Aloft hotels, in the Harlem neighborhood of New York City and Cupertino, California where Apple is based. If all goes well, the company says it could have the feature in all of its hotels by next year. A spokeswoman said the app will initially be compatible with recent iPhone models (4S and newer) and newer Android phones. The app will use Bluetooth technology to unlock the room with a tap. “We believe this will become the new standard for how people will want to enter a hotel,” Frits van Paasschen, Starwood’s CEO, tells The Wall Street Journal. “It may be a novelty at first, but we think it will become table stakes for managing a hotel.”

Similarly, mobile apps have played a large role in helping clients select their hotel, restaurant, or other hospitality establishment of choice. It’s becoming increasingly difficult for any enterprising hospitality business to avoid getting with these trends.

But no matter what changes lay ahead, one thing will remain true through it all: the importance of keeping your establishment as attractive, functional, and modern as possible. That’s where our top-notch Hospitality Renovations come in. JaguarHospitality is the most trusted source for helping hotels, restaurants, medical centers, and others improve their businesses like never before.

We’ll work with you to ensure that your vision is made a reality, and that your venue is as attractive and up-to-date for these fast-changing times as possible. To learn more, call 214-295-3574.

Hospitality Businesses, Take Note – Here Are the Top 10 Meeting Trends in 2014

In today’s fast-paced business world, major changes are regularly occurring across nearly all major industries. No where is this more true than in the hospitality industry, which is increasingly being shaken up by the growth in technology, travel, and social media.

As one of the nation’s leading Hospitality Renovations Company, Jaguar Hospitality keeps up to speed with all the developments that concern our clients. That’s why we’re happy to share the latest findings by Benchmark Hospitality International – a Houston-based operator of 40 hotels, resorts, and conference centers nationwide – which has reported the top 10 meeting trends based on its widespread properties. Take note of this excerpt from Chorn.com:

  1. Lightning Speed!  Free, fast, and it better be reliable — highly effective WiFi is the #1 issue for planning professionals and conferees in the meetings business today.  Conferees often come with up to three wireless devices per attendee so greater bandwidth is a necessity to drive multiple devices.  Planners are expecting adequate bandwidth to keep meeting guests not only connected and engaged, but happy as well.

  1. Content Leads to Discovery. How do planners and conferees discover and learn about properties in 2014? Primarily through good old fashioned Google searches. Targeted exposure on the Internet has never been more important, or more utilized by planners.  What drives this? Meaningful web content. Be visible and connected, but never forget that well executed, timely, and informative website content is king when trying to communicate a message, delineate one’s brand and engage meeting professionals.

  1. Demand Trends UP!  Meeting demand and booking pace is consistently on the upswing.  As the economy picks up momentum, so goes meeting demand. Short-term bookings are still prevalent, but the booking demand window is increasingly stretching into 2015, 2016 and beyond. Not quite the good old days…but getting closer! 

  1. Creating The Experience. Just as with consumer travel today, the demand for out-of-the-ordinary unique experiences is increasingly factoring into meeting destination decisions. Those properties partnering with local assets, such as wineries, historic and natural wonders, intriguing adventure resources, and unique off-site reception and dinner venues have a strategic advantage in the pursuit and the capturing of meeting demand.
  1. Green is Good, But …  Though it sounds enticing, and feels like the right thing, being green is not seen by most planning professionals today as a critical factor in property selection, and no one is losing business because of the lack of it.  This isn’t to say properties aren’t doing their utmost to be good green citizens; it’s just that other issues are often paramount to the success of a meeting.

  1. Select Social Media has a place in Meetings. Social Media has minimal impact on securing corporate meetings business, with the possible exception of LinkedIn. During meetings, however, planners and conferees use Twitter and LinkedIn for communicating with each other, and also with moderators. On the horizon; the rise of meeting-specific property apps tailored to optimize communication during the planning and implementation phases — and these may soon supersede the role of social media.  Facebook is rarely utilized to bring in meetings business or communicate during a conference, as it’s seen to be a personal communications tool for staying in touch with friends and family.

  1. Meeting ROI (Return on Income). Meetings and budgets are finally increasing following over six years of recession. This is especially true in the Association market, with larger meetings growing in attendance. As corporate purse strings slowly loosen, meeting professionals are increasingly becoming more firm with demands of flexibility, including the negotiation of attrition clauses. The demand for value in their investment has never been higher. It all ties back to more accountability for meeting ROI.

  1. Health Conscious!  Food & beverage in 2014 is all about health & variety — for refreshment breaks and meal menus.  Planners and conferees want healthy choices verses pre-ordained menu options, and they want value.  Creative spa breaks may substitute for refreshment breaks at those properties that offer this service. A 10-minute ‘lift your spirits’ yoga session can be an energizer as well.  Planners and attendees want breaks that perk them up; not the opposite.

  1. Teambuilding Climbs Back. Groups that have the budget are looking for unique ways to motivate, inspire, and build camaraderie as the business environment continues to improve. Socially conscious groups or those with a more streamlined budget tend to look for other camaraderie-building opportunities, such as developing fellowship through teambuilding volunteerism initiatives, like building bikes for kids in the local community.

  1. Who’s Meeting in 2014? Across the country, the traditional industry segments are once again delivering business to meeting properties, including the Financial, Pharmaceutical, Insurance, Association, and increasingly Healthcare industries.  Silicon Valley and the High Tech Northwestern U.S. are on the rebound too, significantly benefiting properties in this market.

We hope these tips can serve you were in whatever your hospitality venture is. If you want to spruce up your establishment to better facilitate these developments, we’ve got you covered. Our Hospitality Renovations are comprehensive, cost-effective, and personalized to suit your needs and budget. You can always view our project profile to learn more, or call (214) 295-3574 for details.
