With hotels opening around the world, some people are still unsure about the human contact that comes with room service.
But a hotel in California has come up with a genius solution to ensure social distancing is carried out at all times.
Hotel Trio in Healdsburg, California, is home to a robotic butler which caters for the vino needs of guests.
Rosé the Robot does exactly what its name implies – delivers wine to rooms in a totally touch-free manner.
The handy contraption operates totally on its own, navigating hallways, entering lifts and finding rooms without any human interference. It simply alerts passers-by with the digital message which reads: ‘I’m on a guest delivery.’
There’s no doubt the wine is as good as it comes, too, as the town of Healdsburg and the larger Sonoma region are both known for their famous wineries.
Dry Creek Vineyard, Flanagan Winery and Francis Ford Coppola Winery are just a few that are located nearby.
But Rosé the Robot not only delivers wine. It can also carry snacks, extra towels, toiletries – or anything a visitor might need (within reason of course, he’s only a little fella).
As well as the robotic butler, the hotel is also implementing a number of measures to keep both customers and staff safe. Some of these include mandatory masks and sanitation procedures.
In other travel news, the world’s first gold-plated hotel has opened in Vietnam, with 24-carat bathtubs and toilets.
The 25-storey five-star hotel officially opened last week after almost 11 years of construction. It boasts a gold lobby, gold-plated infinity pool, gold-tiled roof and golden lifts.
