How it Works
At check-in time, the TouchCheck/Envent Kiosk System reduces check-in time to less than 45 seconds!
The kiosk lets guests identify themselves by swiping a credit card or membership card, or by entering their membership number or a reservation confirmation number and their last name. Guests who are checking in may also make changes to their profile, which includes such information as address and phone number.
Guests may also modify their departure date (based on availability), number of adults and children on the reservations, retrieve messages, change the credit card on the reservation, and obtain keys via a remote key encoder.
The remote key encoder contains a verification process eliminating distribution of faulty keys. In addition, a safety feature has been included to retract a card that is left in the card dispenser in the event that a guest selects multiple keys and accidentally leaves one behind. The check-in process can occur for both pre-reserved rooms and guests who "walk-in" with no pre-booked accommodation. If the hotel is fully booked then NO AVAILABILITY is displayed. The TouchCheck Kiosk System speeds check-out by letting guests add mini-bar items to their bills if items were consumed just prior to check-out.
