GUEST EXPERIENCE
How Hotel Sct. Thomas Transitioned to 24-Hour Check-In with 4SUITES Mobile Key Solutions
Our smart mobile key system has eliminated the need for a night manager on-site for hotel check-ins and nighttime access. In the event of lost access to the email containing the digital key, our system allows for efficient remote management of access rights. This innovation at Hotel Sct. Thomas has greatly streamlined operations, reducing the time and effort associated with traditional check-in procedures. As a result, the hotel staff can now refocus their attention on enhancing the overall guest experience.
Seamless Guest Experience:: Hotel Sct. Thomas's foremost objective was to provide a seamless and hassle-free guest experience. By implementing 4SUITES' cloud-based technology, the hotel aimed to remove the need for app downloads, offer 24-hour check-in, and eliminate check-in queues, all to ensure guests enjoyed a smoother and more efficient stay.
Improving Guest Satisfaction:: Understanding the critical impact of wait times on guest satisfaction, Hotel Sct. Thomas's second objective was to significantly enhance guest satisfaction scores. Research indicated that even a 5-minute wait at check-in could result in a drop of up to 50% in guest satisfaction. By embracing cloud-based IoT technology, the hotel aimed to improve these scores and cater to the preferences of the 70% of consumers willing to stay at hotels offering self-service technology.
Future-Proofing the Hotel:: The third core objective for Hotel Sct. Thomas was to future-proof its operations. By investing in cloud-based solutions and IoT-enabled locks, the hotel sought to stay ahead of industry trends and evolving guest preferences, ensuring it remained competitive and adaptable in the ever-changing hospitality landscape.
"Fast, simple room access, without app downloads, is essential. With cloud-based IoT locks and mobile keys, Hotel Sct. Thomas embraces the future, eliminating queues and increasing guest satisfaction."

Owner Turgut Firat said, about their decision: "We've streamlined our guest check-in process through email credentials, eliminating the need for physical keys. This not only boosts efficiency but also allows for remote access updates, perfect for accommodating upgrades and late check-outs, further enhancing guest convenience."
Efficient Check-In and Room Access: The introduction of 4SUITES' cloud-based mobile key solution has streamlined the check-in process at Hotel Sct. Thomas. Guests can now bypass traditional check-in procedures and access their rooms using their mobile devices, significantly reducing wait times and providing a faster and more convenient check-in experience.
Enhanced Operational Efficiency: The adoption of cloud-based technology and remote access management has led to significant operational enhancements. The hotel can remotely manage access, simplifying room assignments, guest requests, and administrative tasks. The need for on-site staff to address late-hour issues, such as lost keys, has been replaced by the ability to reprogram keys remotely.
Elevated Guest Experience: Remote access management further elevates the guest experience by offering flexibility and control. The team can easily update access rights to accommodate guest preferences, such as room selection and late check-out requests. Hotel Sct. Thomas's commitment to delivering a seamless and innovative experience through these implementations positions them as an industry leader in the competitive hospitality landscape.
