Accepted Answer

Mikla offers flexible pricing plans designed for hotels of all sizes, from boutique properties to large chains. Pricing is based on call volume and features needed. Visit our pricing page for current plans and to calculate your potential ROI.

Question 10

Is Mikla better than hiring a dedicated group sales receptionist?

Accepted Answer

Mikla complements your sales team rather than replacing them. Unlike a human receptionist who works limited hours and can only handle one call at a time, Mikla works 24/7, handles unlimited simultaneous inquiries, never takes breaks, and responds in under 1 minute. Your sales team can focus on closing deals while Mikla handles initial qualification.

Question 11

What's the ROI of using AI for hotel group sales?

Accepted Answer

Hotels using Mikla typically see 35-50% more qualified leads captured (by eliminating missed calls and slow responses), 40% increase in site visit bookings, and significant time savings for sales teams. The average group booking is worth $50,000+, so capturing even a few additional leads per month delivers substantial ROI.

Question 12

Does Mikla integrate with Opera PMS or other hotel management systems?

Mikla integrates with major hotel systems including popular CRMs and can export data to Opera and other PMS platforms. All lead information, conversation transcripts, and booking details sync automatically to your existing systems via API or CSV export.

Question 13

Can Mikla respond to RFPs and send proposals automatically?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Mikla can be trained on your RFP response templates and automatically send preliminary proposals, meeting room specs, catering menus, and pricing packages. For complex RFPs requiring custom proposals, Mikla captures all requirements and alerts your sales team with complete details.

Question 14

Can guests tell they're talking to an AI?

Accepted Answer

Mikla uses natural, conversational language that feels human. Many guests don't realize they're interacting with AI. However, we believe in transparency - you can configure Mikla to identify itself as an AI assistant if preferred. The key is that guests get instant, accurate responses rather than waiting hours or days.

Question 15

Is my hotel's data secure with Mikla?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Mikla uses standard security practices including encrypted data transmission, secure cloud storage, and strict access controls. Your guest information and business data are never shared or used for training purposes.

Question 16

How do I stop missing hotel group sales leads?

Accepted Answer

The #1 reason hotels miss group sales leads is slow response time - the average hotel takes 12+ hours to respond to inquiries. Mikla solves this by responding in under 1 minute, 24/7. It captures every call and email, qualifies leads automatically, and books site visits while your competitors are still checking voicemail.
