Hospitality communications require speed and certainty

Hotels have bounced back — and some forecasts expect the industry to grow by more than $1 billion by 2027. As customers quickly rekindle their love of travel, once stymied by restrictions and cancellations, the teams that serve them will need to be more prepared and connected than ever. 

The problem: Too many hotels and restaurants are understaffed, wrestling with a need to grow quickly, smoothly onboard new folks, keep them engaged an informed, and deliver best-in-class service without a blip.

Hospitality communication FAQs

What is hospitality communication?

Communication in the hotel business has two avenues. One is done between colleagues to share knowledge, updates, and any other information relevant to running the hotel and getting their individual jobs done. The second way is from the hotel group to any guests, and it can cover everything from information about an upcoming stay to reward redemption to special requests to upcoming sales. 

Do you need communication skills in hospitality?

Yes. Like in any industry, good communication goes a long way in keeping everyone aligned around the same priorities and up to date on key pieces of information individuals need to know in order to do their jobs. If folks don’t have good communication skills, guest requests could go unanswered, tasks can be done incorrectly, and job performance can slow to a crawl.  

What is an example of hospitality communication?

Examples of hospitality communication include an employee informing guests about checkout policy, where their room is located, wifi access, breakfast times, and more. It’s a way to ensure the guest knows what they need to in order to have the best experience possible. 

Other examples include more internal communications. This could be newsletters updating staff on policy changes, emails about a high profile guest coming through, or they could include everyday updates about benefits, DEI, and more. 

What are the advantages of communication in the hospitality industry?

The better one’s communication skills are in the hospitality industry, the better their customer service will be. They can more quickly get guests the info they need to know or address any issues that arise. This will make for more efficient check-in and check-out times, which leads to a more efficient workforce. 

What are the communication tools used in the hospitality industry?

Nowadays, those in the hospitality industry use a variety of methods to communicate with various stakeholders. They may use email, newsletters, in-room signage, phone calls, apps, and websites to connect with guests and learn about their stay. However, they may use intranets, newsletters, and flyers to connect with frontline or deskless workers who need to be kept up to date on company happenings. 

How is AI revolutionizing internal communications for hospitality?
