As we embarked on this project, our mission was clear: to revolutionize the hospitality industry through automation using advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and IoT. But as usual, every innovative project comes with its own set of challenges. Here's a glimpse of the hurdles we overcame to bring seamless automation and customization to the guest experience:
One of the major challenges while working on this project was the complexity of building custom features for tailored guest experiences such as room automation, meal selection, interior customization, and entertainment preferences. Developing systems that could seamlessly handle such a level of extensive customization posed a significant challenge.
Another technical hurdle we faced was the integration of mobile applications with the hardware systems of various hotel partners through IoT technology. We required meticulous planning and efficient implementation to ensure that all the hotels; IoT setups could communicate and connect effectively with the mobile applications and deliver the desired automation for both hotels and their guests.
Our Client Hudini has partnerships with a vast range of hotel brands (such as Atlantis, Taj, Leela, and many others), each had its unique systems and processes. Building mobile apps that could cater to the specific requirements of the hotel brands was also challenging as it demanded a significant level of scalability and flexibility.
We understood that the mobile applications and systems we were building required to be reliable and flawless in order to deliver a seamless guest experience and make operations easier for hotel brands. To ensure high performance, and reliability and handle potential issues that could happen in various hotel environments, rigorous testing and optimizations were required.
Understanding the importance of guest's data privacy and security, it was essential to follow robust security measures. Protecting guest information from potential breaches or misuse requires robust security measures.
As Hudini keeps expanding its partnerships with hotel chains, the systems we built for Hudini demand scalability so it can seamlessly accommodate the expanding user base. Ensuring that the platforms could handle the increasing demands of the business without compromising performance was an ongoing challenge.
Our journey to transform the hospitality industry was marked by the development of cutting-edge solutions tailored to meet diverse needs. Here's a brief about how we helped our client with the intelligent solutions:
Our suite of custom mobile applications, available for Android, iOS, and PWAs, revolutionized the guest experience. Through AI-driven features, we personalized every interaction, empowering both hotel staff and guests alike.

We built a CMS named "Elevate" which served as a central platform for hotel partners to add and manage their data. This data was seamlessly fetched and integrated into their respective mobile applications, ensuring that each hotel's distinctive offerings, services, and process status could be accurately reflected in the mobile application further enabling efficient operations in the hotel and delivering seamless guest experiences.
In addition to multiple mobile applications for various hotel partners, PWAs, and CMS, we also built a Viceroy application for the prominent hotel brand Viceroy. It was an end-user application specifically designed for the hotel's guests allowing them to virtually check in and add their preferences prior to reaching the hotel, thereby saving time and effort during their arrival. This application exemplified our commitment to delivering tailored solutions for each hotel partner.
