Virtual phone number for hotels and hostels: no booking left ringing

A single mobile number for reservations, the front desk and guests, which answers several calls at once even while the receptionist is checking someone in.

Never leave a hotel reservation ringing: a number that answers several calls at once.

Explained simply

Why a virtual number for hotels and hostels?

At a hotel or hostel, the phone rings just when no one has a free hand: at 3 p.m., when guests arrive to check in, or on a Sunday night, when someone is comparing prices for the long weekend. If the line is busy or no one answers, that person simply calls the next hotel on the list. With a 19 80 TIC Cloud virtual number, several people can call at the same time and all of them find the line available, with no busy signal.

A virtual number is a regular +57 3xx mobile number, or a landline in your city, that doesn’t depend on a device or a SIM card sitting in a front desk drawer. Calls can reach the front desk computer, the manager’s mobile or whoever is on the night shift. If you already have a number listed on Booking, Google or your business cards, you bring it over by porting and don’t have to change anything already published.

The hotel can also have a welcome message that says “press 1 for reservations, 2 for the front desk,” WhatsApp messages with the booking confirmation, and a US or Spanish number so foreign travelers can call you at local rates. We’ve provided business telephony since 2010, and today more than 3,000 companies use our lines. The idea is for your hotel to answer like a big one, even if three people run it.

Use cases

What it solves for hotels and hostels

Reservations with no busy line

Several people can call to book at the same time and nobody hears a busy signal, not even during vacations or long weekends.

24-hour front desk in shifts

At night, calls go to the mobile of the receptionist or doorman on duty, without the guest noticing the change.

Guests calling from abroad

With a US or Spanish number, a tourist can call from home to book as if it were a local call.

WhatsApp confirmations

The booking, check-in time, location and directions are sent on WhatsApp from the hotel’s number.

Late-night service with AI

An AI agent answers in the middle of the night, gives rates and takes reservation details for the team to confirm in the morning.

A normal day

Friday before a long weekend

Picture a 20-room boutique hotel in Villa de Leyva. It’s Friday at 4 p.m., the day before a long weekend: the receptionist is checking in a family when three calls come in to the hotel’s number. Before, two of those people would have heard a busy signal. Now the welcome message tells them “press 1 for reservations”; the manager answers one call from his mobile, the assistant takes another from the computer, and the third caller leaves their details and gets the rates and room photos on WhatsApp. No one went looking for another hotel.

We answer your questions

FAQ: hotels and hostels

Can I keep the number already listed on Booking and Google Maps?

Yes. With porting you bring your current number to 19 80 TIC Cloud and it stays the same for your guests. You don’t have to update your profiles or reprint cards.

How many calls can the hotel take at once?

It depends on your plan: from 2 simultaneous calls to hundreds on the same number. A small hostel can start with a few and scale up when high season arrives.

What happens to calls that come in overnight?

You can send them to the on-shift receptionist’s mobile, to voicemail, or to an AI agent that answers, gives basic information and takes details. In the morning the team reviews and confirms.

Can it take calls from tourists from other countries?

Yes. You can have a local number in the United States, Spain, Argentina or more than 90 countries that rings at your front desk in Colombia. Tourists pay for a local call and you answer as usual.

Do I have to buy phones or rewire the hotel?

It’s not required. Calls can be answered on mobiles, on the front desk computer with a headset or on IP phones if you already have them. We’ll help you set up whatever works best for your hotel.
