Oram Hotels put SuitePad in all 258 rooms of The Guild and Granger in San Diego at the end of March 2026. In five months, guests skipped 3,158 cleanings, saving about $63,000, bought $7,440 in late check-out, and asked the in-room AI 2,832 questions.
Why it matters: Two very different hotels on the same platform each found their own return. Owners can see which profile matches their hotel and where their first result will come from.
  • SuitePad replaces the room phone with an in-room device and AI assistant. At The Guild and Granger, guests use it to skip housekeeping with one tap, book late check-out, browse dining and the neighbourhood, and get answers to everyday questions at any hour.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Oram Hotels brought SuitePad in for the guest experience, and wanted it to pay for itself through lower housekeeping costs and new in-room sales.
  • Better In-Room Guest Experience: Give guests in two historic, non-chain-style hotels one place to find dining, the city and hotel information, in their own words and at any hour.

  • Plan Housekeeping Ahead Of: Replace the Do Not Disturb sign, which housekeeping only discovers at the door, with an opt-out the team sees in advance.

  • Sell Late Check-Out Directly: Let guests book and pay for late check-out from the room, without a call to the front desk.
