What Makes Our Guest Portal Different

Complete Journey Coverage

Every touchpoint matters

Unlike solutions that focus on just pre-stay or on-property experiences, GuestSmart's Guest Portal manages the entire guest journey—from initial website visit through booking, pre-arrival, on-property, and post-stay engagement.

Two-Way Preference Management

A collaborative approach

Our portal not only delivers personalized content but also enables guests to explicitly share and manage their preferences, creating a collaborative relationship that grows more valuable over time.

Seamless Multi-Channel Experience

Meet guests where they are

Deliver consistent, personalized experiences across all channels—website, email, mobile app, on-property interactions, and more—creating a cohesive journey regardless of how guests choose to engage.

Preference-Driven Personalization

Beyond basic recognition

Move past simple name recognition to true personalization based on detailed guest preferences, behaviors, and history, creating genuinely relevant experiences at every touchpoint.

Automated Journey Orchestration

Effortless personalization at scale

Automatically deliver the right content and offers at each journey stage based on guest preferences and behaviors, enabling sophisticated personalization without overwhelming your team.

Real-world scenarios that demonstrate how the Guest Portal transforms guest experiences

The First-Time Visitor

Before GuestSmart

A potential guest visiting your website sees generic content that doesn't speak to their specific interests or needs. Their subsequent booking process and pre-arrival communications are equally generic, missing opportunities to build excitement and collect preferences.

With GuestSmart

The Guest Portal analyzes website behavior to identify the visitor's interest in spa services and local culinary experiences. This information personalizes their website experience, informs their booking path, and shapes pre-arrival communications that highlight relevant offerings and collect additional preferences.

The Returning Guest

Before GuestSmart

A guest returning for their second stay receives the same generic pre-arrival and on-property experience as first-time visitors, with no recognition of their previous preferences or experiences.

With GuestSmart

The Guest Portal recognizes the returning guest, references their previous stay preferences (high floor, extra pillows, late checkout), and automatically incorporates these into their current reservation. Pre-arrival communications acknowledge their return and highlight new offerings matching their established interests.

The Special Occasion

Before GuestSmart

A guest mentions in their reservation notes that they're celebrating an anniversary, but this information remains buried in the reservation system, often overlooked by busy staff.

With GuestSmart

The Guest Portal automatically identifies the special occasion and orchestrates a series of personalized touchpoints—from pre-arrival congratulations to staff alerts, room preparation instructions, and special offers for celebration packages that match the couple's preferences.

The Frequent Business Traveler

Before GuestSmart

A frequent business traveler receives the same lengthy check-in process and standard room assignment each time, despite having clear preferences and a consistent travel pattern.

With GuestSmart

The Guest Portal recognizes the frequent traveler, enabling expedited check-in, consistent room preferences (quiet room, workspace, early check-in when available), and personalized communications focused on efficiency and productivity rather than leisure activities.
