Sound familiar?

Mishandled inquiries and lost revenue

Inquiries managed with cluttered inboxes or voicemail get picked up by the wrong person, or aren't picked up at all. By the time the right person follows up, the booking is lost.

Prolonged sales cycles and repetitive admin

Teams get bogged down in back-and-forth with the wrong prospects while qualified leads slip the cracks. The result is frustrated staff, missed bookings, and disappointed guests.

Decisions without data

Reporting is manual, slow, and often incomplete. Without a clear view of revenue, bookings, and workflows across locations, problems go unnoticed and opportunities to improve are missed.

What Paloma delivers

Answer guest questions and collect event details in real time, 24/7

Your booking widget thinks on its feet, responding to commonly asked questions instantly and collecting all the primary details your team needs, so every inquiry arrives complete and ready to close, day or night.

Show guests only what's relevant to their event

Guests see only the options that apply to their event type and size, and can browse your spaces directly in the widget, so every inquiry your team receives is informed, complete, and ready to close.

Offer real-time availability, with waitlisting for unavailable dates

Guests see exactly what dates are open and can request their preferred date instantly. If a date is booked or not yet available, they join a waitlist automatically, giving your team a ready pipeline of future bookings.

Keep event details in one place

Every detail, change, and note lives in a single workflow using existing email and calendar. The moment an inquiry is submitted, your team and your guest receive a complete summary. No new tools, no time-consuming training.

Track every conversion and event status automatically

Monitor inquiry volume, conversion rates, and revenue trends across one location or many, so your focus shifts from individual transactions to building a successful private events programme.

Loved & trusted

Working with Paloma for our group reservations completely transformed how we handle events at our restaurants. The platform streamlined our entire workflow— no more endless back-and-forth emails or phone tag with guests. Paloma didn’t just make our jobs easier—it genuinely elevated the guest experience and helped us create more memorable events and increase revenue.  Bob and Ania are intuitive, kind, helpful and extremely easy to work with. You will not regret choosing Paloma to take great care of your guests.
Using the Paloma Intake widget has been really effective in increasing the number of requests we get by having a dedicated presence on our website. All the info now comes to me in a clear and concise manner, with all the relevant details needed to make it very easy to respond quickly and effectively. The Q&A section provides great information and gentle education for the person inquiring. Even before I get involved, they can decide for themselves if we are the right fit for them.
The Paloma Widget has been a real game-changer for our event bookings at Union. It simplifies our event booking process, answers questions for our guests, and gives us exactly what we need without the back-and-forth with phone or email communication. We can focus more on creating great experiences and less on admin. Paloma has increased our events business year over year by 75%, and decreased our time to booking by 80%. For any venue looking to expedite their event process without losing that personal touch, I’d definitely recommend giving Paloma a shot.”
Our team was looking for a way to streamline the inquiry process but we were not willing to compromise on the curated, relational experience we strive to offer each guest. Paloma has been the perfect solution.
