London, UK – June 2025 : UK-based hospitality technology company Inntelo AI has announced the formation of its global advisory board, comprising renowned hospitality leaders from the UK, Europe, North America, and the Middle East.
Inntelo AI has developed a conversational and agentic AI tool for hotels. Its AI Concierge works alongside hotel teams to enhance guest experiences and streamline daily operations. Guests can easily access concierge services and resolve any issues via WhatsApp and phone calls, which are initially answered by an AI agent available 24/7 in multiple languages, ensuring seamless and consistent support. Tasks are then automatically assigned to staff, and the hotel teams are coordinated to improve speed and reduce friction in daily operations.
The company’s new board brings together senior operators, developers, academics, and technologists with experience across global brands such as Accor, Fairmont, Hilton, Wyndham, and Choice Hotels. Their insights will guide Inntelo AI’s ongoing product development and expansion.
The news follows a string of new clients using Inntelo AI, including hotels in the UK, Portugal, and Dubai.
Asif Alidina, Co-Founder and CEO of Inntelo AI, said: “AI is entering almost every sector with incredible speed, unlocking new efficiencies and business models across the board. In hospitality, it’s critical that this transformation is guided by those who understand the industry inside and out. Too often, solutions are built without deep operational context. At Inntelo AI, we’re taking a different approach, partnering with world-class hospitality leaders to ensure AI enhances both the guest experience and the working lives of hotel teams, without losing the human touch that defines our industry.
“I’m incredibly excited to have these highly respected leaders shaping our strategy. Their insights have already made a powerful impact, and I can’t wait to share the results of their contribution as we grow globally.”

● Tariq Valani, UAE: Former SVP at Accor, with global leadership experience at Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, and a Global Board Director at HFTP, the organisers of HITEC.
● Mary Doogan, UK: A strategic advisor to hotel owners with over 20 years’ experience managing portfolios in the London luxury market.
