Hotel booking AI that opens your booking engine in the chat
A visitor with a question is close to booking. The AI answers on your website from your own information, and when dates come up it shows a date picker: the guest chooses dates and guests, and your booking engine opens with the search filled in.
It is one part of chatlyn’s hotel AI, the same AI that answers on WhatsApp. On your website it lives in the hotel live chat widget, available in 18 languages.
The AI answers the question before an OTA can
Guests compare hotels in several tabs, often late in the evening. An enquiry that waits for the morning shift is often booked elsewhere by then. The AI answers on WhatsApp and your website in about 3 seconds, and on WhatsApp it asks for dates and sends a link to your booking engine with the search filled in, where your engine supports it.
The AI behind it is the hotel chatbot: it answers only from your knowledge, in the guest’s language, and hands over to your team when a person is needed. More ways to increase direct bookings build on the same speed.
Group and bespoke hotel requests go to your team, with context
A wedding party, a week for twelve or a honeymoon villa deserves a personal quote from your reservations team. The AI collects the details and passes the conversation to your reservations team, with the guest’s earlier stays and messages beside it.
Every channel arrives in one guest messaging inbox, so the quote is written without searching three systems. Soneva Fushi’s reservations team cut the time per bespoke quote from 35 minutes to under 5.
Bring past guests back to book with you directly
Guests who stayed with you are in chatlyn with their stays and conversations. Send a WhatsApp offer to those who opted in, for example everyone who stayed in the past year, and when they reply, the AI asks for dates and sends the link to your booking engine.
Every enquiry, booked or not, stays on the guest’s profile, so the conversation is there the next time they write. WhatsApp for hotels covers the templates, opt-ins and sending.
From your booking link to answers that end in a booking
Our customer success team seeds the AI with your information and tests the links into your booking engine with you before anything goes live.
