Langham Hospitality Group is pushing deeper into the AI space with a suite of new tools designed to expand how guests find information and how its teams work behind the scenes. Announced today, the three-part toolkit is already being phased in across the company’s 31 hotels under The Langham, Cordis, Eaton Workshop, and Ying’nFlo brands.
The launch comes as hotels consider the shifting expectations around immediacy, personalization, and support. LHG’s solution is not to replace existing channels but to broaden them, pairing digital access points with human service and internal systems that can respond faster and more consistently across the portfolio.
At the guest level, the new Experience Agent serves as a multilingual interface that fields questions through everyday channels such as WhatsApp, WeChat, email, and Instagram. It responds in more than 50 languages and is built to handle practical queries quickly, while still routing guests to on-property teams whenever needed. In its next iteration, it’s expected to move toward full concierge functionality with voice capability, stay planning, and proactive updates before and during travel.
Behind the scenes, the Knowledge Agent serves as an always-on reference library for hotel teams. Instead of digging through manuals or waiting for departmental guidance, employees can access housekeeping standards, brand signatures, and operating procedures in real time. The tool will eventually be able to guide colleagues step-by-step through tasks and flag compliance gaps based on role or location, thereby standardizing delivery across markets.
The third tool, the Insight Agent, puts real-time analytics into a more accessible format for commercial teams. By reviewing booking trends, demand signals, and aggregated guest behavior, it surfaces opportunities around timing, audiences, and pricing. Future versions are planned to forecast demand shifts and propose tailored offers or package ideas based on browsing behavior.
The initiative reflects a pattern that dates back to the group’s flagship: The Langham, London, which opened in 1865 with then-radical innovations such as electric lighting and hydraulic lifts. Today’s rollout is pitched as a continuation of that ethos, extending into smart building systems, digital check-in options, and now AI-driven service and commercial tools.
LHG says the goal isn’t to dilute personal service but to meet guests and teams where they already are—increasing access, simplifying decision-making, and raising the ceiling for consistency across a global footprint.c
