How SABA Hospitality’s Digital Compendium & Mobile Ordering Solution Reduced ‘Royal on the Park Hotel & Suites’ Expenses by Over 90%.

Hotel Requirements

  • Replace Labour-Intensive Tablet Solution:
    The hotel had an in-room tablet solution for seven years, which was labour-intensive and expensive to maintain.
  • Cost-Effective Digital Solution:
    The tablet product, costing a significant amount annually, was replaced due to a change in vendor and a deteriorating business relationship.
  • BYOD Solution:
    The hotel required a QR code-based Digital Compendium and ordering solution that guests could use on their own phones, eliminating the need for hardware.

 

Solutions Installed

SABA Mobile Ordering
The SABA Mobile Ordering module revolutionizes the way guests place orders, offering a seamless and convenient experience. Guests can easily browse menus, customize their orders, and make payments directly from their own mobile devices. The system streamlines operations and reduces costs, making it an essential tool for hotels and resorts. By automating guest ordering and enhancing revenue opportunities, the SABA Mobile Ordering module provides a comprehensive solution that enhances guest satisfaction and boosts operational efficiency.

 SABA Digital Compendium
The SABA Digital Compendium Module digitizes traditional paper-based compendiums, providing a dynamic and engaging guest experience. With features such as PDF and link uploads, guests can easily access menus, price lists, and activity & class schedules on any device. The integration of iFrames allows for seamless inclusion of videos, maps, webpages, and more. This comprehensive digital platform not only promotes contactless interactions but also streamlines operations and enhances revenue opportunities for properties in the hospitality industry.
