Casino Guest Room Experience : Wynn & Encore Las Vegas

Wynn Las Vegas modernized their guest room experience with DigiValet signature solution during the floor by floor refurbishment in 2023. With 90% guest using the iPad and Voice activated room experience each night Wynn's leadership in digital hospitality is evident. Swift deployment across 4700+ rooms in six months is an example of the flawless co ordination and project management between the Wynn and DigiValet teams. The DigiValet partnership with the brand goes back to 2019 when Wynn first rolled out the solution in their new Casino in Boston receiving good reviews.

Wynn Las Vegas stands as a pinnacle of luxury and opulence in a city known for its extravagance. Nestled on the iconic Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada, the Wynn complex stretches over 215 acres, offering an unparalleled experience with its 4,748 luxurious rooms and vast 188,786 square feet of gaming space. This monumental resort not only redefines the skyline of Las Vegas but also sets a new benchmark for luxury, entertainment, and hospitality in the heart of the desert.

The New Wynn Guest Experience

The Wynn leadership wanted to introduce the DigiValet into their flagship property in Vegas after being satisfied with DigiValet performance and guest review fom the Encore Boston property. The scale of Vegas property is however very different than Boston. One of the key considerations to formulate a plan to renovate the room experience floor by floor making sure the floor is out of inventory only for 24 hrs. Another good problem to solve was regulating the no of concurrent room service orders for kitchen to be able to serve all the orders without making guests upset. Without the digital platform this was never a challenge.

The Deployment

It was a mammoth task to install the new product in each of 4700+ rooms along with the current hotel being operational. With the Wynn and Digivalet team being ready for the challenge, the deployment of the solution along with Alexa re-programming was done in under 6 months, while the other hotel rooms were operational.

Voice Activated Rooms

With Alexa installed in each Wynn room DigiValet platform was extended to offer voice activated rooms to guests without need for any other voice solution. More than 40% of guests are using Alexa for room and TV controls at Wynn Vegas.

Food & Beverage

DigiValet in room dining feature at Wynn is completely integrated  with Simphony POS. . Allergens, preferences, order notes, and promise delivery time are all sent to Simphony POS from the guest in-room iPad app and printed on KOT for better dining operations. The changes made to the menu by the F&B team are immediately reflected onto the guest room interface.

There are more than 400 orders per day from each of the towers making is one of the most successful and popular feature.To deal with the huge volume of dining orders and to support kitchen during the peak hours DigiValet designed custom workflows. The system can intelligently calculate the estimated delivery time and communicate that to the guests based on the no of orders in the queue. Guests are well informed if there are delays preventing any bad guest experience. Also if one of the tower kitchen is 'out of order' orders can be routed to another kitchen.

Convention Guests

Wynn Las Vegas has been one of the pioneered destinations to host convention guests from around the globe. With DigiValet’s solution the hotel operations team can design the experience of the guests for specific convention in a different way than the standard Wynn experience.

Hotel operations teams can promote specific convention TV channels, send a message publishing the agenda for each day, provide curated menu items and offer specific promotions targeted to the convention guests.

Impact

With the installation of the  DigiValet solution Wynn Vegas has further stamped its leadership in the luxury hospitality. There has been a considerable increase in the use of the DigiValet app for in-room automation controls and also in the no of orders guests are placing digitally.

This has not only shown a significant increase in the In-room dining revenue for both towers but has also helped them to reduce the involvement of full time team members only for order taking.

Conclusion

The collaboration between Wynn Las Vegas and DigiValet showcases a ground-breaking achievement in enhancing guest experiences. The swift and efficient deployment of the DigiValet over 4700 rooms within six months—without hindering the hotel's operations—underscores DigiValet's exceptional capability in executing large-scale technology solutions in the hospitality industry.
