Smarteh hotel automation system
Smarteh hotel automation system unites all hotel automation systems into one common communication and supervision system. Hotel automation and supervision systems are connected with standard wired or wireless network and communicating by using standard network protocols. Beside kitchen, restaurant, office, lobby and other hotel automation systems, Guest Room Management System (GRMS) represents the most extensive one.
Software part of Smarteh hotel automation system is composed of Smarteh Access Manager (SAM) usually located on Personal Computer (PC) in reception and Building Management System (BMS) usually located on PC in maintenance center. SAM can operate in conjunction with BMS or as stand-alone software. SAM software can be upgraded to Smarteh Mobile Manager (SMM) which supports control of the hotel room by guest’s mobile devices.
Smarteh hotel room automation system or more precisely GRMS can also be extended with Self check in kiosk usually located in hotel entrance lobby as supplement for reception staff. There are various possibilities that Smarteh hotel automation system specially GRMS can communicate with any Hotel Management System (HMS).
