Powerful Automation Features

Digital Registration Card

The standard issues of any front office are pit checks, slow check-ins with long queues and seemingly endless boxes of filed registration cards. Hotels can now eliminate all these issues and have more efficient check-ins, with minimal errors on guest profiles and at a reduced cost as no pens or paper are required.

Booking and Reservations

A hotel reservation management system is a single source of truth for all of a hotel’s bookings and reservations. The most important feature for a hotel reservation system is that it must be a safe and secure centralized hub where all information related to bookings can be stored and then retrieved on demand when the hotel requires it.

Front Desk

Quick and easy access to key hotel functions such as check-in, check out, room plan, etc. is imperative to an intuitive front desk feature on any PMS (property management system). protel Air has optimised these features with the hotelier in mind.

Billing and Invoicing

Billing and Invoicing systems come in all shapes and sizes and because of the unique challenges one faces in the hospitality industry, it is vital that a tailor-made cashiering system is used alongside the PMS.

Housekeeping

Housekeeping is often hailed as the most vital department and it is important to get your systems working smoothly because the faster those rooms are marked “clean”, the faster they can be sold.

ID and Passport Scanner

The Hotel ID and Passport Scanner for protel AIR speeds up check-in, keeps records accurate, and is really easy to set up and use, no matter what the skill level of your staff.
