In a time where every missed call is a missed opportunity, hoteliers are increasingly seeking intelligent solutions that boost efficiency and capture revenue without forcing an overhaul of existing systems. With Seekda Stay, our AI voice assistant purpose-built for hotels, we’ve unlocked a new frontier: seamless stand-alone deployment, regardless of your current PMS, IBE, or channel manager.
The New Standard in Guest Communication
Today’s travelers expect real-time responses – 24/7. However, hotels are struggling with reduced front desk staff, seasonal fluctuation, and growing guest expectations. Seekda Stay transforms guest interaction by answering calls automatically, converting them into qualified leads and confirmed bookings – even when your front desk is overwhelmed or unavailable.
Why “Ecosystem-Agnostic” Matters
Unlike other AI assistants, Seekda Stay doesn’t require full migration to Seekda’s PMS or IBE. It works independently of your existing tech stack. This means you can integrate the assistant with your current systems, regardless of vendor, and still:
- Handle guest inquiries and bookings 24/7
- Free up staff for high-touch, on-site service
- Reduce the number of unanswered calls – one of the biggest hidden drains on your revenue
Real ROI: A Use Case Based on Real Data
Let’s look at the numbers.
- Based on Seekda reservation data and industry benchmarks, around 20%-25% of incoming calls go unanswered daily.
- With an average booking value of €1,450, that equates to €104,400 in lost revenue per year per hotel.
- This figure excludes additional services or upsell potential, making the actual revenue loss potentially even higher.
By implementing Seekda Stay, hoteliers can recover this revenue stream effortlessly, all while maintaining their existing booking environment.
“When we first started using Seekda Stay powered by Sadie, we were a bit unsure whether guests would still choose to book over the phone. But since we brought it in, we’ve seen a clear increase in direct bookings – and our guests love it.
We regularly get compliments about ‘the lovely lady’ who took their reservation. She’s always helpful, and seamlessly transfers calls to our front desk when needed. It’s reassuring to know that no calls are going unanswered anymore – Seekda Stay has it covered.
For us, it’s been a complete game changer. Whether our guests are calling or standing at the desk, the experience is now smoother, more personal, and more efficient than ever.” ~ Flamingo Hotel, Ocean City, USA
Efficiency Without Overhauling Your Stack
Incorporating Seekda Stay requires no disruption to your current tech operations. It can be installed and running within a matter of days, bringing immediate improvements to your guest experience and bottom line.
Who Is It For?
- Hotels operating with a non-Seekda IBE or PMS
- Properties receiving high volumes of phone inquiries
- Boutique hotels or chains looking to modernize without vendor lock-in
Unlocking Barrier-Free Access to Your Hotel
In addition to recovering missed revenue, Seekda Stay enables barrier-free, voice-based access to your property’s inventory, allowing you to serve a valuable and often underserved guest segment.
- Voice search is rising – especially among older guests and those with visual impairments.
- Seekda Stay lets anyone book a stay simply by calling, asking questions, and getting clear responses.
- You offer a fully accessible direct booking channel that doesn’t rely on navigating a website or mobile app.
Why this matters:
Hotels often struggle to reach demographics who aren’t comfortable with digital interfaces. With Seekda Stay, you’re not only recovering lost revenue – you’re unlocking new revenue by being more inclusive.
Looking Ahead
AI in hospitality isn’t a trend – it’s a turning point. As guest behaviors shift and operational challenges mount, the need for flexible, intelligent, and autonomous communication solutions will only increase. Seekda Stay isn’t just an AI assistant; it’s a strategic revenue capture tool for the modern hotelier.
