How Hoteliers Can Utilise AI Tools During the Holiday Season

The festive season is the most demanding time of the year for hospitality. Bookings rise, events fill calendars, and every part of the business must operate at its peak. For managers, this means balancing rosters, keeping records compliant, and ensuring every room and facility is guest-ready. 

AI is helping hoteliers meet this challenge head-on. By automating time-consuming tasks and providing data-driven insights, AI supports hotel teams when it matters most, allowing managers to focus on guests instead of admin. 

Here’s how AI in both Alkimii People and Alkimii Property can help your team stay calm, efficient, and ready for the rush this holiday season. 

Smarter Rostering with AI

Creating December rosters is often a balancing act between coverage, cost, and compliance. Traditionally, it can take hours of manual work - but AI Rostering changes that. 

With just a few clicks, AI analyses historical data and business patterns to generate draft rosters in seconds. Managers can choose from three smart options - Best Pay %, Most Efficient, or Same as Last Year - to build a fair, data-informed starting point. 

This not only saves time but also ensures departments are properly staffed for peak service periods. And because managers retain full control, rosters can always be reviewed, adjusted, and approved before publishing.

Keeping Compliance Effortless with AI

As the pace of operations accelerates, paperwork often becomes harder to manage - but compliance can’t take a back seat. Missing right-to-work documents or incomplete profiles can create unnecessary risk during busy times. 

AI Compliance simplifies this by automatically identifying gaps in employee records and generating tailored compliance packs. Managers get clear visibility on what’s missing, while employees receive exactly what they need to complete their profiles. 

It’s a faster, more reliable way to ensure everyone is compliant and ready to work, without manual chasing or delays.

Faster Fixes with AI Maintenance Tasks

When guest turnover is high, even small property issues such as a broken light, a heating fault, a scuffed wall all need quick attention. AI Maintenance Tasks make reporting faster and clearer than ever. 

Instead of writing detailed notes, team members can simply take a photo or record a voice message describing the issue. The AI automatically generates the task title and description, ensuring clarity and consistency for the maintenance team. 

This helps reduce delays, prevent miscommunication, and keep rooms and facilities in top condition - even at full occupancy.
