Why Hotels Choose Kiotel

Run a more efficient, profitable hotel.

Kiotel helps hotels reduce operating costs, improve guest experiences, and keep front desk operations running around the clock through self-service, live virtual assistance, and standardized workflows.

Labor shortages increase operating costs

Late arrivals and overnight hours should not leave a guest waiting or force a manager to return to the property. Kiotel keeps configured front desk coverage available around the clock.

Routine work limits productivity

Check-ins, payments, room keys, and common guest requests consume valuable staff time. Automating routine work lets employees focus on guests instead of repetitive tasks.

Every guest interaction impacts revenue

Long wait times and inconsistent service affect reviews, repeat bookings, and profitability. Kiotel helps deliver a more consistent guest experience around the clock.

How We Engage

From discovery to live guest support

We configure around how your hotel already runs, rather than asking the hotel to run around the software. Our agents are trained and managed by an ownership group that runs its own hotels across the Midwest, the scripts come from people who have worked these shifts.

01

Understand your property

We review your systems, staffing model, and guest journey to identify where Kiotel creates the most value.

02

Configure your workflow

We tailor self-service, live support, and escalation paths around your property's operating model.

03

Launch with confidence

Your team tests every workflow before going live to ensure a smooth rollout and consistent guest experience.

Testimonials

What our clients says

"Integrating Kiotel's kiosks into both our mid-scale hotels in town has truly revolutionized our operations. At Quality Inn and Super 8, we've eliminated missed reservation calls entirely. Plus, with our front desks now operating on a completely cashless basis, transactions are smoother and more secure than ever. Huge thanks to Kiotel for these amazing enhancements!"

Sanjay P.
Hotel Operator, Illinois

"Implementing Kiotel was a game-changer for our extended stay hotel. We now have 24/7 front desk service, our guests now enjoy unparalleled convenience and support, knowing that assistance is available at any hour. What's remarkable is that this enhancement not only elevated our service standards but also led to a noticeable reduction in overhead costs. It was a strategic move that not only improved our operational efficiency but also elevated the overall guest experience."

Ben S.
Extended-Stay Operator, Indiana

"We use Kiotel across multiple properties, and they have become a true extension of our team. They have helped us create a smoother check-in experience for our guests while reducing the operational burden on our staff behind the scenes. What sets Kiotel apart is the partnership. Their team understands how our properties operate, stays closely connected, and works alongside us to solve problems as they come up."

Frequently asked questions

Have additional questions? Get in touch with our operations team anytime.

What is a hotel guest experience platform?
+

A hotel guest experience platform helps hotels manage guest interactions and front desk operations from one system. Depending on the property, it can support self-service check-in, live guest assistance, operational workflows, and integrations with hotel technology.

What is a virtual front desk?
+

A virtual front desk gives guests access to hotel services without requiring a staff member to be physically present at the desk. Depending on the hotel's operating model, guests can check in, ask questions, request assistance, or connect with a live remote agent.

How does self-service hotel check-in work?
+

Self-service check-in allows guests to complete parts of the arrival process themselves. Depending on the property's technology, this can include reservation lookup, registration, payment, identity verification, and room access. Live assistance can be available if additional help is needed.

Can hotels operate with fewer front desk staff?
+

Many hotels use technology to reduce repetitive front desk work and improve coverage during overnight hours or staffing shortages. Rather than replacing employees entirely, many operators use automation and remote support to help existing teams work more efficiently.

How can hotels reduce front desk labor costs?
+

Hotels often reduce labor costs by automating routine guest interactions, providing self-service options, improving operational workflows, and using remote guest support during lower-demand periods. The right approach depends on the property's staffing model and guest expectations.

What systems should a hotel guest experience platform integrate with?
+

Most hotels look for integrations with their property management system (PMS), payment processor, door-lock system, communication tools, and other operational software. Integration capabilities vary by platform and hotel technology stack.

How do I know if my hotel is a good fit?
+

Hotels experiencing staffing challenges, overnight coverage gaps, increasing labor costs, or inconsistent front desk operations often see the greatest benefit. Compatibility also depends on the property's existing technology and operational goals.

How long does a Kiotel rollout take?
+

Rollout timing depends on integration requirements, hardware, property rules, and staff readiness. Kiotel confirms the plan after reviewing your PMS, payments, locks, guest scenarios, and escalation needs. The launch process includes configuration, end-to-end testing, employee training, guest signage, and a defined path for exceptions.
