Entourage sur-le-Lac was looking for something very specific: save time for the team without compromising guest service. As a busy lakeside resort just outside Québec City, guest communication is constant. With its stunning lakeside location and focus on wellbeing, the hotel attracts travellers keen to make the most of their stay.

While this interaction is vital, the sheer volume of repetitive enquiries was becoming a significant operational challenge.

For AX Hotels, keeping up with that demand while giving its front office and reservations teams the space to focus on genuine hospitality was the core challenge. The group needed a way to handle high volumes of routine enquiries quickly and accurately, support guests throughout their entire stay, and turn those interactions into real commercial outcomes, including direct bookings and add-on purchases.
