πŸš€ Challenge

Located in the heart of Ulcinj, Guest House Koliqi offers a warm, authentic experience to travelers from around the world. But as the number of international bookings grew, so did the challenges:

  • Front desk overwhelmed with repetitive questions
  • Manual check-in causing delays and friction
  • No structured way to gather guest feedback
  • Missed opportunities to upsell or assist during the stay

The team knew they needed to modernize β€” without losing their personal touch.

πŸ’‘ Solution: One Smart WhatsApp Agent for the Entire Guest Journey

We partnered with Koliqi.com to deploy a WhatsApp-based AI assistant that handles three key stages of the guest experience:

1. βœ… Pre-Arrival Smart Check-In

Two days before each booking, guests receive a personalized WhatsApp message:

β€œHi [Name], we’re excited to welcome you to Guest House Koliqi! To save time at check-in, you can securely send your ID here and let us know your arrival time.”

  • πŸ›‚ Guests upload their passport/ID photo directly in WhatsApp
  • πŸ“₯ Data is forwarded securely to the hotel reception
  • πŸ• Guests can confirm ETA and make special requests (e.g., baby cot, parking)

Result: 75% of guests now complete check-in before arrival β€” freeing up staff and improving first impressions.

2. πŸ›ŽοΈ During Stay: Instant Concierge Service

Throughout their stay, guests can message the hotel via WhatsApp for instant help:

  • β€œWhat time is breakfast?”
  • β€œCan I get an extra pillow?”
  • β€œCan you recommend a good seafood restaurant?”

The AI assistant handles 90% of these requests instantly, forwarding complex ones to human staff via Telegram.

Result: Faster response times and higher satisfaction β€” especially with international guests who prefer messaging over calling.

3. ⭐ Post-Stay Feedback & Review Boost

After checkout, the same agent sends a friendly follow-up:

β€œThanks for staying at Guest House Koliqi! How was your experience?”

  • Guests rate their stay with 1–5 stars
  • 4–5 star guests are guided to leave a Google or Booking.com review
  • 1–3 star guests are escalated privately for management follow-up

Result:

  • 3Γ— increase in 5-star reviews
  • Valuable insights on room cleanliness, staff, and comfort
  • Improved guest recovery when something went wrong
