The setting up of various strategies necessary for the resumption and maintenance of these activities: the hotel’s post-Covid-19 layout, adapt your hotel to trends and innovation or wait and wait until the storm passes.

Integrating new technologies through products becomes an important issue of tomorrow’s hotel industry.
As a result, it will be necessary to innovate and integrate live-related equipment with hotel rooms that will be themselves connected. We will find elements such as mirror, table or connected light.
Tomorrow’s hotel business must be marked by the setting up of the smart room. It is necessary to move towards the creation of connected hotels thanks to new technologies.
Consumers have taken the habit of looking, comparing and booking their hotel room online. For the recovery, the hotel sector must adapt and highlight the digital used in the hotel.
Wait and wait until the storm passes
The strategy waits and waits for the storm to pass is the least profitable.
It consists of minimizing its expenses, retaining its financial reserve if it exists and using in the meantime all assistance made by the State. All this, hoping that the restarting will be quick and straightforward in the face of competition sometimes reinforced by the first two strategies.
Finally, the Covid-19 paved the way for digital transformation as companies redirected their operations to face closures. For the hotel industry, this crisis must be a key to equipping its hotel, adapting it to trends and innovation, or waiting for the storm to pass.
No matter what strategy you will use, a change is expected at all levels of the economy.
