Sounds like this is a hotel quality problem not a tech issue. Siris needs to grade hotels. Lets say a hotel does not have water that is a Siris grade F. Lets say it has water but no misquito nets its Siris Grade D. Hotels must pay to be graded by Siris. In return they get a sign that states their grade and Siris markets their hotel to potential guest.
- wamboga 11y agoWe're using technology to build a virtual hotel chain, and will distribute inventory through our portals or through partner travel agencies. We'll partner with hotels, standardizing experience and branding them under our banner. All our hotels will give a promise of a uniform experience, so no grading is required
- wehadfun 11y agoAssuming water will be part of this virtual hotel experience. How are you going to provide water in hotels that currently do not have it?
- wamboga 11y agoWe will ensure that hotels we partner with always have water, in Nairobi, for instance, water from local authorities is unreliable, so some hotels have boreholes, but many don't know those with these. We will standardize / ensure 5 main issues are met at partner hotels: water availability, clean rooms, diversified payment, good breakfast and access to basic amenities such as mosquito nets
- astrange 11y agoDo you not plan to have ratings at all? If the maintenance is being done by the hotel staff it won't always be the same quality, and people must care about things like location as well.
- wamboga 11y agoHotel categories will surely vary because certain places are primer. We intend to have alpha rooms for backpacking, flagship and elite rooms
