Impact on Bookings and Event Sales
Hotels implementing virtual walkthroughs report measurable business improvements: 35-45% increase in direct booking conversion rates, 40-50% reduction in event sales site visits as planners pre-qualify spaces virtually, higher average booking values as guests confidently select premium rooms, and accelerated event booking cycles through comprehensive venue visualization. ROI typically achieves within 12-18 months through increased direct bookings and OTA commission savings.

This phased approach demonstrates value while managing initial investment.
