Summary
When The Peabody asked their legacy software provider about integrating guest messaging into the solution, the provider suggested adding complications by bringing in a separate company – at an extremely high cost – to handle this function. When staff frustration reached its peak, Ryan Lancaster began searching for a replacement solution it was clear that ALICE was the solution for them and they switched to the all-in-one hospitality operations management platform in December of 2020.

The Challenge
Optimizing an Elaborate Service Team System
The Royal Mansour is much more than a palace; it is the incarnation of a vision, a dream, testimony to the fact that the Moroccan way of life is a living art. Built on the solid foundations of tradition, yet constantly evolving, it meets the demands for increasingly high standards in hospitality.
The Royal Mansour features 53 Riads, more commonly described elsewhere as villas. Each riad spans 3 floors - from 1 to 4 bedrooms. Amenities include a private shaded patio, a rooftop terrace with a plunge pool, and a dining area. The quiet service, privacy, and high standards all are supported by an elaborate system of 27 service teams.
Nearly 600 employees work across the resort. The groundbreaking and distinctive hotel design is exemplified by a labyrinthine series of underground tunnels to each riad accessed only by staff.
The ingenious system of underground tunnels allow staff to access the riads swiftly and discreetly, invisibly ensuring guests’ comfort, and taking great care to respect their privacy.
Thus, the art of service at the Royal Mansour reaches a degree of refinement that goes above and beyond the traditional hotelier’s rulebook.
