GUEST EXPERIENCE

GHT Hotels uses HiJiffy’s AI Booking Assistant to automatically answer guest questions and help travellers book rooms directly on their website, day and night. Since launching the tool, they now automate 89% of enquiries and have generated €733,000 in direct revenue through the chatbot alone.

Why it matters: This case study shows how GHT Hotels solved slow response times and limited support hours by adding an AI chatbot that works around the clock. Automating routine questions has freed up their team, improved guest satisfaction, and increased direct bookings — proving that practical AI can deliver measurable results for hotels.

HiJiffy’s AI Booking Assistant is an automated chat tool that answers guests’ most common questions about rooms, prices, and hotel services at any time. It guides travellers through the booking process directly in the chat and passes complex requests to staff when needed. GHT Hotels uses it to handle thousands of enquiries quickly, cut wait times, and convert more visitors into confirmed direct bookings — giving their team more time to focus on guests who need personal help.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Automate guest enquiries, improve response times, and boost direct bookings by integrating an AI-powered solution into daily hotel operations.

Automate Customer Service: GHT Hotels wanted to handle common guest questions automatically to reduce wait times, manage more conversations at once, and provide answers outside working hours.
Increase Direct Bookings: They aimed to make it easier for guests to book directly through the hotel’s website by guiding travellers through the reservation process within the chat.
Collect Actionable Data: The hotel group needed detailed metrics on guest interactions and team performance to identify recurring questions, measure satisfaction, and keep improving service quality.

"Since we started working with HiJiffy, the progress in our customer service has been consistent and remarkable. The platform has evolved with new features that have optimised our daily operations, allowing us to automate responses and centralise queries from different channels. This has saved us time and enabled us to focus on more personalised service, while the progressive learning of the chatbot has made conversations increasingly seamless, improving the user experience and reducing booking losses. Furthermore, the ability to launch promotional campaigns through the system has enriched our communication strategy. Another highlight has been the support from the HiJiffy team, who, from the initial integration, have shown a strong commitment to our needs, offering tailored solutions and ongoing assistance. We haven’t felt like just another ticket number but rather part of a continuous improvement process with tangible results, backed by detailed data that has allowed us to analyse performance and identify growth opportunities.
