Visby for Hotels

Your brand. Your guests.No app required.

A branded guest experience for before, during, and after the stay — on your website with booking widgets, or via lobby QR and booking links. Existing Visby travelers open the app they already have. A named App Store listing is optional later.

Optional guest app · Direct revenue vs OTAs

Guests see your hotel — not Visby.

How you go live

Three ways. Same guest OS. No app required.

Visby is the engine under your brand. Pick widgets, link-out, or both on day one — add a named App Store app only if you want the icing.

Website widgets

Drop rooms and experiences booking onto your own site — iframe or a one-line script. Guests book on your domain. No app required.

Link out · lobby QR

A booking link or lobby QR opens your branded stay on their phone. Hosted book pages work the same day you publish.

Own app · optional

Want a named App Store listing later? Same guest OS — Visby helps you ship it. Brand icing, never a blocker to go live.

Your brand on every screen

Your name. Your colors. Your voice.

Guests open an experience that looks and feels like your hotel built it. Existing Visby users stay in Visby; optional white-label App Store listings deep-link into the same guest OS.

Make it yours

Pick your name, colors, and tone once — guests see a branded stay that looks like your hotel built it. No App Store binary required.

Every screen is your brand

The welcome, the offers, the concierge chat — all in your hotel’s voice. Visby stays under the chrome.

Guests join in seconds

They scan a lobby QR or tap a booking link and continue on their phone. No separate hotel app download. Travelers who already have Visby can open that app — still your brand.

Personal concierge

Remembers the guest. Recommends nearby they would like.

Hotel Visby works like traveler Visby: it learns from the stay — what they booked, how they travel — then ranks catalog and nearby walks so the next suggestion feels chosen for them.

Learns the stay

Occasion, party size, dietary notes, and what they book become a living guest memory for that hotel.

Recommends nearby they would like

Walking tours, local tips, and stay offers reorder to fit how they travel — family, romance, food, quiet, culture.

Welcome-back continuity

Return guests hear “because you liked…” and see softer attach moments that match last time — not a cold restart.

How it works

Your brand for guests. One platform for your team.

Two sides of the same platform — one for people staying at your hotel, one for your team running it.

Guest experience

Your hotel's name, logo, and colors on their phone. Guests scan a lobby QR and continue into your stay — no separate hotel app download. Travelers who already have Visby can open that app; it still feels like yours.

Hotel portal

Rooms, rates, bookings, housekeeping, and channels in one place — Visby inventory for the pilot. Add staff by email. Connect Booking.com when credentials and live sync are ready.

Collaborative trip planning

The same Visby trip planner. Grounded in your stay.

Guests invite friends and family into a shared trip board, vote on ideas, and ask Visby to build the day — with your dining, spa, tours, and neighborhood walks first.

Invite your people

Friends and family join the same Visby trip board from the stay — one link, one shared plan.

Ask Visby together

Everyone shares tastes. Ask Visby builds days that fit the group, grounded in your catalog and neighborhood.

Vote on the plan

Rank dining, spa, tours, and nearby walks until the day feels obvious — no group-chat chaos.

Book from your catalog

When the group agrees, picks snap to bookable hotel offers first — spa, dining, upgrades, and services.

The money story

Digital guest journeys move real revenue.

Hotels that sell spa, dining, tours, and upgrades through their branded guest experience — not only the front desk — consistently capture more of the stay. These figures are industry patterns, not Visby customer guarantees.

20–30%

more guest spend beyond the room

Hotels using automated digital upselling often see roughly this lift versus manual front-desk pitches alone.

room to grow non-room revenue

Operators in a 2023 digital operations study saw room to grow spa, dining, and extras from about 15% toward 29% of revenue with automated promotions.

H2c Digital Hotel Operations Study

typical OTA room commission

Shift rebooks onto your direct path and keep more of the room. OTAs often take 15–25%; Visby takes 7% on rooms booked through checkout — you save the difference.

How we calculate
Annual room revenue$2,838,240
Via Visby / direct (20%)$567,648
OTA would take (20%)$113,530

Visby fee on rooms + extras increase$43,047

Occupied room-nights × rate × Visby share = room volume compared at OTA commission vs Visby's flat 7%. Extras increase applies to today's extras baseline; hotel keeps ~93% of incremental paid checkout. Illustrative only — not a Visby customer guarantee. Fulfillment and card-network costs not included.

The guest journey

Hotels already sell rooms. Visby helps them sell everything else.

Before

Start the relationship before arrival.

Guests open your branded stay early via link or QR. Visby learns occasion, party, and tastes so nearby ideas already feel personal — not a generic city list.

During

A concierge that knows them.

The same Visby trip board — invite friends, vote, Ask Visby — with spa, dining, and tours from your catalog first.

After

Remember them for the next stay.

What they booked and loved comes back as welcome continuity — so the next visit (and nearby picks) do not start from zero.
