Virgin Hotels Offers Contactless Experience Via Mobile App
According to a Hotel Business article, Virgin Hotels has updated its contactless experience through its mobile app, Lucy. Users can bypass the front desk and check-in, access mobile keys and Apple Music, as well as control the television, lights and thermostat.
“As the hospitality industry and guest needs are constantly changing, so will Lucy,” Denise Walker, VP of IT technology, said in the above article. “The recent upgrade dramatically improves the experience for both guests and operations and allows guests to directly control their experience from the moment they book—whether they’re selecting their room during pre-arrival or obtaining a mobile key to settle into their stay.
Walker says that once they are in their hotel room, the latest version of Lucy extends the ability for guests to directly make service requests through the app, allowing a highly personalized experience through real-time communications. Ultimately, the overall effect on operations is that more time is spent providing great service and less time is spent on recovery.
“Thanks to Lucy, operations can meet guest needs accurately and efficiently, where a high-touch personal response is necessary,” says Walker. “Moving forward, particularly in the age of COVID, the features in Lucy will continue to evolve and change to meet the moment and the guest’s needs as effectively as possible.”
