Brand, website and automation without a front desk

MOTTO Gdańsk

There is no front desk. So what? The guest books, checks in online, receives a code and enters the room. The team still sees the whole process and can respond when needed.

MOTTO GdańskA boutique stay without a front desk.

Location Długie Ogrody, Gdańsk - a few minutes from the Old Town.
Scope A brand built from scratch, visual identity, website, photography and automation setup.
Goal A property operating without a permanent front desk, with self check-in, automatic communication and full remote control.

The front desk as a process

There is no desk. There is a process.

The booking, online check-in, access code and sales document form one sequence. The guest completes it alone but is not left without support.

guest served, team stays in control

What had to be organised here?

Twelve rooms next to the Old Town without a staffed front desk that would consume most of the margin.

Challenge

A new property with zero recognition

A brand built from scratch in a competitive location, without a name, identity or a way to serve guests without a permanent front desk.

Solution

Brand + automation in one project

The name, identity and website were designed alongside the operating system: keypad locks, automatic messages and self check-in.

Outcome

A self-service stay without a permanent front desk

The guest completes online check-in, receives information and an access code, while the team stays in control and responds when the situation requires it.

From the name to the code on the door.

Before the website could be built, the brand needed a name, style and voice that had not existed before.

a process instead of a desk

There is no front desk. Support is still there.

The process must guide the guest clearly from booking to check-out, while the team sees when real intervention is needed.

  • Central booking hub connected to heating so radiators respond to room occupancy.
  • Keypad locks - access without keys or a doorman.
  • Automatic messages and notifications at every stage of the stay.
  • Self check-in - the guest enters independently at any time.

Current status

The MOTTO Gdańsk brand is currently available for acquisition

The project has ended its previous operations and the complete brand, including the name, domain, website and configured automation, is waiting for a new owner.
