The guest-facing tech solutions facilitate efficient operations by taking over mundane tasks and if deployed correctly help achieve greater guest satisfaction. Most of these tech solutions pre-date the pandemic. However, the adoption of guest-facing tech gained momentum during this period due to its contactless capabilities.
In our new report, Hotel Tech Benchmark: Guest-Facing Tech 2022, we provide an overview of the market penetration of guest-facing tech in hospitality, estimating the total market size and revenue potential of the space across categories such as guest apps and in-room tech, virtual concierge, guest messaging tools and chatbots, digital check-in, and keyless entry. We also offer a list of top vendors for each of these categories.
Skift Research analysis shows that guest-facing tech in the hospitality industry has the potential to become a $6 billion tech category.
Guest apps is the most popular category with the highest market penetration. Messaging tools, chatbots, and in-room tablets too are categories that are at the top of the list of tech investment in hotels. Guest-facing tech, while popular, is still a major growth area in the hospitality sector.
