How much does AI cost for a hotel or restaurant in Dubai?
For most Dubai hotels, restaurants and holiday-home operators, AI starts with one Custom ChatGPT Skill for a single job, such as replying to guest reviews in your voice, and then moves to a fixed-price START, GROW or RUN package for the wider team. These are one-time implementation fees, not per-room licences. Your PMS, booking engine and POS stay as they are; the only new ongoing cost is ChatGPT, paid to OpenAI.
The short answer
| Level | Price | Typical hospitality scope |
|---|---|---|
| Custom Skill | AED 97 | One job: review reply writer, guest message writer or allergen answer desk. 30-day refund. |
| START | AED 3,500 | GM and front office: review replies, guest messages, complaint replies. |
| GROW | AED 7,500 | Front office, F&B and sales: adds allergen answers, group proposals, SOP training and team training. |
| RUN | AED 15,000 | Several outlets or properties: adds GM’s daily brief, holiday-home guides, approvals and access rules. |

Why it costs less than you might expect
Hospitality software is usually priced per room or per outlet every month. A ChatGPT implementation is a one-time setup of your own standards, voice, menus and SOPs into reusable Skills, so your team writes better replies and documents faster with the tools it already has.
What changes the price
- Number of jobs: one is a Skill; reviews plus messages plus complaints is START.
- Departments: front office, F&B and sales together suit GROW.
- Properties and outlets: several need access rules and a shared brief, which is RUN.
- Languages: each guest language needs a tone guide.
What is not included
- Your ChatGPT subscription, paid to OpenAI
- PMS, channel manager or POS changes
- Food-safety certification. Allergen answers rely on your verified matrix
