Although a hotel comprises restaurants, meeting halls, boutiques, spas and gift shops, but accommodation remains the most important factor for the hospitality industry as well as the guest. And for that reason, housekeeping is just as important. The housekeeping department essentially deals with all the cleanliness and related aspects of a hotel, including customization of a room and so on. The only problem arrives when coordinating housekeeping activities, and truly, manual coordination of daily housekeeping activities can be a tedious job and mistakes are bound to occur. But guests are not likely to see shoddy housekeeping as an encouragement to continue coming back to the hotel. More often than not, guests are likely to feel displeased that their preferences were not taken care of or the bed linen is not clean. The use of a hotel housekeeping mobile software is sure to ease these problems for the hotelier. Since standards play an important role in creating and managing the reputation of hotels, the use of this software will surely enhance the reputation of any hotel.

 The perfect tool for managing and following up on the daily maintenance and cleaning activities, a Hotel housekeeping mobile software also helps in increasing staff productivity and guest satisfaction. Hoteliers can use it to free up their manpower, thereby increasing efficiency, since all the operations related to housekeeping will be running like a newly oiled machine. Very smooth! Let us talk about how it works. This software extracts real time information from any existing Property Management System of the hotel and then creates a task sheet. The task sheet comprises different tasks for the attendants and different tasks for the supervisors. As in, the attendant’s task sheet tells them what the task is, which floor the task is on, how long it should take to complete, and all of this is automatic. Think of the convenience!

 Hoteliers can also save money when they eliminate nearly 90% of all room coordination phone calls. For instance, to check if a room has been cleaned, if the bathrooms have been disinfected, if fresh flowers have been put into the vases, a large number of back and forth calls have to be made, stacking up to create quite a bundle. Hoteliers can now save a lot of it, through their usage of hotel housekeeping mobile software. In fact, hotels can also turn around a room faster, so that the waiting time for new guests is considerably reduced, resulting on happier guests. Even mini bars can be kept track of before the guest leaves the premises, so you don’t lose out on your rightful revenue.
