Usually, when a guest arrives at the hotel, they need to spend some time at the front desk sharing and verifying ID proofs, signing check-in documents, etc.
Now the ‘Goibibo Contactless or Paperless Check-in’ feature will cut down this waiting time at the concierge and guests can head straight to their room to relax.
Goibibo’s bookers and non-bookers can make the most of the ‘Contactless Check-in’ offering available on the app.
How Goibibo contactless check-in works :
Goibibo Bookers :
Step 1: Bookers can now submit ID proofs and other validation documents online, after making the payment or via the My Trips – upcoming trip section on the app.
Step 2: Once the documents are submitted, the hotelier verifies and approves or rejects the documents
Step 3: If the hotelier approves the identity information, the guest will be able to check-in by sharing her/his contact number or booking ID at the front desk and avoiding the tedious process of verifying ID proofs.
Goibibo Non-Bookers :
These are the travelers who make impromptu plans and directly reach the hotel.
Step 1: Open Goibibo’s app and click on the ‘Scan & Go Contactless’ icon.
Step 2: Travellers can upload soft copies of the documents on the app after scanning the QR code and wait for the hotelier to approve the documents.
Step 3: Once the document is approved, the traveler can proceed to her/his room.
