It will also help promote the expanding tourism sector in the country abroad, across social networking sites, and locally.
Sherif Sabry, Manager of the hotel, said: “The provision of such service would contribute to the reformation plan of upgrading services provided to citizens locally and internationally, especially with the increasing prevalence of smartphones in the region, and the large adoption by individuals of mobile phone technology in their professional and personal lives.” The app is part of technological development of the hotel which provides iPad-based in-room solution which offers guests customised in-room control such as order from in-room dining, ceiling and wall lights control, curtain operation, room temperature control, access the Internet on iPad and TV, listen to music and radio stations, guest check-in and history clean-up, set pre-arrival requests and access their hotel account. Through the app, users can book rooms and reserve tables in the restaurants in the hotel and delete, add or change information.
Sabry said: “The innovative new app provides enhanced experience for the hotel’s guests, setting new standards in the provision of luxury digital services that fit guests’ needs on a large scale. The app is user-friendly and rich in its advantages. We will continue to develop our products in line with the constantly changing needs of travellers and will continue to provide our staff with what is a real wealth to provide the highest value for the lavish hospitality to our guests.”
