Check-in and check-out processes transformed, bringing efficiencies to hotel operations and the guest experience.
Why it matters: First founded in the 19th century, St Brelade's Bay Hotel is a four-star hotel in Jersey, overlooking one of the most beautiful beaches in the Channel Islands. This beachfront property features 77 bedrooms, a state-of-the-art DW Health Club, and stands in 5 acres of stunning gardens.
  • Solutions Implemented: GuestPay and GuestStay

Top 3 Core Objectives: Hotel Challenges/ Requirements
  • Avoid hassles of queueing: During the pandemic, the hotel was looking for ways for guests to enjoy as contact-free stay as possible to protect their safety. They were keen to allow guests to pay from their phones, thus avoiding the hassle of queueing at reception.

  • Modernise the check-out process: They were keen to modernise and streamline the check-out process for the guest.

  • Improve finance processes: The hotel sought to improve finance processes, reduce chargebacks, and generate cost savings.

"The pandemic prompted us to review our guest experience to see where we could add additional safety measures for guests. GuestStay seemed the obvious choice to make check-in as contact-free as possible."
