When your guests connect to the Hotel WiFi, a nicely designed splash page will appear on their device. You can easily customize the splash page with logo, background, and colors, and decide how your guests will start their session.
The splash page can be configured to offer free Internet, high-speed paid access, collect email and customer data, login with social network account, show video advertisements. One of the most important features is integration with PMS – a guest can login with the room and name after check-in.
Once logged-in, guest may be redirected to the welcome page, hotel website or promotion page. The guest may be limited with download and upload speed, available bandwidth transfer, time to use your service, expiration, and limit access to one or multiple devices. That provides good WiFi experience for all your guests, and prevents one user taking most of the bandwidth for hi-def video streaming.
While free Wi-Fi is a must for both business and leisure travelers, people on work trips seem to hold this amenity on a higher pedestal. 53% of guests also wish free Wi-Fi was a standard amenity across all hotels.
CloudGate Hotel WiFi solution helps you offer free or paid Hotel WiFi access, efficiently manage and control it:
Set up Hotel WiFi, configure your branding, create extra profits. No compromises.
Integrate Hotel WiFi with your PMS system (Opera and 20+ other
systems) and
automate billing for your guests.
Customer chooses username, password, price plan (like 7 days Internet) and confirms the identity
with a room
number and personal details. If successful, Internet is enabled and payment is added on provided
room
number, and the customer will see this charge in your PMS.
Hotel WiFi system can be configured to provide free access (no charge), to apply the
complimentary plan to
member or loyalty guests, or provide a list of available plans so users can choose and pay.
Hotel WiFi software helps you create different Internet plans and offer free or paid Internet access.
Internet plan determines which download and upload speed the guest will have
during the session,
total
bandwidth data available for transfer, optional session duration, as well as the
optional expiration
date.
Ability to offer paid upgrade is very important, as business users or those needing
video streaming will
not be satisfied with your free-level service.
On contrary, users needing only simple services as browsing or Email access would
appreciate a free
offer, and be loyal to your main services.
Collect reviews from your guests and use them to increase
the hotel’s
TripAdvisor rank. Our system is designed to collect guest opinions when they
are the most
motivated to
give a positive review. Those reviews are a valuable source of information to guests
when opting for a
hotel, since 93% of guests take these online reviews into consideration, whereas 53%
wouldn’t book a
hotel without the reviews.
In addition, it prevents customer dissatisfaction by informing a manager of negative
comments or
complaints and gives a chance of converting guest experience while the guest is still on
hotel grounds.
