Introduction

Designed to feel at home with subtle Arabic touches, in white and blue colors. It offers a large common area, consisting of a living room (TV), a business room with tourist information, a hammam-spa (traditional Moroccan), a tea room and a restaurant serving traditional Moroccan food.

“A tool with incredible value for money: it improves the guest experience, reduces workload, and increases upsell revenue.”
Gerardo Narváez - Revenue & Marketing Manager at Hotel Al Alba Hammam & Restaurant

88% of Guest Messages Automated

Hotel Al Alba Hammam& Restaurant used to handle guest communication manually — everything from upsell offers to check-in instructions. It was time-consuming, inconsistent, and left money on the table.

That changed with Viqal.

By deploying Viqal’s Virtual Concierge on WhatsApp, the hotel automated 88% of all guest inquiries. Only 12% were escalated to staff. This cut the team’s workload dramatically while keeping guests engaged on the platform they actually use.

The result?

  • 80% fewer guest questions via Booking.com and email
  • More upsells, with personalized offers triggered automatically
  • Less manual follow-up, and a smoother guest experience

Viqal’s proactive messaging approach turned WhatsApp into a high-performing service and sales channel — saving time, driving revenue, and delivering the kind of guest experience modern travelers expect.
