Opening the Cilicia panel to every hotel

Six months ago Cilicia answered one phone — the demo line for Crowne Plaza Englewood. It booked rooms, took payment by link and wrote everything into a panel the front desk could read. Since then we have listened to a lot of calls, rewritten the agent’s manners more than once, and built the pieces a real hotel needs around it: callbacks, complaints, guest profiles, a way for staff to teach the AI in plain sentences.

Today we are opening the panel to every hotel. No waitlist, no integration project. Forward your number, enter your rooms and rates, pick the bundles you want offered — and Cilicia picks up on the second ring.

How to go live

  • Forward your number. Cilicia sits behind the number your guests already know. Nothing on your website or your signage changes.
  • Describe the property. Room types, rates, check-in times, parking, breakfast. The panel asks the questions a new front-desk hire would ask on day one.
  • Choose your bundles. Breakfast, late check-out, a skyline floor. Cilicia offers one — never two — at the moment the guest says yes.

Who this is for

Independent and franchised hotels between fifty and three hundred rooms — the properties where the same person checks a guest in, answers the phone and settles a complaint, often at the same time. If your night shift is one person, Cilicia is the second.

A room is booked only on a clear yes. “Let me think” releases the hold and nothing is charged.

The one rule we will not soften

What it costs

Nothing up front. Cilicia takes ten percent of the revenue it books over the phone — a booking that would otherwise have rung out. Chains and properties with a PMS get a flat monthly plan with OPERA Cloud integration, a multi-property view and a dedicated onboarding.

Call the demo line, book a room in any of eight languages, then watch it land in the panel. Then call us.
