OPERATIONS

mk | hotels cuts 50% of guest calls by connecting Plainview AI with Apaleo, freeing up staff time and speeding up services. Within the first month, they saw fewer routine inquiries and improved staff efficiency.

Why it matters: mk | hotels automated routine guest calls using Plainview AI, integrated with Apaleo. Within just two months, this saved the team over 70 staff hours — time they could now spend on delivering more personalised service where it really matters.

Plainview AI handles frequent guest inquiries, like check-in times or breakfast hours, directly over the phone, without requiring staff involvement. By connecting it to Apaleo, mk | hotels ensures the AI has real-time access to reservation and property data.

Top 3 Core Objectives: mk | hotels wanted to reduce the volume of repetitive guest calls to the front desk, improve response times for common inquiries, and free up their team to focus on more complex guest needs. They also aimed to implement a solution that could scale easily across multiple properties with minimal setup.

Reduce repetitive calls: The front desk staff was often interrupted by routine inquiries, including questions about check-in times, parking, and Wi-Fi. The goal was to reduce these disruptions, allowing the team to focus on more valuable interactions.
Improve response speed: Guests sometimes had to wait on hold or visit reception in person. mk | hotels wanted to deliver instant answers and enhance the guest experience.
Enable easy multi-property deployment: With 13 hotels, the team needed a scalable solution requiring minimal setup and maintenance. It also had to integrate smoothly with their existing tech stack.
