It is critical for hotels to optimize costs to ensure the sustainability of business operations. One way they can look forward to cost optimization opportunities without compromising service levels is leveraging technology and digital transformation initiatives. Technology and automation can not only help hotels optimize and gain efficiency at reduced costs, but also facilitate agility, thereby assuring business continuity.
