HotSOS Mobile

HotSOS Mobile for Android brings Amadeus’ award-winning Hotel Service Optimization System to mobile tablets and smartphones. It’s built to help hotel staff deliver the best possible guest experience—both from a service and facilities standpoint.

With HotSOS Mobile, employees and managers can access tools tailored to their responsibilities in day-to-day hotel operations. Role-based access lets the right staff members know about service requests that are waiting, view complete details, and manage assigned or pending tasks more effectively.

The app also supports creating service orders and running guestroom or public space inspections. Department leaders and hotel managers can manage operations on the go with the same system that powers on-property service coordination.

About

HotSOS Mobile is part of a collection of mobile dialog and insight tools designed to strengthen guest engagement and enable data-driven business decisions. On-site, guests can use Loop to request service, send compliments, or raise concerns using their personal devices through web, app, text messaging, or email.

Features

• Secure support from every stakeholder. It’s important that department heads are fully on board. Mobile service solutions deliver the greatest value when they’re used across all areas of the hotel—not just in one department.

• Remember: optimization often reveals issues first. Hotel managers may expect the system to automatically solve problems. In many cases, it mainly helps identify where service and operational gaps exist—often pointing to process or staffing changes that management must make.

  

• Think of it as a full hotel solution. Some hotels treat tools like HotSOS as only housekeeping or engineering-related. In reality, it supports hotel-wide management. If departments aren’t reporting problems to teams like engineering or housekeeping, the system won’t deliver results. Every department needs to participate.

  By equipping staff with Samsung Galaxy tablets, hotel leadership can make it easier for employees to report issues, respond to service orders, and improve productivity, accountability, and overall efficiency.

• Choose a fit for your requirements. With multiple solutions on the market, review each product’s feature set to confirm it matches your needs. One key capability is integration with other applications to create synergy and enable data sharing across platforms.

  HotSOS currently integrates with more than 100 partner vendors, and the Newmarket team continually looks for new partnership opportunities to enhance the guest and user experience.

• Roll it out from leadership down. Teams tend to take cues from what management prioritizes. A strong rollout starts at the top with buy-in and active involvement from senior hotel leaders.
