Why Digital Hotel Compendiums Should Not Cost More

No matter what compendium or guest communication format your property offers your guests, it should not have to cost your management team and arm and a leg, both in time and cost.

Your property has many on-going operating costs, including keeping your compendiums up to date. Upgrading from a traditional to a digital hotel compendium, however, should not cost extra.

The costliest factor for most hotel compendium solutions, is related to the resources provided in each guest room to deliver your property and local area details, alongside your property’s services.

What if there was a guest communication solution that can not only improve your guest experience with communication and receiving relevant details, but at no additional cost?

The Cost-Effective Solution

Our Hinfo Digital Hotel Compendium does exactly this, for the same or less than your current compendium solution, depending on the size of your property.

This is all possible, by integrating our bring your own device solution, which allows all of your guests to access your property services, on their own smartphones, tablets and laptop computers they already bring to your property.

Hinfo not only matches the cost of other guest solutions at most but allows your property to invest the same monetary amount into a service, that has infinitely more benefits for both management and guests.

Hotel Compendiums are only one part of your property’s operations. It cannot brew coffee for your guests, or change your guests bed sheets every day, but it is a critical communication tool to increase communication between your management and guests.

Post COVID-19 World

After the coronavirus pandemic, integrating a zero-contact solution should also not require investing in a compendium format, that needs additional time and costs for cleaning between each changeover of guests.

No other guest solution available, can provide a high level of guest communication without breaking any one or more of the following:

Value for Money

Hinfo provides our members all of these major perks in addition to several others.

No Dedicated Resources in Each Room

Hinfo is accessible on your guests own smartphones, tablets and laptops which they already bring to your property. This means they can easily connect to your property’s Wi-Fi network or their own mobile data to access your services, which they already do.


Gone are the days where you need to provide a printed compendium in each room, which would then need to be cleaned thoroughly between each changeover of guests.

Guest Access Anywhere

Smartphones, tablets and laptops are all portable digital devices.

The fact that your guests brought them to your property, makes them portable in themselves.

Your guests carry their smartphones with them everywhere they go.

People want data at their fingertips, anywhere and our Hinfo service allows your guests, to remain connected to your property’s services and local area details from anywhere.

Guests Have Their Own Access

Guests not only bring their own devices to your property, but every guest who is at least a teenager and older, in every room does.

Our contactless solution also means guests do not need to share around, the communal printed compendium or in-room hotel tablet, with everyone staying in the same room.

Unlimited Information Updates

Our digital solution also means you can update your property and local area details at any time, without needing to visit every guest room.

This is also a massive time and cost saver, even if it is to fix a simple typo or update pricing for your property’s services.

Cost Comparison

As illustrated throughout this blog post, our service costs the same or less compared to other compendium solutions, depending on the size of your property.

Now we are going to give you the real-world examples.

3 Reasons Why Hinfo is a Subscription-Based Model

    Since launching Hinfo back in 2017, many properties have questioned why our service is sold on a subscription-based model. We understand this is an entirely different way of thinking how you are paying for your hotel compendiums , but we strongly believe in the benefits of this for your property management, mainly for being a digital solution. As you will quickly realize, our motivation from the beginning was always to be a subscription-based model, to help keep costs down for you, including over the long term. Dramatically Lower Upfront Investment All successful businesses rely on a positive cash flow. Acquiring a new asset or service for any business is more manageable in smaller payments, than one large lump sum, especially if the latter is multiple thousands of dollars. Our   Hinfo   service is available with either monthly or annual payment terms. Every property pays no more than one year in advance at a time. Either of these add up to significantly less than any other digital
