With over 50 years of experience in the tourism sector, Akra Hotels has broken new ground in Türkiye by partnering with WeWALK, the developer of the smart cane, to offer enhanced comfort and ease to visually impaired guests. Through the ‘CONSULT Professional Video Support Service’ created in this collaboration, visually impaired guests can access a free video assistant service anytime they need—from the reservation process through their entire stay.
Akra Hotels, which reflects its deep-rooted knowledge, love and responsibilities to people, nature, history and art, takes accessible tourism one step further for visually impaired guests with the CONSULT service offered through the WeWALK application. With the video service assistant 'CONSULT' service, guests will be able to receive support from assistants specialized in accessibility. For example, they will be able to get detailed information about the facilities free of charge before arriving at the hotel and benefit from this service during the reservation step. In addition, they will be able to receive support on every issue they need on vacation, from reception procedures to floor selection in the elevator, from room air conditioning settings to the description of social areas, to the management of food and beverage orders. Akra Hotels, which has implemented the CONSULT service in all its hotels, including Akra Antalya, Akra V, Akra Kemer, Akra Sorgun, Akra Fethiye and Akra Fethiye The Residence, removes the barriers on vacation by providing a more independent experience for visually impaired guests.
