What does Guest Hub keep together?
Guest Hub keeps an individual pre-arrival check-in record, its staff review, portal conversation, stay-service requests, and a derived journey view in one hotel workspace. It is organized around the current check-in record rather than a deduplicated lifetime guest profile.
Does Guest Hub replace or synchronize with the PMS?
No. Staff create the current Guest Hub invitations manually. The PMS remains the system of record for reservations, rates, folios, and core room inventory; Guest Hub manages the hotel’s check-in review, stay portal, conversations, and requests beside it.
Which guest messaging channels are in the staff workspace?
Guest Hub supports two-way human messaging through the stay portal. Staff can also send an outbound SMS when the property’s messaging setup is available. Email and SMS can deliver invitations, but guest email conversations and inbound SMS replies do not join the portal thread.
How do stay-service requests reach the operating team?
Guests can submit housekeeping, maintenance, lost-item, offer, or special requests. Staff review each request and can acknowledge, complete, decline, or resolve it. When appropriate, a staff member deliberately creates a maintenance work order, Lost & Found report, or housekeeping room assignment; Guest Hub does not route or complete that work automatically.
What can a guest see in the stay portal?
An eligible guest can open a branded portal with Stay, Services, and Messages sections, hotel details, FAQs, offers, request history, and front-desk messages. Room and Wi-Fi details appear only after staff records the guest as checked in. Tipping and connected messaging options depend on the property’s setup.
Does Haven answer guests or approve check-ins automatically?
No. In Guest Hub, Haven can draft portal welcome copy and a proposed policy for staff review. Staff still review check-in submissions, reply to portal messages, decide request follow-through, and control what is saved. The separate AI Concierge has its own workflow and availability requirements.
Can managers export Guest Hub activity?
For an individual submitted, verified, or checked-in record, staff can open a registration card and print or save it as PDF through the browser. Guest Hub does not provide a bulk guest, conversation, request, or analytics export from this workspace.
