Restaurant Ordering Software Can Help Hotels/Restaurants in Thailand

Thai culture is extremely welcoming; so one would wonder why a large hotel needs to offer guests any additional table and room ordering option such as restaurant ordering software. Many hotels in Thailand are staffed with literal armies or people just waiting to help customers make an additional order. Even the smallest roadside restaurant has smiling people ready to add the next ice cube into your drink.

Languages Other Than English

Language is a huge challenge. Staff want to please but cannot communicate in the guest language. While the tourist industry in Thailand has made huge headway into educating service staff it’s a huge ask for staff to speak languages other than English to cater to the influx; of Chinese and Indian tourists. An app can help here. Providing menus and services in multiple languages allows staff to focus more on the delivery of a meal or service requested. Guests can interact with the hotel in their language to see what is on offer. Hotels are then better equipped to reach out to their guests rather than see them look elsewhere for a service provided by the hotel.

Huge Venues

The sheer size of resort complexes in Thailand makes for a challenge. Low services areas at the far edge of the pool mean that guests will rather lie back in their beds rather than walk to the bar. Restaurant ordering software can help here. This can mean that a guest sitting by the pool can order from a restaurant on the far side of the resort increasing sales for each venue and removing the distance problem. A guest may not even know the hotel bar has a happy hour and thus leave the premises in search of something that caters to their needs. Room and table ordering software informs guests of specials, discounts, events, and services – direct to their phone and where they want to order.

Tourists Stay In Multiple Hotels

A typical tourist visiting Thailand will most likely visit more than one location staying at a range of different hotel brands. An ordering platform connecting these venues will ensure guests can interact with each of these hotels using the same app. While no hotel brand wants to simply be an off-the-shelf item on a large platform; rather shows a unique offering of services and experiences. A hotel ordering platform that respects the unique style of the venue while part of a larger network will ensure the venue’s experience offers to a larger range of guests in multiple languages. Even medium-sized independent hotels can be connected and cross-sell to each other by being part of the same platform.
