About Compagnie Hôtelière de Bagatelle
Compagnie Hôtelière de Bagatelle is a French hotel group with six hotels all located in the heart of Paris.

“One of the things I love about Mews is they are always thinking about the future, always improving and introducing new features.”
Improving the guest journey throughout the stay
Challenge
A singular, prescriptive guest journey impacts the guest experience for a large number of guests who would prefer a more autonomous, connected user experience.
Solution
Through Mews Guest Journey, Compagnie Hôtelière de Bagatelle are able to provide guests with a number of options for their guest journey, ensuring their experience is what they prefer. For instance, online check-in and online check-out mean that guests can take care of admin before they arrive or the night before they depart. The group are also trialing the Mews Booking Engine in some properties to make a more cohesive user booking experience. At Vice Versa Hotel, guests can book rooms for day use using a separate booking engine, also through Mews.
Result
• Online check-in is an average of four minutes faster than a traditional reception check-in
• 8% conversion rate for the booking engine at Les Plumes Hotel (3.3% is the industry average)
