How to choose a virtual receptionist for your hotel or restaurant: 7 questions

If you’re comparing ways to answer guests at any hour, these are the questions worth asking before you decide.

  1. Which channels does it cover? Ideally phone, WhatsApp, email and your website chat, with the same information.
  2. Does it answer from your real details? Rates, availability, opening hours and house rules, without making things up.
  3. Does it speak your guests’ languages?
  4. Does it connect to your booking system? And if you don’t have one?
  5. Can you see every conversation and decide what gets shared?
  6. How long does set-up take, and who does it?
  7. Is there a minimum contract? What does it cost per month, and for extra use?
