Near-Term Machine Learning Use Cases for Hospitality
Using interfaces to access the multitudes of information housed within a hotel's property management system (PMS), technology vendors have on their hands a literal treasure trove of first-party training data for machine learning applications. Any primary data extraction must nevertheless be focused around specific use cases that must be tested and verified before deploying in a live environment. Thus far, we've seen lots of discussion around what's possible in the abstract for machine learning, but outside of perhaps chatbots and algorithmic rate optimization recommendations, many of the purported use cases are not practical for the here and now.
So, if we look specifically at machine learning applications based upon a PMS data extraction, what top three use cases or tools should hoteliers investigate in 2024, and what tangible value will be created?

The Hotel Yearbook Technology 2024
The HOTEL Yearbook Technology 2024 delves into the transformative power of data in the hospitality
industry,
exploring how the "everything-data decade" is reshaping the landscape. This year's edition
emphasizes the surge of
data-focused innovations and products with open architectures for seamless data exchange and
micro-applications
embedded in diverse tech stacks. As data, often dubbed "the new oil", becomes pivotal for hotels to
refine brand
identities and the struggle to offer hyper-personalized services, it also plays a critical role in
managing labor and energy resources
efficiently. The publication provides essential insights and recommendations into harnessing data for
superior service
delivery, agile resource optimization, robust data security, and crafting extraordinary guest
experiences.
