Tomorrow’s hotels are no longer just places to rest overnight; they have become service platforms where efficiency, personalization, and innovation lie at the heart of the guest experience. Thanks to robotics, the hospitality sector is undergoing a major transformation. Service robots—whether it’s the Servi Plus or other robots developed by companies like Exobot—are redefining both the guest experience and internal hotel operations.
Service Robots: Beyond Simple Reception
One of the main roles of robots in hotels is to reduce repetitive interactions and free staff to focus on higher-value services. Robots, such as those used in cutting-edge hotels, can perform simple yet essential tasks: welcoming guests, escorting them to their rooms, delivering items or meals, and even transporting luggage. But their impact goes far beyond logistics.
Robotics integration doesn’t just automate tasks—it transforms hospitality. While interacting with a robot might seem impersonal at first, as these machines become smarter and customizable, they create a unique and memorable experience. For example, a robot like the Servi Plus, capable of recalling guests’ names, room preferences, or even details about local events, truly personalizes every interaction.

Service Automation: Saving Time for Staff and Guests
In a world where time is precious, automating services allows hotels to drastically reduce wait times. Instead of making a guest wait for room service, a robot can deliver requests within minutes. This efficiency also benefits employees by letting them focus on more creative or strategic aspects of customer service, such as managing special requests or personalizing the guest experience.
AI at the Service of Personalization
The real strength of these service robots lies in their adaptability. Thanks to artificial intelligence (AI), robots learn in real time. If a guest prefers a particular type of pillow or a specific room temperature, these details can be memorized to improve future stays. AI thus enables a highly personalized guest experience, boosting satisfaction and loyalty.
A Solution to Labor Shortages
One of the major challenges facing the hospitality industry is labor shortages. With growing demand for quality services, it becomes increasingly difficult for hotels to recruit and retain sufficient staff. Robotics growth allows hotels to fill this gap by handling simple, repetitive tasks while freeing employees to focus on higher-value roles. Robots are not here to replace humans but to complement their work, providing genuine support to the team.
Greener, More Energy-Efficient Hotels
Another often overlooked but important benefit of using robots in hotels is their environmental impact. By optimizing travel routes and improving energy management, robots help make hotels more eco-friendly. They also help reduce waste and optimize the use of resources such as towels and cleaning supplies.
