Sihot Develops Check-In/Out Kiosk for Hotels

By Ruby J. Adams 3 years ago

(22 Jun 2021)
Sihot, a hotel software application from Gubse AG, has
launched a kiosk for hotels to provide guests with a seamless,
fully digitalised check-in experience.

The new Sihot.Kiosk software, connected to Sihot’s
Property Management System, is accompanied by the Stellar TK-2130,
a modular kiosk system that can be customised to the hotel’s brand
and lobby interior.

The Stellar TK-2130 modular kiosk check-in system can be customised to a hotel’s brand and lobby interior. Click to enlarge.

Sihot.Kiosk features a touch-screen monitor
fitted with an antibacterial nano-coating with bacteriostatic and
sterilising components.

Guests can use their booking confirmation details
including reservation number, GDS or QR codes to complete the data
requirements for check-in registration and confirm the hotel’s
terms and conditions.

Sihot.Kiosk also features an AdriaScan ID
reader for the immediate, automatic transfer of text-data from
personal IDs and passports into the hotel management system.

On
completion of the registration process, the terminal generates a
room key card for the guest.

Hotels can also earn ancillary revenue by offering
upgrade options, presenting the guest with room details including
images and descriptions in various categories, while integrating
other services, like breakfast or hotel transportation.

Carsten Wernet, Executive Board Member at Sihot,
said, “Guests are more digital savvy than ever before, and hotels
need to ensure data is compliant and accessible. We’ve developed
the kiosk system and terminal so hotels can tailor the check-in
experience to each specific property to provide a full brand
experience. We are continuously evolving our platforms to bring
greater efficiencies to hotel operations so staff can focus on
serving their guests rather than fulfilling processes. Hotels can
benefit from our wide range of integrations to connect
applications to elevate the guest experience.”

The terminal has also been built to handle the
check-out process, taking prepayment by credit or debit card,
automatically booked and billed via Sihot.Kiosk with the guest
receiving an invoice to their nominated email address.
