The move towards a contactless guest experience is spreading like wildfire.

Hoteliers review all the multiple touchpoints between staff and guests in their customer journey. They also map out areas where contactless technology could be used to reduce exposure while simultaneously preserving the brand?s uniqueness at the same time.
