Seaview Investors Scales Robot Hospitality Across Every Property
From one robot to eight — how a forward-thinking hotel group turned Relay into a brand-wide competitive advantage.
About
Seaview Investors
A real estate investment management company founded in 2006, Seaview Investors owns and operates eight mid-level hotel properties across the Western U.S. Known for their forward-thinking approach to hospitality, they were among the earliest hotel groups to adopt Relay Service Robots — and the first to roll them out across an entire portfolio.
Challenge
Standing out across eight properties at once
Seaview needed a way to differentiate every hotel in their portfolio, address ongoing labor shortages, and deliver a consistently elevated guest experience — all while managing multiple properties in one of the most competitive hospitality markets in the country.
After the first Relay robot proved an instant hit, Seaview rolled out a named robot to every property — Hannah, Wally, Winnie, Cy, Beverly, Ace, and Rosé. Each handles room deliveries, frees up staff for high-value tasks, and gives guests a reason to post, share, and come back. Even through the pandemic, Seaview kept expanding. What started as a novelty became a necessity.

Testimonial
"When we acquired our most recent hotel, the staff kept asking, 'When are we getting our robot?' What started as a novelty in our first hotel has evolved into a necessity in all of our properties."
— Tiffany Jassel Bevins, Director of Asset Management at Seaview Investors
