Dhow Hotel

Front desk, housekeeping and transfers for guesthouses, hotels and resorts.

Check a guest in from a phone in four screens: photograph the passports, pick the room, take the payment and a finger signature, hand over the key. Housekeeping updates the room from their phone; the restaurant charges the room from the till.

The front desk

What you get

The screens of Dhow Hotel

Each one is a real app, on the device it is used on: a phone, an iPad, a laptop or a screen on the wall.

Front desk

Arrivals, walk-ins, rooms by state, the folio, deposits, discounts with a reason, check-out with a numbered tax invoice. Green Tax and TGST worked out from the booking.

Housekeeping

Each housekeeper sees her rooms in the order they are needed and taps them clean. The supervisor allocates, inspects against your standard, and sends a room back for re-cleaning.

Transfers

Speedboat and seaplane runs with their manifests, the airport rep’s list, live boats on a map, and a flight delay flagged before the boat leaves.

Works with your restaurant

A guest charges dinner to the room from the table; the front desk sees it on the folio at once. Allergies recorded at check-in reach the kitchen.

What sets it apart

Three things you will notice in the first week

Check-in in four screens

Guests · Room · Pay & sign · Done. A screen with nothing to do is skipped.

Agents and OTAs

Who collected the money is recorded at check-in, so agent bills and OTA payouts are generated in Finance, not in a spreadsheet.

Your own hotel system?

The restaurant also connects to another front office through the published Dhow Hotel Interface.

A 30-minute video call where you drive. We set it up with you afterwards.
