Imagine if you could offer your guests a realistic and comprehensive preview of your hotel before they even book. Virtual reality makes this possible and is fundamentally changing the way people make their travel decisions. As experienced VR experts, Around360 develops innovative Virtual Guided Video Tours that take traditional hotel marketing into a digital future.
Virtual hotel tours offer you as a hotel operator many opportunities to optimize the customer experience and enable your guests to make an emotional connection to your brand. From detailed 360-degree tours of hotel rooms and immersive tours of the spa and wellness area to virtual concierge services, VR technology opens up new ways of communicating with guests. In this article, you will find out how VR technology can future-proof your hotel and what specific benefits it has in store for you and your guests.
The hotel industry is experiencing a revolution in travel planning thanks to virtual reality. In recent years, Around360 has seen a massive increase in demand for virtual presentation solutions. The ability to experience hotels in 360-degree panoramas and high-resolution 3D tours gives potential guests the chance to get to know the ambience, style and special features of your accommodation up close.
The technical quality is crucial here. With high-resolution HDR images in 16K resolution, you can create impressive virtual worlds that do justice to your brand and arouse the interest of potential guests. A Matterport camera enables the creation of a realistic “doll’s house” model of your hotel through automated 360-degree shots and laser scanning.
Another advantage of our virtual tours is the integration of booking functions that significantly shorten the customer journey. A recent study shows that 57% of leisure travelers and 46% of business travelers want a 360° virtual tour on the hotel website. The effect is impressive: hotels report an increase in bookings following the implementation of virtual tours. Transparency creates trust and makes decision-making much easier.
The use of virtual reality opens up new dimensions for your hotel marketing. With Around360’s Virtual Guided Video Tours, you can transform the image of your hotel and have a lasting impact on the way potential guests experience your accommodation.
Advantages for the hotel operator:
VR allows guests to explore your accommodation and the surrounding area at their leisure. They get a comprehensive overview and can make an informed decision. The immersive experiences allow them to compare different room categories and get to know the hotel environment. Virtual tours create transparency and trust – two decisive factors that have a positive influence on booking behavior.
By using the latest technology, you can transform your guests’ hotel stay into a unique, digital experience. VR-supported hotel tours allow your guests to immerse themselves in immersive scenarios and explore the hotel in a completely new way. Thanks to mobile VR glasses and our TimeRide GO! technology, authentic insights into various hotel areas can be provided and practical orientation aids offered at the same time.
In addition, virtual concierge services and AI-supported room controls offer real added value. Guests have round-the-clock access to automated check-in and check-out processes, personalized room control via voice command and direct access to hotel services via WhatsApp or SMS. These smart technologies take the guest experience to a new level and optimize the workload of staff.
Sustainable tourism is at a turning point and our Virtual Guided Video Tours play a key role in this. Virtual tours offer significant environmental benefits and protect fragile ecosystems. VR makes it possible to explore sensitive cultural sites and natural wonders without endangering them. This digital innovation enables people with reduced mobility to experience places that would otherwise be difficult to access and contributes to accessibility.
The implementation of virtual reality requires careful planning. To meet the technical requirements, Around360 supports you in selecting the right VR hardware, setting up a stable network infrastructure and integrating it into existing booking systems. We also attach particular importance to data protection and the transparent processing of sensitive data – all data is stored on data protection-compliant servers.
Virtual reality is fundamentally changing the hotel industry and creating measurable benefits for hotel operators and guests. The combination of 360-degree tours, virtual concierge services and sustainable travel experiences opens up new opportunities for hotel marketing. Modern hotels are increasing their booking rates and at the same time reducing cancellations through transparent virtual presentations of their offers.
With Around360 ‘s Virtual Guided Video Tours, you not only create an innovative hotel experience, but also real added value for your guests and staff. Discover now how virtual reality can take your hotel marketing to a new level – the future of the hotel industry is waiting for you.
