V1 Net Allows Check-In Over the Internet

FREDERICK, MD (USA) – September 28, 2006 – Visual One Systems has added a guest-friendly feature to speed-up the check-in process at hotels and to decrease labor requirements at a hotel’s front desk: advanced check-in over the Internet.

V1Net is Visual One’s browser-based property management software and is designed to operate over the Internet (but can also be hosted “locally” at your hotel).  Check-in over the ‘net allows guests to confirm their sleeping room reservation, confirm a payment method, and choose a room via the hotel’s web site.  The guest can print a check-in voucher on their printer and, upon arriving at the hotel, can merely exchange the voucher for a room key.

Visual One Systems is currently in discussions with lock vendors so that guests can bypass the front desk entirely and merely use their credit card as the room key.  The credit card would have to be the same card that was used in the check-in process.
