Kayak is getting into the hotel business.  

On Tuesday, the travel booking platform announced that its boutique hotel, Kayak Miami Beach, will be opening in April. 

The 52-room hotel, located in Miami Beach’s Collins Park neighborhood, will be "tech-forward," a press release said. Guests will be able to use Kayak’s mobile app to message hotel staff, unlock their door and request room upgrades, according to the company announcement.

The app will also send guests notifications of events at the hotel and alerts when their rooms are ready.

Kayak Miami Beach -- which is inside a landmarked art-deco building from 1934 -- will also have amenities including hotel bikes and a rooftop pool. The hotel’s on-site Middle Eastern bar and restaurant, Layla, is powered by booking platform OpenTable, according to the release. 

Though Kayak Miami Beach is the platform’s first hotel, Kayak said it would be looking into opening other locations "to help refine its software for different property sizes and types," the release said.
