Does an independent hotel need digital tips? Isn’t it time-consuming, expensive, and confusing for both guests and staff?
Making tipping hassle-free for businesses is fantastic for the owners, and the best news is that it’s 100% free. Businesses can save time and money and motivate their employees while also ensuring a smooth staying experience for their guests: another advantage for the agile and flexible independent hotels over hotel chains.
Independent hotels have a unique identity. Owners focus on personalizing the experience of guests; they are more willing to adapt and have the freedom to be creative and innovative. And people love it. According to a 2017 study from Expedia, independent hotels had greater overall average daily rate and faster growth than their branded counterparts.

As today's travelers gravitate toward unique lodging accommodations, the boutique hotel scene is thriving. Management can focus on improving the performance of hotels more effectively than a franchise. They are free to adopt any type of innovation in their hotels. So while chain hotels take their time contemplating the move, owners of indie hotels can go ahead and start using a digital tip solution, such as iTips.
