Hotel Self Service Kiosk in Malaysia

Written by Amanda | Nov 13, 2020 9:12:14 AM

The COVID-19 pandemic has sped up the adoption of hotel kiosks in the hospitality business. In this article, we listed six hotel kiosk suppliers in Malaysia.

Malaysian are familiar with hotel kiosks thanks to Resort World Genting. Resort World Genting installed the first kiosk in the year 2015. Some hotels in Malaysia have started to make use of kiosk systems. The kiosk helps reduce guest queuing time, and operational costs and now it has another reason - to lower the spread of COVID-19. 

In case you haven't read this article, we have compiled a list of items that you will need to consider before buying a hotel kiosk. We've also covered what you will need to know before you get a hotel kiosk app or software and what other features you should consider getting in the kiosk software here. If you're planning to buy a kiosk, do check out the hotel kiosk price range article.

 

The kiosk is especially useful for foreign guests from different countries who do not speak the local language, as the kiosk system can support multiple languages removing barriers to communication between guests and the hotel. The kiosk system also allows hotels to upsell additional amenities to guests. Therefore, we believe hotel kiosk is another step in hotel automation.

Here we have compiled a list of vendors here in Malaysia that provide hotel kiosk systems.
