No one questions the value of providing superior guest experiences. Technology solutions that enable GEM – or Guest Experience Management – are becoming the focal point of practically every customer-facing business. This unwavering focus on guests is especially powerful in the world of hospitality, where the ‘experience’ means more than just offering better guest rooms, well-equipped amenities and stand out service.
Beyond keeping pace with the latest value-add services and modern amenities, hoteliers have long appreciated the importance of interacting with guests in ways that personalize the experience. Hoteliers that exceed guest expectations have done so by becoming increasingly guest-centric. This means placing the wants and needs of guests at the heart of every business decision.
