24/7 Guest Self-Service

The front desk that never sleeps.

Check-in, key issue, upsell, concierge answers — in any language, at any hour, without waking your night staff.

It recognizes your returning guests.

Opt-in face recognition lets the kiosk greet returning guests by name, in their language, and skip the parts they have already done.

  • Returning guests are recognized and greeted by name on approach
  • Switches to the guest's preferred language automatically
  • Upsell offers tuned to that guest's history and past stays
  • Multi-sample enrollment for reliable recognition across angles and lighting

Face recognition is strictly opt-in and consent-based — guests who don't enroll get the same fast check-in, anonymously.

From WhatsApp to door code to kiosk — one arrival.

A guest can message on WhatsApp, get their door code, and be recognized at the kiosk on arrival — one continuous hand-off, no front desk in the loop.

  • Guest messages on WhatsApp; the AI confirms the booking and arrival window
  • A booking-linked door code is issued automatically (TTLock)
  • On arrival the kiosk recognizes the guest and completes check-in
  • ARIA coordinates the whole hand-off across messaging, locks, and kiosk

Honesty about limits

What it won’t do.

A kiosk handles the repeat layer so your team can handle the edge cases. These are the moments it will hand off to a human.

  • Group check-ins of 8 or more

    Large group arrivals need a human to coordinate room assignments, special requests, and arrival sequencing. The kiosk routes the group lead to your front desk.

  • Billing disputes

    Folio corrections, refund requests, or disputed charges are routed to a duty manager with the relevant booking context pre-loaded.

  • Decisions only a manager can make

    Late checkout on a sold-out night, room change to a booked suite, comping a stay. The kiosk flags the request and notifies the on-call manager.

  • First-time guests from a high-risk travel pattern

    ARIA can flag walk-ins that deserve a human eye (no booking history, one-night stay, late check-in). The kiosk steps aside and calls for the night porter.

A kiosk is a front-desk colleague, not a replacement for one.

We'll ship a demo unit, configure it to your property, and run a week of shadow operations before it goes live to guests.
