What Is a Digital Hotel Compendium?

A digital hotel compendium is a mobile-friendly, web-based replacement for the traditional paper binder found in hotel rooms.

Instead of printed directories that go out of date the moment something changes, a digital compendium gives guests instant access to everything they need including: room information, amenity details, restaurant menus, local recommendations, and hotel policies, all from their own device

Create your hotel compendium now

Absolutely! The digital format allows for efficient communication and reduces unnecessary interactions. Guests can find answers to frequently asked questions independently within the guidebook, and QR codes can be placed around the resort for guests to scan for quick information sharing.

Showcase your hotel or resort's personality and create a memorable first impression. Incorporate your logo, colour scheme, and brand voice throughout the guidebook for a cohesive experience. Highlight nearby attractions, restaurants, or experiences that align with your property's atmosphere and target audience.

A paper room binder is a static, printed directory that sits in the hotel room. It's expensive to produce, difficult to keep current, and often ignored by guests. A digital hotel compendium replaces it with a mobile-friendly, web-based guide that guests access via QR code or link — no app download needed.

It can be updated in real time, translated into multiple languages, and customised to match your hotel's branding. With Touch Stay, you can also track how guests engage with the content, promote upsells, and share the compendium before arrival to build excitement.
