Ho ho ho! It’s the holiday season - one of the busiest times of the year for hotels. Marriott properties know that this is a special time of the year for celebrating with family and friends, and that guests are going to want to feel as much at home as possible.
2026 is shaping up to demand hoteliers to refocus their operations in the new year. From a growing divide between the luxury and economy segments, to unprecedented decreases in international tourism to the United States, the state of the hospitality industry requires new and creative ways to meet the moment for travelers.
With the joy of the holidays comes a flurry of air travel and family trips across the country. In a competitive industry like hospitality, this is a great opportunity for the Marriott brand to step up their guest service and stand out from the rest. Good thing we made you a list of ways that hotel guest messaging can help with this busy season and spread some holiday cheer along the way!

One of the many drawbacks to introducing new technology to your property is the additional work it may put on your hotel staff. That’s where a connector comes into play. A connector is a one-way integration, passing guest data from your PMS to guest messaging software. Kipsu uses connectors to seamlessly integrate with IHG PMS software like HotelKey, Opera Cloud, and Hapi. There are several reasons why it’s helpful to have a connector integrate between the two systems, so let's take a look at some of the key benefits.
