• The size of the hospitality robots market is anticipated to experience a dramatic increase in the forthcoming years. Boasting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 28.9%, the sector will attain a value of $1.96 billion by 2029.
The predicted growth during this forecast period can be credited to the integration of robot automation in the hospitality industry, an increasing global influx of tourists, expansion of the tourism industry, and a reduction in hotel staff numbers. As we look at the key trends in this forecast timeline, we see technological advancements, innovations in robotics, joining of IoT with robots, breakthrough technologies, and the launch of AI-driven solutions.
The advancement of the hospitality robots market is projected to be fueled by the expanding tourism sector. Encompassing all journeying and leisure activities for entertainment, cultural, or commercial reasons, the tourism industry caters to individuals in pursuit of relaxation, cultural discovery, business ventures, and escapism. This demand ultimately contributes to global economic development, cultural exchanges, and personal growth. Hospitality robots are integrated into various areas of the industry, such as customer support, room service, cleaning, and entertainment, improving the quality and efficiency of the services while enhancing guest experiences. For example, as per the datasets and working papers of the France-based online library, OECD iLibrary, the National Travel and Tourism Office of the United States predicted the total number of international visitors to be 77.7 million in 2024, exceed the 2019 figure of 79.4 million by reaching 85.2 million in 2025, 91.1 million in 2026, and 96.8 million in 2028. Therefore, the ascending trend in the tourism sector is a primary factor promoting the growth of the hospitality robots industry.
