Frequently asked questions

What can a WhatsApp chatbot do for hotels?
An AI assistant on the WhatsApp Business Platform that handles inbound messages, sends approved notifications and keeps the conversation in the app customers already use. For hotels, common starting points are answering reservation, rate and amenity questions to drive direct bookings; handling in-stay requests such as towels, late checkout or recommendations; pre-arrival messages, upsells and post-stay feedback requests.
Does it work with the tools hotels already use?
Yes — the goal is to fit around property management systems (PMS), booking engines and guest messaging platforms, not replace them. Conversations sync to your CRM or help desk, and the bot can look up bookings, orders or account details through your existing systems.
How long does rollout take?
WhatsApp requires a verified Business account and pre-approved message templates, so rollout includes registering the number and getting templates approved before going live.
How is direct bookings handled?
Answering questions instantly on your own site and channels gives guests a reason to book direct rather than through an online travel agency.
