One workflow, end to end

Shared Team Inbox for Hotels: One Property Number, No Dropped Handover

The property's WhatsApp number is answered by the front desk at midnight, by reservations in the morning and by the sales desk whenever a banquet enquiry surfaces. Everyone can see the chats and nobody owns any of them, so a request for a corporate rate receives a polite reply about room availability, and a guest asking to extend a stay waits while two people each assume the other has it. A shared inbox makes ownership explicit without handing anyone the phone.

Three shifts and one handset

Most properties run direct enquiries through a single WhatsApp account logged in on a device at the desk. It works until it matters. The night shift answers a question and the morning shift has no idea it happened. The sales manager who needed the wedding enquiry never sees it, because it scrolled past behind six airport pickups. When the receptionist who handled a thread takes a day off, the conversation is unreachable.

The handover is where the revenue goes. A banquet enquiry arriving on the same number as a housekeeping request has to reach the sales desk within minutes, with what the guest already said intact. Retyping it into an email, or forwarding a screenshot, loses the date, the pax and the tone of the request. And nobody can answer the simplest question of all, which is how long an enquiry waited before any human replied to it.

Assignment, context and a record behind every chat

Every conversation on the property number opens in one inbox with a named owner. Reservations keeps room enquiries, the sales desk is assigned banquet and corporate threads, and an open conversation is visibly in progress so two people never reply at once. Each chat links to the guest or enquiry record, so whoever picks it up already sees the last stay, the open deal and the rate quoted. Auto-assignment runs on rules, round-robin or existing ownership. Response times are tracked per conversation, which turns we reply quickly into a number the revenue manager can actually see.

A banquet enquiry that arrives at eleven at night

A guest messages the property number asking about a hall for two hundred people in December.

  1. 1The night duty manager sees it in the shared inbox and acknowledges it without quoting a rate.
  2. 2The conversation is assigned to the banquet desk and tagged as an event enquiry.
  3. 3A deal is created from the thread with the date and guest count captured from what was written.
  4. 4The sales manager opens at nine with the full chat and the record, and asks nothing twice.
