Share This

There are few places that the customer experience (the guest experience) is more important than hotels and hospitality businesses. Whilst all members of staff may be required to show that they have a certificate in hospitality, this inevitably means that they have all of the knowledge and skills needed to perform to the highest standard, regardless of their position. Guests at your hotel or restaurant are at the forefront of your operations. Keep them happy and they are more likely to share a good review about your hotel, guaranteeing your success in the long run. Those places that have incorporated hotel cmms to help them keep on top of broken systems and maintenance projects could score higher, especially if they prevent a problem before it has a chance to affect your stay.

The demands of the golf club on the Chateau’s communications system had grown considerably in recent years.
