Summary | New technologies are becoming increasingly prevalent in the hospitality industry: contemporary guests want to make their reservations and check in via their smartphones rather than in person. Hotels are beginning to hire their own in-house tech staff for digital development. Parking spaces are administrated digitally, guest WiFi is expected to function well and be safe - some are even planning to replace room keys with face recognition software upon entering a hotel room.
