“Conrad Concierge allows for this interaction by putting the control in the hands of our guests. Whether it’s scheduling a wake-up call while you’re at a business dinner or booking a relaxing spa treatment, this new app offering allows for a seamless and intuitive experience," added Vanderslice.
A national survey of US consumers released by Conrad showed that nearly 75% of consumers use a smartphone, tablet or computer when booking elements of their travel.
According to the survey, 77% of travellers value service when selecting a hotel. Moreover, nearly 70% of US travellers prefer hotels that can customise their experience to reflect their personal desires and anticipate their needs.
“When it comes to hotels, younger, more affluent travellers don’t necessarily want to interact with the concierge,” said global travel expert and author Claire Newell.
With a few clicks, users can manage a range of services including room service, transportation, local attractions, spa appointments, housekeeping requests, wake-up calls and more.
The technology is available in 13 languages and is designed for Apple®[1] and AndroidTM[2] operating systems.
