What is a hotel chatbot?

A hotel chatbot is a conversational interface that primarily answers frequently asked questions and routes guests — often with scripts or limited grounding — rather than completing booking or service writes in the hotel system of record.

Why it matters

Chatbots reduce ticket volume for simple questions. They usually struggle when guests need availability, holds, modifications, or in-stay service that must touch live inventory.
