Chinese internet giant Alibaba last Tuesday opened a hotel loaded with artificial intelligence (AI) and robots, automating a series of procedures like check-in, lights' control and room service.
國內互聯網巨頭阿里巴巴旗下的一家酒店與上週二開門迎客，該酒店隨處可見人工智能和機器人，可使辦理入住、燈光調控和房間服務等一系列流程實現自動化。

The FlyZoo Hotel opened in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, where Alibaba is headquartered and is known as the company's first "future hotel".
“菲住布渴”酒店開在阿里巴巴總部所在地浙江省杭州市，被稱爲該公司的首家“未來酒店”。

Customers can check into the hotel by simply scanning their faces. The facial recognition system installed in the hotel also enables customers to use their faces as key cards to open doors and access other hotel services.
顧客只需“刷臉”即可辦理入住。酒店裏安裝的臉部識別系統還能讓顧客用自己的臉當鑰匙卡，來開門和使用其他酒店服務。

Users also can control the lights, television and curtains in the room via Alibaba's voice-activated digital assistant, while robots are deployed to serve dishes, cocktails and coffee.
此外，顧客還可以通過阿里巴巴的聲控數字助理控制房間內的燈光、電視和窗簾，酒店還派機器人送餐、提供雞尾酒和咖啡。

"The AI-based solution can help customers save time and relieve hotel employees from repetitive work," said Wang Qun, CEO of FlyZoo Hotel.
