Jakarta, Indonesia —  It is no longer unknown that technology plays a major role in the world of modern living. It’s a vital resource that streamlines everything from our simplest morning routines to huge-scale business operations. The hospitality industry is one that has benefited immensely from advancements in technology. Here are a handful of the most fascinating technological advances in the hotel industry.

Contactless payments

Contactless payment allows a quick and efficient transaction between guests and hotels. The addition of this payment method is especially convenient for guests when they have no access to cash, credit nor a debit card. It only takes one scan to complete a purchase. A shift in traveller behavior during and after the COVID-19 epidemic contributed to the increased popularity of this payment option, as people tried to avoid spreading the virus by physical touch. Aside from payment, the usage of QR Codes are also commonly used to display useful information to the guests such as operational hours and restaurant menus.

Virtual Reality

Virtual reality (VR) allows visitors to experience far-off destinations without leaving the comfort of their own homes. This can be the deciding factor in whether they make a reservation. Many hotels, restaurants, and other hospitality establishments take use of this technology by creating virtual reality tours, allowing clients to explore and interact with a destination from the comfort of their own home or on the go.

Guests can reserve their own rooms and make their own payments via a website, making this method convenient for use at any time.
