Stop Losing Thousands on Outdated Hotel Phones

Learn How Hotels Are Losing Up to $50K Annually on Phones and What You Can Do to Stop It

Hotel Phone

There was a time when hotel phones played a key role in generating revenue. Guests made calls from their rooms, and hotels earned a share of the call charges. But with smartphones and internet calling, guests rarely use room phones anymore. What was once a source of income has now become a cost. Even so, hotels are still expected to provide phones in guest rooms for safety and emergency use.

But this doesn’t have to mean extra costs you can’t avoid.

There are alternatives, such as SIP, VoIP, or in-room tablets, to consider if you want to update your hotel phone system as optimized as possible.

We prepared this guide to help you identify where this money is going, how to turn it around, and even make additional revenue with your guest communication tool.
