Voice AI enters hotel operations workflow

Hotel operations software provider Quore and cloud communications company VSR have integrated their platforms to enable voice-based request management across hotel departments. The partnership connects VSR's VAIA conversational AI assistant with Quore's operations orchestration system, allowing guests and staff to submit and track service requests through natural voice interactions.

The integration launched at the Holiday Inn Resort Kissimmee by the Parks in Orlando, operated by AD1 Hospitality. According to Jon McMillian, VP of Marketing and eCommerce for AD1 Hospitality, the system automatically routes guest requests into Quore's platform, reducing manual data entry and improving cross-department coordination.

How the system works

VAIA processes voice interactions from mobile phones, guestroom phones, or hotel extensions in 26 languages. When a guest calls to request extra towels, report a maintenance issue, or schedule housekeeping, the AI system interprets the request, categorizes it by type, and routes it to the appropriate department through Quore's workflow platform.

The same capability extends to hotel staff, who can create work orders, log complaints, or assign tasks through voice commands rather than manual ticket entry. The system uses keyword recognition and contextual analysis to map conversations to specific ticket types and departmental workflows.

Richard Bradbury, Vice President of Product for Quore, said the companies are monitoring ticket quality during the pilot phase to refine how requests are interpreted and routed. The goal is to reduce manual intake processes while maintaining accuracy in how information reaches hotel teams.

Why it matters

Hotels face persistent labor challenges and rising guest expectations for rapid service response. Voice-based automation addresses both pressures by eliminating manual request logging—a time-consuming task that pulls staff away from direct guest interaction. The multilingual capability is particularly significant for properties serving international travelers, where language barriers can slow service delivery. By creating an auditable trail of every request through the operations system, hotels also gain visibility into response times and service patterns that can inform staffing and training decisions.

Deployment and availability

The integration supports voice requests from guestrooms, public areas, and administrative phone extensions. Quore currently serves over 7,400 hotels worldwide, including properties under IHG, Marriott, and Choice brands. VSR provides cloud communications infrastructure to hotels globally.

Mark Cederloff, CEO of VSR, characterized the integration as connecting guest communications directly to operational execution, enabling faster response times and greater management visibility into performance metrics.

Both companies plan to demonstrate the integration at HITEC San Antonio 2026, scheduled for June 16-18 at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center. A demonstration video is available at https://youtu.be/0l6PlCzQAhc.

These details were first reported by Hospitality Net in a June 11, 2026 announcement.
