Optimizing Restaurant Operations: HolaBot’s Return Tray Feature at Cottonina Hotel
The Cottonina Hotel & Mineral SPA Resort employs Pudu Robotics’ HolaBot to enhance dining room efficiency and guest interaction. After a successful trial period, the hotel permanently integrated HolaBot, leveraging its impressive carrying capacity and autonomy to alleviate staff workload and improve service delivery.
Situated in the scenic region of Świeradów Zdrój, the Cottonina Hotel & Mineral SPA Resort strives to provide exceptional guest experiences by blending modern convenience with hospitality. The hotel operates a bustling restaurant, making it essential to streamline operations while ensuring guest satisfaction.

Prior to adopting HolaBot, the hotel staff faced significant challenges related to the timely and efficient delivery of dirty dishes and serving large groups. The manual handling of heavy loads not only burdened the staff but also posed potential health risks due to repetitive strain on their hands and backs.

After a month-long trial, the Cottonina Hotel integrated the HolaBot into their daily operations. With a remarkable carrying capacity of 60kg and four large trays, HolaBot effectively collects and deliverts dishes from the dining area to the washing station. The robot’s ability to autonomously navigate the restaurant through mapping software also enables it to deliver directly to tables and communicate with guests using pre-recorded voice messages.

Since the implementation of HolaBot, the hotel has witnessed a significant reduction in the physical workload on staff, improving their health and job satisfaction. The robot’s efficiency in serving larger groups—accommodating up to 12 diners simultaneously—has not only sped up service turnover but also enhanced guest experience. Guests enjoy engaging with the robot, further promoting a memorable dining atmosphere.
