Tourism & hospitality — PingHere WhatsApp CRM for tourism
The challenge

What tourism struggle with on WhatsApp

Late-night enquiries go cold

A guest in Germany messages at 2 AM Sri Lanka time asking about room rates. By morning they've booked somewhere else.

Language gaps lose guests

Local guests write in Sinhala. Foreign guests write in English. Switching between both manually slows everything down and leads to misunderstandings.

Booking chaos across numbers

Enquiries land on the owner's personal number, the front desk number, and WhatsApp Business — all separate, all untracked. Requests get missed or double-booked.

Common questions

Can PingHere handle availability and pricing automatically?

Yes. You set up your room types, rates, and availability windows. The AI quotes accurately and flags requests that fall outside what's configured — your team handles exceptions, AI handles the volume.

What if a guest writes partly in Sinhala and partly in English?

That's exactly how Sri Lankan guests write, and PingHere handles it naturally. The AI reads code-switched messages and replies in whatever mix feels natural for that conversation.

We have two properties with separate WhatsApp numbers. Can we manage both in one place?

Yes — connect multiple WhatsApp numbers under one PingHere account. All conversations flow into one shared team inbox. Assign enquiries by property, shift, or agent.
