Chris May, Owner and Lead Technology ConsultantThat disconnect is what inspired the creation of HotelTechConsultant.com, recognized as Top Hotel Technology Consultant and Provider of Hotel Technology Solutions for 2025.
They act as a strategic bridge between tech providers and hotel operators, helping startups gain visibility in a relationship-driven industry. By connecting hoteliers with innovative solutions that they may never have discovered otherwise, HotelTechConsultant.com enables them to streamline operations and enhance guest experiences. For hotel technology companies, rather than forcing startups to bear high sales and marketing costs, it offers a cost-effective, results-driven approach.
“We give hotel tech innovators an affordable way to break into the market, while hotels gain first access to best-in-class solutions they might not have heard of without us. It’s a win-win for the industry, fueling innovation on one side and smarter adoption on the other,” says Chris May, owner and lead technology consultant.
HotelTechConsultant.com has helped hundreds of hotels implement innovative solutions across three main categories; technologies that drive direct booking or ancillary revenue, streamline operations and improve guest and staff experience.
Take, hotels that want to gain revenue from their extra parking spaces, HotelTechConsultant.com introduces Ocra, a parking management platform that transforms underused lots into steady income. While many hotels recognize the potential, the complexity of selling spaces across multiple apps often holds them back. Ocra’s software and CoPilot service cut 99 percent of the manual workload, allowing hotels to sell spaces seamlessly to non-guests, locals and event visitors, turning parking into a true profit center with minimal effort.
When it comes to streamlining shuttle operations, HotelTechConsultant.com brings TrackMyShuttle, a real-time shuttle tracking platform built for properties offering guest transportation. Shuttle service is often a source of friction; guests grow frustrated waiting without clear information, while front desk staff spend countless minutes fielding repeated calls about arrival times. TrackMyShuttle resolves both issues by displaying live vehicle locations and accurate arrival estimates. Guests gain confidence knowing exactly when their ride will arrive, the front desk is freed from constant interruptions, and shuttle operations run more smoothly overall.

In order to make hotels safer for both guests and staff, HotelTechConsultant.com presents Guest Ban, an ID verification and hotel safety technology designed for the hospitality industry. Fraud, chargebacks and disruptive visitors create risks that drain resources and undermine the safety of the hotel. Guest Ban integrates ID verification directly into the check-in process, instantly authenticating documents and flagging the hotel’s banned guests and other potential guest security risks.
These three examples are only a glimpse. HotelTechConsultant.com works with a wide range of tech partners to meet hotels’ evolving needs, whether adding EV charging with Stay-N-Charge or ProSafe for staff well-being.
Every technology in its portfolio goes through a careful vetting process before reaching hoteliers. Product readiness, market fit, and potential impact are thoroughly assessed, with the team investing time to understand each vendor’s strengths. Only once a solution proves its value is it matched with hotels that will benefit most, ensuring decision-makers engage only with technology that delivers real results.
That ability to evaluate and connect the right solutions is rooted in May’s own journey in travel and hospitality. Having spent years working in the hospitality industry in various leadership roles, he worked closely with hotel leaders for years. Those experiences, and the relationships built along the way, became the foundation for HotelTechConsultant.com. Today, May draws on that knowledge to understand hoteliers’ challenges firsthand and guide them toward innovations that make a lasting impact.
In every case, HotelTechConsultant.com acts less like a tech vendor and more like a trusted advisor, helping hoteliers cut through the noise of the marketplace and adopt innovations with confidence.
This is why they have been awarded Top Hotel Technology Consultant and Provider of Hotel Technology Solutions for 2025.
