Shifting focus towards guest satisfaction among hospitality players has impelled the demand for solutions to serve the consumers not only as per their requirements, but also on time, which in turn is stimulating the industry outlook. However, hefty cost associated with the deployment and limited availability of smart hospitality solutions may hamper the market growth over 2020-2026.
Additionally, the unexpected spread of COVID-19 is negatively influencing the growth of global smart hospitality industry since the pandemic has compelled governments to impose travel bans in order to flatten the curve, which in turn has majorly disrupted the tourism sector.
In fact, the World Tourism Organization states that over 96% of tourist destinations across the globe have declared travel restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic as of 6 April 2020, of which up to 90 destinations are partially or completely closed for tourists. This has resulted in the reduction of number of check-ins and other bookings in the hotels, thereby inhibiting the market expansion.
From a regional point of view, North America currently holds a significant share in global smart hospitality market and is expected to grow considerably during the forecast period, primarily driven by the presence of leading companies and rapid technology adoption. Meanwhile, Asia Pacific market is projected to grow substantially over the anticipated timeline, owing to surging disposable income, improving living standards, and rising demand for smart phones in the region.
