What is Lobby Ready

More Than a Hotel App. A Connected Guest Experience.

Lobby Ready recognizes properties that meet defined technology and guest experience requirements.

Certified properties allow guests to connect to their stay through Lobby Guest, available for iPhone and Android.

Guests scan a property or room QR code, install or open Lobby Guest, and securely connect to their stay. Depending on the property's enabled integrations, guests can:

Available now
  • Hotel information, amenities and operating hours
  • Wi-Fi details and property services
  • Reception messaging and guest service requests
  • Local recommendations and in-room guides
Requires compatible hardware & enabled integrations
  • Control of compatible room lighting and temperature
  • Supported in-room entertainment features

Available features vary by property and are confirmed during the readiness assessment. Additional capabilities are in development and will be introduced as they are verified for each property's infrastructure.

How it works

Four steps from arrival to checkout.

01

Arrive

Guests discover Lobby Ready through signage at reception or inside their rooms.

02

Scan & Connect

Guests scan a QR code to install or open Lobby Guest on their iPhone or Android device and securely associate their stay with the property.

03

Enjoy Your Stay

Guests access available hotel information, services, and compatible smart room features from one app.

04

Check Out

Room-specific access expires when the guest checks out, helping protect guest privacy and prepare the room for the next arrival.

Properties with a connected PMS release access automatically at checkout. Without PMS integration, the property uses a supported manual or scheduled expiration workflow.

A single QR code at reception or in each room connects the guest to the right property and stay — no app store search, no printed welcome book.

Certification requirements

What Does It Take to Become Lobby Ready?

Four requirements are verified at every property before certification is granted.

01

Reliable Room Connectivity

The property must maintain stable internet or suitable local room connectivity to support the required Lobby services. Dedicated guest Wi-Fi is not mandatory if the supported guest experience works securely through another connection method.

02

Lobby Premium — Managed Plan

The property must maintain an active Lobby Premium subscription, including supported device management and remote technical support.

03

Guest-Ready Digital Experience

The property must provide an accurate, maintained Lobby property profile, working QR access points, and a functioning Lobby Guest experience.

04

Secure Guest-to-Room Access

Room-specific functions must use verified guest authorization, appropriate room isolation, and an access-expiration process at checkout.

Certification is subject to a technical readiness assessment and verification by the Lobby team. Available features depend on property infrastructure and supported integrations.

The certification mark

Lobby Ready Certification Badge

Approved properties can display Lobby Ready signage at reception, in guest rooms, and at other guest touchpoints — on window decals, desk cards, in-room placards and digital screens.

The mark pairs the Lobby Ready name with a short promise to guests: Your Stay. Connected.

Lobby Ready is a program designation administered by Lobby Hospitality (MY IT BRAIN, LLC). It is not an independent third-party accreditation, and the mark may only be displayed by properties currently certified by Lobby.
