The hospitality sector faces important challenges that require a smart and flexible response
Competition:Many hotel brands
address the same client segments with
comparable services; differentiation of brand
value is essential.
Changing customer base:New generation of guests takes latest technologies for
granted, while questioning some of the traditional hospitality concepts.
Rising service expectations:Guests expect enhanced services, i.e. more personalization during their stay but also before and after their stay.
Increasing cost consciousness:Recent economic downturn has led many companies to cut their travel budgets; likewise, leisure travelers
have become more cost conscious.

(1) Revenue share model
Revenues are split between the hotelier and the service provider
Swisscom and hotel agree on charged service
Swisscom Light users may be unhappy to be charged for basic web browsing, sending emails etc.(2) Fixed
fee modelHotelier pays a fixed fee per room per month. Hotelier has full pricing control.
