ACS-line Hotel System covers all the requirements for complete stay of a guest in a hotel or pension and takes care of effective and comfortable hotel operation.
Each guest receives electronic hotel card upon arrival, instead of classic hotel key. This card authorizes and monitors movement of the guest within the hotel and his or her usage of various services. All the information about card usage are processed by the service software and guest's hotel account is accordingly billed. All the permissions of the guest are of course tied with guest's stay in the hotel. If, for example, the guest doesn't return his or her card at the check-out, it is rendered unusable at the check-out moment.
A single card allows
- Entrance to the room
- Control od electric devices in individual room
- Elevator operating
- Access to other places and facilities (parking, wellness, sports, etc.)
- Payment in hotel bars and restaurants
- Usage of other hotel services (equipment rentals, skipasses, etc.)
Final accounting of the card will then provide quick and transparent information about all the consumed services and billing of the guest.
Electronic hotel system provides
- Total accounting of all the services in one bill at the point of guest's departure
- Reservations and planning of the capacities' effectiveness
- Protection of hotel rooms and other spaces from unauthorized access
- Energy savings based on room occupancy
- Employee attendance records
Card is hotel's visit card
Hotel cards are equipped with full color printing, for example with logo, address and picture of the enterprise, serving as a promotion and information card of the accommodation operation. Pools and wellness operations use "wrist watch" instead of cards.
