NATIONAL REPORT—Technology is an integral part of running a hotel. Here’s a look at some of the solutions providers that hotel companies have chosen to team up with recently.
Luxe Hotels
For two of its Los Angeles properties, Luxe Hotels will offer mobile payment through two providers. Via a partnership with Citcon, the Silicon Valley, CA-based cross-border mobile payment solution provider, guests at Luxe Rodeo Drive Hotel and Luxe Sunset Boulevard Hotel will be able to pay with Alipay and WeChat Pay.
Accounting for 90% of the total market share and 70% of the total Chinese population, Alipay and WeChat Pay are the most popular mobile payment solutions for Chinese travelers.
