The last thing travelers want to deal with on their vacation is severe weather. Severe weather can really put a damper on a vacation, whether it is closing enjoyable amenities or the potential danger that the weather could bring. When all guests want to do is relax, this can cause a lot of stress. Although hotels can’t control the weather, they can control how they handle the situation at hand to make sure guests feel safe and relaxed as possible. That is where hotel texting comes to the rescue!

When we think of travel lodging, we often separate options into a couple of main groups: hotels and short-term rentals. However, within the hotel sphere, there are many ways to classify different places to stay. For example, boutique hotels and chain hotels offer contrasting experiences for travelers. Boutique hotels, with their intimate size and local ownership, pride themselves on unique decor, personalized service, and cultural immersion.

For smaller, independent hotels, good TripAdvisor scores and reviews are even more meaningful. At these unique properties, guest relationships are integral to keeping loyal customers. Engaging with guests and making meaningful connections is what makes guests feel welcomed, valued, and cared for.

We gathered several TripAdvisor reviews from our partners that share the sentiment of feeling connected through Kipsu’s messaging system. Read these reviews to see how hotel texting actually makes guests feel the personalized experience they look and come back for at independent hotels.

On July 19th, a flawed update from the company CrowdStrike caused one of the largest IT outages in history that affected nearly 8.5 million Windows devices. This affected banks, airlines, hospitals, and train networks, etc. Hotels from major brands like Marriott and Hilton were greatly affected, from not being able to process credit cards to having to walk guests personally to their room. Outages like this are rare, but when they happen, it can greatly derail hotel operations and your customer service will matter more than ever before. Especially when we rely on technology so heavily in our work lives as well in our personal lives, it's crucial to have a back up plan that is easily accessible and to be prepared if a similar situation happens again down the road.
