Transforming hotel cleaning: a much-needed shift
The power of hotel reviews
In today's digital age, hotel reviews have a big impact on how guests see your hotel and its future success. The main things guests care about are how clean the hotel is. These factors guide reviews to be positive or negative. Reviews also reflect how well the hotel is managed. A good review in this area directly affects the hotel's reputation. Plus, reviews show if the hotel is set for future success, attracting money and investor confidence.

Well-being for your team
Moving from manual cleaning to mechanical cleaning is about more than just being efficient. It's about caring for your cleaning team. Manual ways of cleaning can hurt your staff, making them tired, unhappy, and even ill.
i-team Global's solutions ease their workload, creating a team that's not just working but working happily. This boosts overall morale and attracts new employees. No better marketing than word-of-mouth-marketing.
Mechanical cleaning
The transition from manual to mechanical cleaning is improving efficiency standards for hotel management. i-team’s co-botic 45 and co-botic 1700 stand out by autonomously carrying out tedious tasks, such as cleaning large floor areas. This smart approach not only minimizes the risk of repetitive strain injuries for cleaners but also enhances the overall cleaning routine, allowing their skills to be used more effectively elsewhere. This solution directly addresses labor shortages while ensuring consistent, high-quality results (which in turn lead to better guest reviews).
Other products that are a great fit for the hotel industry are the i-mop (the i-mop XL can even clean in pool and spa areas), i-remove (for instant gum and stain removal or to clean tile joints) and the i-know kit (prove cleanliness with data).

Sustainability labels: an eco-friendly stay

Eco-friendly certifications improve your reputation and attract a wider audience, as more and more people want to stay in places that match their eco-friendly values. Hotels which reduce waste and choose for energy-saving and water-saving solutions are becoming more successful.
