A 21st Century Guest Welcome

Monday 11th February, 2019 by Host & Stay

Once the guest is inside any one of our Stay North Yorkshire properties, we ensure we provide them with just the right amount of information to make their stay as seamless as possible, and quite often this will take the form of a personalised welcome letter and easy access to the guest information manual.

There are two routes that we take here. A more traditional manual route which includes a leather-bound folder with all the required information about the property and local area. For those guests that can help but be drawn to technology, then our branded Your Welcome tablets provide a unique point of difference to other Holiday Let properties on the North Yorkshire Coast.

As standard, the following topics are covered within our Stay North Yorkshire welcome packs:

  • House Rules
  • Wi-Fi Information
  • Your Contact Information
  • Emergency Contact Information for local hospitals, doctors, dentists and vets
  • TV, TV Services, Music services or other relevant technical Instructions
  • Instructions on heating and thermostat controls
  • Recommendations and locations of local shops, restaurants, bars, pubs, and attractions
  • Local bus routes, train routes and timetables
  • Local taxi information and contact details

With our Your Welcome tablets, we can collect information about our guests on check-in, such as their email address and contact information in order to login to the tablet, and we can then use the tablet to guide our guests around the property using video topics. The tablets also provide local tourist guides, maps and can be translated into multiple languages.

Not only does this type of solution provide a modern way of delivering information to our guests, but also provides opportunities to increase revenue for our owners – from offering late checkouts and additional nights that can be paid for directly via the tablet.

In our larger properties, we offer our guests a menu selection containing wine, beer, prosecco, and chocolates – and when we started that offering, we would include a menu price within the guest information pack and rely on an honest box for guests to leave their payment. With the YourWelcome solution, guests can now make payments directly.

So, if you’re looking to provide your Holiday Home guests with a warm welcome, all the right information and a unique modern approach – then our fully managed service will ensure just that. So, find out how you can Get Started with us today.
