Sabre Hospitality Unveils Powerful AI Expansion with SynXis Concierge.AI Integration to Revolutionize Hotel Guest Engagement

Sabre Hospitality is ushering in a new era of digital transformation in the hotel industry with the latest evolution of its SynXis Concierge.AI platform. This groundbreaking update introduces advanced artificial intelligence capabilities directly into the SynXis Booking Engine, enabling real-time, intelligent guest engagement across multiple channels including hotel websites, emails, social media, and voice systems. With this move, Sabre is positioning hotels to not only streamline operations but also dramatically enhance the guest experience and maximize direct booking conversions.

The expanded capabilities mark a major milestone in hospitality tech, offering a comprehensive, AI-driven concierge solution that hotels can deploy at the chain, brand, or property level. This structure provides exceptional scalability while maintaining consistent brand voice and identity across all guest touchpoints.

A Unified AI Ecosystem Tailored for Hospitality

At the core of the innovation is a centralized inbox that integrates all AI-enabled communications, allowing hotel teams to monitor, manage, and analyze guest interactions from a single command center. This centralized approach delivers robust data insights, empowering hoteliers to make smarter decisions and boost performance across digital channels. By consolidating guest interactions into one hub, the platform eliminates operational silos, accelerates response times, and increases efficiency at every level.

Booking Agent Enhances Conversion Rates with Real-Time, AI-Powered Assistance

One of the most exciting features of the upgraded SynXis Concierge.AI is the Booking Agent, an advanced AI chatbot embedded directly into the SynXis Booking Engine. Designed to handle a wide variety of guest interactions, the chatbot provides real-time responses to inquiries, assists with room selection, supports booking processes, answers frequently asked questions, and even delivers local recommendations—all within a seamless conversational interface.

The chatbot communicates fluently in over 50 languages, ensuring global accessibility and localized guest service. With lightning-fast response times and tailored suggestions, this feature helps reduce booking abandonment, increase guest satisfaction, and capture more direct bookings that might otherwise be lost to online travel agencies (OTAs). By offering a smooth, intuitive booking journey, hotels can significantly enhance conversion rates and brand loyalty.

“A year ago, we announced that SynXis Concierge.AI was live and being used by our Customer Care & Delivery team to deliver faster, more accurate assistance, and it was our vision to add AI to other areas of our portfolio in thoughtful ways to move the dial for our customers (hoteliers) and their guests,” said Scott Wison, President, Sabre Hospitality. “We are kicking off early adopter testing of Concierge.AI functionality in SynXis Booking Engine in June and next month, we are putting Concierge.AI at our customers’ fingertips through the Community Portal to enable effortless self-service. This technology is deeply integrated into the booking engine, ensuring a seamless and elevated guest experience.”

Generative Email Automation Eases Staff Workloads and Personalizes Offers

In addition to the AI chatbot, Sabre has integrated Email Automation into its platform, a feature that harnesses the power of generative AI to manage large volumes of guest correspondence. The system automatically extracts critical travel details such as check-in dates, group size, and preferences from incoming emails. It then generates personalized responses and offers that align with the guest’s travel needs, drastically reducing response times and improving operational throughput.

This feature eliminates the manual labor typically required to handle guest emails, allowing hotel staff to focus on high-value tasks. It also ensures that responses are consistent, accurate, and tailored—key factors that influence a guest’s decision to book directly with the hotel.

Social Connect Deepens Brand Engagement Across Popular Platforms

Understanding the importance of meeting guests where they already are, Sabre has rolled out Social Connect, an AI-driven communication layer that extends across major platforms including Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp Business. This enables hotels to maintain an always-on presence across social media, engaging with guests in real time and delivering helpful, brand-consistent responses instantly.

Through the same unified inbox, hotel teams can manage social media queries, monitor guest sentiment, and track emerging trends—all from one streamlined interface. This not only enhances responsiveness but also gives hotels a powerful tool to strengthen their brand identity and build community across digital platforms.

Voice Connect Brings AI to the Front Desk with 24/7 Phone Support

Rounding out the new capabilities is Voice Connect, an AI-powered phone agent that integrates seamlessly into hotel telephone systems. This voice assistant provides 24/7 support for guest inquiries, room bookings, and call transfers. It serves as an around-the-clock virtual front desk agent, capable of answering questions, directing calls, and delivering personalized service without human intervention.

Voice Connect dramatically improves call handling speed and reduces wait times, ensuring that guests receive the assistance they need without delays. The solution also helps hotels operate more efficiently by minimizing the volume of calls that require manual handling, thus saving time and reducing operational costs.

“From the foundation of our flagship property 160 years ago – which was the first hotel to offer air conditioning, hydraulic elevators, and hot and cold running water in guest rooms – pushing the boundaries of what’s possible has always been part of our DNA,” says Langham Hospitality Group Senior Vice President – Strategy, Technology and Innovation Sean Seah. “Sabre’s SynXis Concierge.AI solution greatly enhances our ability to address multilingual queries and booking requests from our guests while preserving the personal and intuitive touch our customer service is renowned for.” 

Amy Read, Vice President of Innovation, Sabre Hospitality, added, “We give hoteliers the tools to meet travelers where they are with efficiency, yet with a human touch. SynXis Concierge.AI helps them scale service, increase conversions, and operate more efficiently – without compromising the guest experience.  What sets these AI tools apart is the ability to combine automation with personalization, giving hotels the control to maintain their brand voice while enhancing efficiency. As we move towards greater personalization, our focus is on delivering best-in-class solutions that empower brands to shape the narrative, not surrender it – blending smart automation with assisted control.”

Delivering Consistency, Control, and Brand Integrity

One of the key advantages of SynXis Concierge.AI is its customizable deployment. Hotels can configure the platform at any operational level—whether globally across chains, regionally by brand, or locally at individual properties. This flexibility gives organizations the power to maintain brand consistency while tailoring responses and features to the unique needs of each location.

As more travelers expect fast, intelligent, and personalized service throughout their booking journey, Sabre Hospitality’s latest innovations ensure that hotels are ready to meet and exceed those expectations. The seamless integration of AI across web, email, social, and voice channels delivers a unified, omnichannel guest experience—backed by powerful analytics and automation.

Redefining the Future of Hotel Technology

With these new capabilities, SynXis Concierge.AI is not just a technological upgrade—it is a transformational tool that reshapes how hotels interact with guests, reduce costs, and compete more effectively in a crowded marketplace. Sabre’s commitment to innovation and guest-centric technology puts its partners in a strong position to lead the hospitality industry into a smarter, more connected future.

By harnessing the power of artificial intelligence and embedding it across every major guest communication channel, Sabre Hospitality is giving hotels the ability to turn every interaction into an opportunity—an opportunity to convert, to delight, and to grow.
