Hotel Oderberger empowers its staff with Mews

OPERATIONS

Nestled in a transformed 1902 bathhouse in Berlin, Hotel Oderberger is redefining boutique hospitality by marrying heritage charm with seamless, modern service, all powered by smart technology

Why it matters: In today’s hospitality world, guest expectations go beyond beautiful spaces; they demand speed, convenience, and sustainability. Legacy systems often bog down staff, hinder guest interactions, and undermine a hotel’s ability to respond swiftly to evolving needs. For Hotel Oderberger, updating their technology was critical not just for efficiency but for preserving what makes them unique: personal service rooted in a storied building, yet fully tuned to modern travelers. Leveraging digital tools lets them spend less time on administrative friction and more time crafting memorable guest moments.

By partnering with Mews, Hotel Oderberger found the balance between tradition and innovation. The platform’s intuitive design and automation capabilities empowered their team to modernize daily operations without sacrificing the personal touches that define their guest experience, proving that even historic hotels can lead the way in digital hospitality.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Hotel Oderberger set out to modernize its outdated property management system, empower guests through digital self-service options, and operate more sustainably by reducing manual work, paper use, and energy costs, all while preserving the hotel’s personal, boutique character.

Modernize property management: Replace the old, homemade PMS with a cloud-based, intuitive system to better handle increasing volumes of data, improve system reliability, and reduce frustration among staff.
Enhance guest self-service: Introduce digital options like online check-in, check-out, and chat tools so guests can take control of parts of their stay, speeding up arrivals and departures and reducing manual touch-points.
Promote sustainability & efficiency: Reduce paper use, streamline manual payment tasks, offer options like skipping room cleaning, integrate energy-saving tools, and partner for environmental initiatives, all while keeping costs under control.
