Hotel Speak

📈 In September 2025, Apaleo launched the MCP server, becoming the first property management platform to connect AI agents with hotel systems, unveiled at The Annual Hospitality Conference in Manchester. MCP simplifies hotel operations by allowing AI agents to handle tasks in hours instead of weeks. This advancement moves hotels from automation to autonomy. Apaleo's new Agent Factory lets hotels co-design AI agents. MCP empowers independent hotels, enabling rapid innovation and competitive equality.

📱 Profitroom launched AI Agent, a 24/7 virtual assistant helping over 3,500 global hotel and pub operators increase direct bookings. It offers real-time, multilingual support across hotel websites, Messenger, and WhatsApp. AI Agent enhances conversion rates with tailored packages and "Book Now" prompts, integrating seamlessly with Profitroom’s booking engine. Patryk Luszcz and Mike Balman highlighted its ability to ease staff workloads and meet high guest expectations, addressing the limitations of traditional chatbots.

💸 Profitroom partners with IDeaS, launching integration on May 19th for UK users. Hoteliers gain access to IDeaS' AI-powered tools for revenue forecasting and optimization. This collaboration democratizes advanced revenue management for hotel and pub groups of all sizes, enhancing profitability and efficiency. Michael McCartan and Patryk Luszcz emphasize improving competitiveness and simplifying operations. This initiative supports independent operators amid challenges like National Insurance hikes and employment law changes, focusing on delivering excellent guest experiences.
