Après Inn: How Two First-Time Hoteliers Built a Modern Ski-Town Motel That Runs Itself
Verified case study
Hotel Tech Report has reached out to hoteliers at Aprés Inn to verify this case study.
Après Inn is a fully renovated, design-forward ski-town motel in Killington, Vermont—launched by two first-time hoteliers who turned a rundown roadside property into a self-running, tech-powered guest favorite.
Why it matters:
Cloudbeds enabled Brett and Casey to automate late-night arrivals, centralize communications, and operate their 20-room property without a front desk—giving them back their time while elevating the guest experience.
-
By combining Cloudbeds’ automated workflows, digital access tools, unified messaging, and dynamic pricing integrations, Après Inn runs smoothly even when the owners are off-property or asleep.
Top 3 Core Objectives:
Après Inn needed technology that could support a lean team, eliminate manual late-night work, and create a seamless guest journey that matched their modern, adventure-focused brand.
-
Automate check-ins: Guests typically arrived after long drives and late ski days, often well past 10 PM. Brett and Casey needed a way to automate access and instructions so they didn’t have to stay awake handing out keys.
-
Centralize communication: Managing messages across Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, and email quickly became overwhelming. They needed a single place to track and respond to all guest inquiries.
-
Automate revenue management: As first-time hoteliers, they didn’t have time to manually update nightly rates. They needed smart, automated pricing that adjusted with demand and pushed updates everywhere.
