Embrace the Future of Hospitality: GRMS and Building automation ignite your hotel’s potential
Are you intrigued by the latest technological solutions for the hotel industry? Wondering how software and automation can add value to your hotel? Congratulations, you’ve come to the right place!
Hotel Building Automation and GRMS represent a range of integrated technology solutions designed to streamline hotel processes. These systems enhance guest comfort while reducing costs and workload for hoteliers. In the following section, we’ll delve into the five key benefits hotel automation systems offer.
1. Energy Saving
Reduce Energy Consumption. Simple, direct, and tangible – the first advantage is the reduction in your energy bill. Hotels bear significant energy costs, largely driven by guest room consumption. Lights left on and heating or cooling systems running at full blast throughout the day will no longer be a problem.
However, without intelligent climate control systems, the solutions often lead to guest dissatisfaction, imposing limitations, or additional fees. It can also leave hoteliers burdened with exorbitant energy expenses.
This is where hotel automation comes into play, bringing relief to both guests and hoteliers. An intelligent technological ecosystem adjusts room climate based on occupancy and guest activities, making climate control more efficient.
The result is twofold. Delighted guests experience gradual climate adjustments based on external temperatures, preventing extreme temperature variations. Significant reduction in energy consumption is achieved by limiting climate control when windows are open or guests are out of the room.
Case studies on HCS systems estimate an average energy savings of 35% per room, allowing hoteliers to recoup their investment in approximately three years.
2. Guest-centric Comfort Solutions
Services and automations for a worry-free stay filled with comfort – that’s what hotel automation provides guests.
Real-time feedback enables staff to operate at the highest standards, reduce wait times, and deliver excellent service. At the same time, technology offers numerous conveniences directly to the fortunate guests.
Lighting scenarios, music, aromas, and other automations can welcome guests into their rooms. Bedside consoles for in-room services management enable guests to control the entire room with a single touch. Every door, light, or window becomes an extension of their body.
Customize room automations, access methods, and selected services. Every detail is carefully curated to offer guests a unique stay, transforming the everyday hassles into distant memories. They won’t want to go back to the old way.
3. Safety and Operational Efficiency
Safety for guests and staff. This is another undeniable advantage offered by hotel automation systems. The integrated system of terminals and sensors enables rooms and common areas to share information and communicate in real time, allowing prompt intervention if necessary.
Every access is traceable, identifying who accessed and when. Automatic alerts signal unauthorized entries for increased securities and the system tracks even who shuts the alarm down. Alarms are displayed by the system, which identifies their location and nature, notifying the staff of immediate action.
Enhanced security and shared information enable staff to operate more quickly and with fewer concerns, reducing the risk of unforeseen events.
4. Concessional Financing
The European Union and the global organization have made their choice. They promote and will continue to promote technological advancements in hospitality facilities to transition towards more inclusive, environmentally friendly, and efficient hospitality.
Hotel Automation fully aligns with this new direction. Therefore, automation projects can benefit from facilitated loans or non-repayable funding, such as Industry 4.0 incentives, Building Superbonus, and many others.
