In a significant development for the hospitality industry, Shiji, a renowned provider of technology solutions, has seamlessly integrated ReviewPro data into its property management system (PMS) dashboards. This integration marks a pivotal step towards enhancing hotel operations and guest services by enabling real-time access to guest satisfaction data and feedback.
ReviewPro, known for its guest intelligence solutions, allows hotels to collect and analyze feedback across various parameters, including hotel chains, individual properties, or specific guest stays. With this data now available directly on the Shiji Enterprise Platform PMS dashboards, hoteliers can significantly streamline their operations.
The integration is primarily aimed at empowering hotel front desk teams. By providing them with instant insights into guest satisfaction, preferences, and feedback, the move is set to revolutionize how hotels interact with their guests. "Empowering hoteliers is at the heart of our mission," said Wietse Bijzeit, Vice President of Shiji Global Solutions Architect. "By integrating ReviewPro’s data into our PMS, we’re revolutionizing hospitality management, arming teams with insights to deliver unparalleled guest experiences."
The initiative not only simplifies operational tasks by consolidating necessary data onto a single platform but also enhances the guest experience from the initial point of contact. This approach helps build loyalty and encourages repeat visits by allowing hotel staff to offer personalized services at check-in and proactively address concerns using detailed feedback analysis.
Recently, Langham Hospitality Group adopted the Shiji Enterprise Platform PMS across its entire hotel portfolio, underscoring the industry's trust in Shiji's solutions. Currently, Shiji serves over 91,000 hotels, 600,000 retail outlets, and 200,000 restaurants worldwide, demonstrating its significant impact on the global hospitality industry.
This integration represents just the beginning of Shiji's efforts to simplify and enhance the way hotel teams operate, promising further innovations in the realm of hospitality technology.

In a landmark initiative to combat the effects of air pollution, Nirvana Being, India’s leading clean air solutions provider, has joined hands with Greenr Café, a popular health-conscious eatery chain, to establish “Pure Air Zones” at its outlets. This collaboration is setting new standards in the hospitality industry by making clean, breathable air a key aspect of the dining experience.
Patrons at Greenr Café’s Greater Kailash and Vasant Vihar locations are greeted by real-time displays of AQI (Air Quality Index), PM2.5, and CO2 levels, both indoors and outdoors. This transparency reflects a firm commitment to environmental accountability and health-focused dining. These safe air zones are made possible through advanced ventilation, filtration, and automation systems installed by Nirvana Being, ensuring patrons can breathe easy while enjoying their meals.
Jai Dhar Gupta, Founder of Nirvana Being, highlighted the importance of this initiative: “As more people experience health complications due to toxic air, there is a growing demand for safe spaces where they can dine and gather without compromising on health. Our collaboration with Greenr Café reflects a shared vision to offer patrons clean air they can trust, setting a new benchmark for health and safety in India’s hospitality sector. Our aim is to inspire other businesses to adopt similar clean air standards, making indoor air quality a priority in all public spaces for the well-being of our communities.”
Echoing this sentiment, Niharika Jain, Founder of Greenr Café, emphasized the role of clean air in holistic wellness: “Air and water are fundamental to human health and existence, and everyone should have the right to access them in their purest form. At Greenr, our aim is to create spaces where people can come together, enjoy wholesome food, and feel their best. With the alarming rise in air pollution, it became equally important for us to ensure our patrons could breathe clean, safe air while they are here.”
This partnership not only enhances the Greenr Café experience but also underscores the importance of creating eco-conscious public spaces. By combining Greenr’s commitment to holistic wellness with Nirvana Being’s expertise in clean air solutions, the initiative is a step towards a future where safe, breathable air becomes a standard in India’s hospitality sector.
Together, Nirvana Being and Greenr Café are inspiring a broader movement towards health-first, environmentally sustainable public spaces, proving that even small steps can lead to significant change.
