CallsYou for hotels, guesthouses and travel agencies

A guest who lands on a hotel website usually has one specific question: are dogs allowed, is there parking, what time is breakfast, can I check in after 10 pm. If they don't get an answer right away, they go back to the booking platform and book there - and you pay commission on a guest who was already on your site. In peak season the front desk is checking guests in, checking them out and answering the phone all at once, while wedding and corporate retreat inquiries wait until Monday. CallsYou answers in chat from your own website and points guests to your booking engine, and for bigger inquiries it connects them with a person, usually in about 30 seconds.

What costs you time and money today

A guest asks on your website whether they can bring a dog and whether a minibus fits in the parking lot, gets no answer - and books through an online travel agency, so you give away commission on a room you could have sold directly.
During summer, school holidays and long weekends the front desk is checking guests in, settling check-outs and answering the phone at the same time, and the website chat sits unanswered until late at night.
Inquiries for weddings, family celebrations, conferences and team retreats - the most valuable business of the year - come in through a form on Sunday evening and wait for the events coordinator until Monday, while the client sends the same request to five other venues.
Before the season a travel agency answers the same questions on repeat: what's the single-room supplement, is there an airport transfer, up to what age do kids get a discount, what exactly does all-inclusive cover.

Where it pays off most: an assistant when the front desk is swamped

The assistant reads your site on its own - room descriptions, rates, amenities, breakfast hours, pet policy, spa offer, directions and contact details - and checks for changes every night, so a new holiday package shows up in its knowledge quickly. In the dashboard you add what isn't on the site: a three-night minimum over New Year's Eve, that cribs must be requested in advance, that wedding inquiries always get offered a call with your events coordinator. CallsYou doesn't take reservations or connect to your booking system - the assistant links to your booking engine or a specific room and takes the guest there while the chat stays open. You can set the AI to answer only when nobody from the front desk is at the chat. For group and event inquiries the assistant takes a number and the system connects the guest with one of your people - right away or at a time the guest chooses.

Step by step

What it looks like in practice

Times and numbers are examples - they show the situation, not a guaranteed result.

1An evening question about a stay

It's 10:50 pm, the front desk is checking in late arrivals, and Anna asks in chat whether she can bring her dog for a winter-break stay and whether there's parking. The hotel has set the AI to answer when nobody's at the chat.

2An answer with a booking link

From your website, the assistant shares the pet policy and pet fee, the parking details and a link to the garden-access room in your booking engine. Anna goes to the room page and the chat stays open.

3A bigger request

Anna then asks whether the hotel could host her dad's 60th birthday for 25 people, with rooms for some of the guests. Your dashboard says to always offer a call with the events coordinator for parties, so the assistant doesn't make up a price - it offers a callback.

4A callback at a time she picks

The coordinator starts at 9 am, so Anna picks a callback at 11 am the next day and leaves her number. The request waits in the dashboard and the team gets a notification.

5The call and a provisional booking

At 11 am the system calls the coordinator - from the hotel's own local number if you've added that option - and connects her with Anna, usually in about 30 seconds. The coordinator sees Anna viewed the banquet room, the party menu and the family rooms, so they go straight to the date, headcount and rooms.

Features

The features that work hardest here

An AI assistant that knows your property

It reads room descriptions, rates, amenities, house rules and directions straight from your site and checks for changes every night - new packages and seasonal offers show up without manual updates.

AI when nobody's at the chat

The front desk replies when they have a moment, and while they're checking guests in or overnight, the assistant answers. Staff can take over any conversation at any time just by replying.

Seasonal knowledge in the dashboard

New Year's minimum stays, spring and holiday packages, pool closure dates - add what isn't on the site and update it season by season.

Callbacks from the hotel's number

We call from a shared number included in your plan or, as a paid add-on, from your own number with the area code you choose - for example, a local one for your region. Phone calls are always handled by a person.

In the language of guests from abroad

The assistant replies in the language the customer writes in - a guest from Germany gets answers in German, one from the UK in English.

FAQ

Questions

Can the assistant take a room booking?

No - CallsYou doesn't connect to booking systems or confirm availability. The assistant answers the guest's questions, links to your booking engine or a specific room, and for group inquiries takes a number for a callback.

Does it work for a travel agency?

Yes. The assistant answers questions about destinations, dates, supplements and what a package includes - based on your website and dashboard notes. It doesn't give legal advice, such as on visas - it shares what's on your site and passes the topic to a consultant.

What about offers that change every season?

The assistant checks your site for changes every night, so new packages and rates make it into its knowledge automatically. Last-minute deals or long-weekend terms that aren't on the site you add in the dashboard and remove when they expire.
