Hello! I’m trying to use home assistant in hotels and little bed & breakfasts with voice assistants. We’d like to use Alexa using Nabu Casa but I am wondering if the skill supports the Alexa for Smart Properties (a way to use Alexa in hotels and public places). Is there someone who already faced this? Thank you
I wouldn’t rely on Alexa for that. There have already been rumors that Amazon is planning a subscription model for it. Also, the recognition quality on the Echo devices seems to have gotten significantly worse within the last year. I’m really hoping that HA Voice hardware will be available soon. This would make things much easier to implement and would even work without Cloud/Nabu Casa.
The question is: What do you want to use it for? For yourself/personal or for guests?
For guests, many might not be able to understand it… and if you have foreign guests, it becomes even more difficult. I would primarily focus on a good dashboard on a tablet and perhaps add voice control for 2-3 simple functions (lights on/off, TV on/off).
