Sabre Hospitality unveils AI integration with SynXis Booking Engine

Sabre Hospitality announced the latest enhancements  to SynXis Concierge.AI, extending AI capabilities to the SynXis Booking Engine. This integration  provides instant, intelligent responses across key guest-facing hotel channels – including websites, email, social platforms, and voice. Concierge.AI is managed and monitored through a unified inbox  that delivers powerful insights to drive conversions, increase website engagement, and streamline  operations – saving both time and cost. Hotels can configure the solution at chain, brand, or  property level, ensuring consistency and control across their portfolio. “A year ago, we launched SynXis Concierge.AI within our Customer Care & Delivery team to provide  faster, more accurate support. At the time, we said our goal was to thoughtfully expand AI across  our portfolio to truly move the needle for hoteliers and their guests,” said Scott Wilson, President,  Sabre Hospitality. “We’re now beginning early adopter testing of Concierge.AI within the SynXis  Booking Engine this June, and next month, we’ll make it available via the Community Portal – placing this capability directly in our customers’ hands. With deep integration into the booking  engine, this delivers a seamless, elevated guest experience.” Key new features of SynXis Concierge.AI include: ▪ Booking Agent – An AI-driven chatbot embedded within SynXis Booking Engine that handles  real-time queries, room recommendations, booking support, FAQs, and local suggestions.  Available in over 50 languages, it delivers quick, personalised responses that increase  conversion rates, reduce booking abandonment, and capture direct bookings that might  otherwise go to OTAs. ▪ Email Automation – Uses generative AI to process large volumes of guest emails by extracting  key travel information (such as travel dates or party size) and generating personalised offers.  This boosts response speed, booking efficiency, and eases staff workload. ▪ Social Connect – Facilitates AI-powered guest engagement across major social platforms  including Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp Business. Managed via a single  inbox, it enables consistent brand messaging and provides valuable insights into guest  sentiment and emerging trends. ▪ Voice Connect – Integrates an AI phone agent into hotel telephone systems, offering 24/7  support for enquiries, bookings, and call transfers. This increases operational efficiency while  providing personalised service over the phone. “Since opening our flagship property 160 years ago – the first hotel to feature air conditioning,  hydraulic lifts, and hot and cold running water in guest rooms – innovation has always been at the heart of our approach,” said Sean Seah, Senior Vice President – Strategy, Technology and  Innovation, Langham Hospitality Group. “Sabre’s SynXis Concierge.AI solution significantly  enhances our ability to respond to multilingual guest enquiries and booking requests, while  preserving the intuitive, human touch that defines our service.” Amy Read, Vice President of Innovation at Sabre Hospitality, added: “We equip hoteliers with tools  to engage travellers with speed, yet always with a human feel. SynXis Concierge.AI enables them  to scale service, increase conversion, and operate more efficiently – all without compromising the  guest experience. What differentiates these tools is their capacity to merge automation with  personalisation, empowering hotels to retain their unique brand voice while enhancing efficiency.  As personalisation deepens, we remain focused on delivering solutions that allow brands to lead  the narrative – blending intelligent automation with controlled support.”
