Gleesons reduce no-shows with automated payments

OPERATIONS

Founded in 1991 as a small coffee shop, Gleesons has evolved into a vibrant 26-room hotel and restaurant in Roscommon, thanks to a husband-and-wife team who left teaching to follow their hospitality passion.

Why it matters: As the business expanded, so did its need for a more advanced, user-friendly hotel management solution. Transitioning from iHotelligence to RoomRaccoon has enhanced their operations, and they haven't looked back since!

Since making the switch, they've saved countless hours through automation and significantly reduced no-shows and walkouts by implementing prepayments with RaccoonPay.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Family-run Gleesons in Roscommon upgraded to RoomRaccoon to streamline their operations and enhance efficiency.

Automated payments: Before RoomRaccoon, Gleesons struggled with manual payment methods, leading to no-shows and walkouts that jeopardized revenue and strained staff. With RaccoonPay, guests now receive secure payment links before arrival, enabling them to pay in full upfront and streamlining the payment process.
Smarter invoicing: Gleesons faced challenges with their point-of-sale system, which lumped items into a single category, causing confusion during invoicing for staff and guests. RoomRaccoon’s integration with Pixelpoint POS addressed this by individually categorizing each item.
Automate tasks: Gleesons Townhouse sought a more efficient way to manage daily operations. RoomRaccoon’s all-in-one Hotel Management System (HMS) transformed their processes, saving valuable time.
