The staff shortage in tourism is a major challenge. Many accommodation providers and restaurants in Austria are affected by this - fewer service staff, longer waiting times and often restricted opening hours are the result. The HotelRob initiative offers innovative solutions here: Service robots can take over simple and repetitive tasks to relieve your team and increase the quality of your service at the same time. Depending on requirements and preferences, robotic solutions can be used either in the foreground with direct guest contact or discreetly in the background - always with the aim of relieving staff and optimising service for guests.
How can HotelRob help you?
HotelRob supports your staff with everyday tasks such as serving food and drinks, room service delivery or even operating a robotic bar. Automation increases the effectiveness of processes through the use of digital technologies and service robots. This leaves your team more time to focus on the important things: looking after your guests and creating an unforgettable experience.
Why robotics in the hospitality industry?
While some businesses are already relying on modern solutions, the potential of robotics in Austria's tourism industry is far from exhausted. With the HotelRob initiative, we make the introduction of service robots for your hotel or restaurant simple, efficient and economical. Our solutions are versatile and can be flexibly adapted to your individual needs - whether you are a small family business, a large hotel or a catering establishment.
Advantages at a glance:
- Relief and support for staff: Leave recurring tasks to the robots and create free capacity for your employees.
- Improved service: Your guests benefit from faster and more efficient processes and a modern range of services.
- Attractive USP: Use the robot in your company as a modern eye-catcher and position yourself in the region as an innovative technology company.
- Profitability : Reduce your personnel costs in the long term and optimise your processes. We are also happy to advise and support you in applying for appropriate subsidies.
- Innovation: Focus on the future and make your hotel or restaurant a pioneer in the digitalisation of tourism.
Customised solutions for your business
HotelRob is currently in the application-oriented development phase and offers customised solutions that are specifically tailored to the needs of your business. The options presented are part of an ongoing development and serve to test new approaches in the field of service robotics. Each HotelRob system is customised to the needs of your business. It is therefore not a ready-made standard product, but a customised solution that fits your hotel or restaurant perfectly. Ideas and implementation potential can be analysed and collected as part of low-cost idea workshops and feasibility studies without directly interfering with existing processes. This enables a low-threshold initial introduction to robotics and digitalisation.
If you are interested or would like to find out more, we look forward to receiving your inquiry - together we will find the ideal robot solution for your business!
