The proceeds will be utilized to develop cutting-edge AI-driven solutions that streamline operations, boost guest satisfaction, and uncover new revenue opportunities for hotels worldwide, Guestara said in a press release.

Co-founded in 2024 by Akshay Dekate, Kajal Makhija, Neelaksh Gupta, and Rajat Maheshwari, Guestara offers an AI-enabled guest management platform that centralizes and automates key hospitality functions. The company’s solutions span unified inboxes, contactless mobile check-in, omnichannel guest engagement, personalized upselling, and smart checkout – all designed to integrate seamlessly with leading Property Management Systems (PMS).

Guestara transforms guest management into a centralized, intelligent workflow and aims to empower hotels, resorts, and vacation rentals. It harnesses AI to help hotels elevate the guest experience, boosting operational efficiency and enhancing guest loyalty. The company aspires to onboard 2 million rooms globally and transform the sector into a data-driven, people-focused industry.

The Gurugram-based startup claims to have already onboarded hotels and short-term rentals as beta clients, with over 2,000 rooms collectively, including three global hotel chains. These clients have reported a 20% increase in operational efficiency, a 35% rise in guest satisfaction, and a 57% boost in incremental revenue.

Guestara plans to expand its reach and targets a diverse range of hotel partners, from boutique independents to multinational chains. By doing so, the company aims to set a new standard in guest management, blending technology with genuine hospitality to deliver truly exceptional stays.
