Digital check-in and virtual concierge platform Virdee now integrates with the Cloudbeds operations platform in a bid to let hoteliers and hosts develop contactless guest experiences. Virdee will be available as a new partner in Cloudbeds’ marketplace.
The Virdee virtual reception lets guests check in either via mobile device or kiosk, receive a digital or physical key and head straight to their room. These contactless features complement Cloudbeds’ suite of tools, which include property management, channel management, booking engine and payment solutions.
“The integration and partnership with Cloudbeds means Virdee is now available to a much wider number of lodging providers, from independent hotels to bed and breakfasts of all sizes,” Virdee co-founder Nadav Cornberg said in a statement. “In turn, more travelers can expect better experiences along their guest journey, including personalized offers, an improved welcome experience and digital room access.”
User-friendly mobile applications from both Cloudbeds and Virdee automate tasks and free up staff to focus on providing more value to the guest throughout their stay.
“Today’s travelers are looking for seamless, digital experiences, and both Cloudbeds and Virdee are dedicated to improving the entire end-to-end interaction between guests and their hosts,” said Sébastien Leitner, VP partnerships at Cloudbeds. “This integration will allow us to continue creating more meaningful travel experiences for thousands of Cloudbeds customers throughout the globe, helping them grow revenue, streamline operations and enable memorable guest experiences.”
