Hotel mystery audits in Singapore

Request a proposal

GDI audits hotels in Singapore with unannounced mystery stays. An inspector stays as an ordinary guest and measures the whole stay against your own brand standards, from the first reservation call to check-out.

Hotel mystery audits in a compact, competitive market

Singapore is a compact city with a dense choice of hotels. Guests, many of them business travellers, can change hotel with little effort, so consistency of service is what holds their loyalty.

A large share of stays are short and demanding: fast check-in, reliable rooms and work facilities, club lounges and early breakfasts. Small failures are noticed quickly.

An independent audit shows how a stay feels to an ordinary guest, against the standards your brand has set, and where teams can improve before guests mention it in a review.

What we check

The audit follows the stay of a business or leisure guest in the city.

Reservation and pre-arrival

Calls and emails, response speed and accuracy.

Arrival and check-in

Welcome, speed of check-in and handling of early arrival.

Rooms and work facilities

Room presentation, connectivity and working space.

Dining and club lounge

Breakfast, restaurants, bars and club or executive lounge.

Requests and housekeeping

How quickly and fully requests are handled.

Check-out

Speed, accuracy of the bill and the final impression.

How it works

Every audit is built around your own brand standards. An inspector with a hospitality background stays unannounced as an ordinary guest, usually for two nights, after your reservation calls and emails have been tested. Each standard is scored met, not met or not applicable, with critical standards marked.

After the audit we hold a debrief with your management team. Outstanding employees are named Star Employees and receive a GDI certificate, and every finding becomes an action plan in our software, which your teams assign, track and close. We match the inspector to your typical guest profile and market, and our inspectors are of 38 nationalities and speak 37 languages.

Singapore audits can be combined with brand standards and SOP development, back-of-house assessments and training. Read more about hotel mystery audits or our global reach.
