Fistral Beach Hotel and Spa
27th July 2019
As a contemporary hotel in Cornwall, Fistral Beach has 71 cool comfortable rooms and suites, a stylish spa, laid back lounge bar, and vibrant beachside restaurant.
Fistral Beach Hotel is located overlooking Fistral Beach and is the perfect location from which to enjoy jaw-dropping coastal views! Such views are enjoyed from the Dune Restaurant, The Bay Bar and many of the 71 guest bedrooms.
Based on a philosophy of simple sophistication, Fistral Beach Hotel combines chic and contemporary interiors with great service in an informal and relaxed atmosphere.
Fistral Beach features in the Cordé Nast Johansens’ 2019 Guide to Luxury Hotels, Spas and Venues in the UK.
The Fistral Beach App
The team at Philema Hospitality Management, who manages Fistral Beach, Esplanade Hotel and Boringdon Hall, decided to create an individual app for each one of their properties (instead of one group app containing all their properties) to reflect the different brands and the individual character of each property.
The team developed an app for Fistral Beach Hotel and Spa as they wanted to adopt a mobile-friendly solution that would enable them to digitise their guest directory and engage with their guests pre, during and post stay.
The app represents a one-stop-shop for guests to find out all the information they need about the area and what they love the most about the hotel; from Spa treatments, fitness classes and live events, to the mouth-watering and refreshing menus of the Dune Restaurant and the Bay Bar, insiders guides, vouchers, room extras and other hotel services.
The app allows guests to book direct at the hotel, but also to book at the Spa, Restaurant or Bar. Guests can easily message the hotel staff, whether they are in their room or out and about, with any questions they might have as well as for requesting in-room service and ordering extra items.
The hotel app enables the team at Fistral Beach to send very targeted communications to guests through location-based push notifications. A loyalty programme built in the app allows the hotel to work towards converting every guest into a loyal customer.
Testimonial
“We wanted an app to provide a platform to communicate and engage with our guests pre, during and post stay with both information and offers. Criton have provided us with three unique apps matching each of our branding and fulfilling the brief on a quick turnaround.
We are pleased with the front and back end functionality of the app. Independent hotels need to keep exploring different forms of technology to engage with their guests in order to keep up with the big players in the game and Criton offers an affordable way to do this.”
