Case study header image
The 5-star luxury resort provides guests with a branded app to help transform their guest stay and drive incremental revenue
Why it matters: The app enables the hotel to digitally connect and interact with guests. It provides a seamless level of convenience where guests can order online and comfortably dine in their own suites and easily access information on the hotel and local area.
  • The IRIS hotel app empowers hoteliers to reach guests in a way that suits them. Guests simply need a smart device and their browser to access all of the great features that include F&B ordering & payments, digital guest directory and instant service requests online.

Top 3 Core Objectives: The luxury, family resort wanted to enrich their guest's stay by providing them with a seamless, digital ordering & guest directory app.
  • Boost their F&B revenue: The hotel wanted to increase their F&B revenue by providing guests with an easy and attractive means of ordering food and drink online to be enjoyed in their rooms.

  • Enhance guest communication: The resort wanted to improve the way they communicated with guests and fulfil their service requests.

  • Provide hotel information: They wanted to give guests a comprehensive overview of their hotel facilities and the local area via a digital directory.

"The app gives our guests a seamless means of communicating with us and a digital platform on which they can order their favourite food and drink items direct to their room. Additionally, the guest directory provides a sustainable, cost-effective way for guests to find information about the hotel, our facilities and the local area, at a click of a button. It has helped us boost our F&B ancillary income and drive guest spend from our gastronomic outlets and by providing our guests with this facility, it ultimately contributes to them re-booking with us again."
