Protel Hotelsoftware GmbH wiwih

Sleep like a rock star. Since April 2009, the design hotel Sanctum Soho situated in London´s buzzing neighbourhood Soho leaves nothing to be desired by musicians, artists and other bohemians. The British TV channel BBC shot a documentary following the construction of the Sanctum Soho, London's first rock ´n´ roll-themed boutique hotel. Co-starring: Hotel management software by Dortmund´s protel hotelsoftware GmbH.

A roof-top garden lounge and bar with its own alfresco hydro spa and 24-hour guitar & amplification hire and servicing are only some of London´s first rock ´n´ roll hotel amenities. Since April 2009 The Sanctum Soho attracts celebrities, rock stars and ordinary people who´d love to be one. The CEO and owner of Sanctum Soho hotel, Mark Fuller, nightclub owner and rock band manager, succeeded to pay homage to Soho´s history as a hubbub of artistic and bohemian life with his 30 room boutique hotel: Glamorously and eccentrically designed, the hotel and its team focus on their guests and aim to fulfil all wishes for even the most discerning of guests. The staff at Sanctum Soho Hotel can pretty much get you anything you want, anytime, day or night, from a private security escort to a Nike shoe menu for the athletic rock stars or frivolous gift sets with scented candles and lingerie.

Hotel owner Mark Fuller´s background and the abundance of ideas around the construction of this new boutique hotel was enough to fill a three episode BBC documentary which aired in Britain in late August. The camera team followed Fuller and his architect, designer and contractors during the construction of this rock star hotel and caught a glimpse of an important co-actor: The hotel management software from protel in action at the front office. After extensive research and comparison of the leading property management solutions, in February, protel was selected, primarily for its rate management, marketing and distribution connectivity features.

The excellent reputation of protel partner Xn Hotel System for reliability, support and service also played a decisive role in choosing protel. Owner Mark Fuller comments: "Sanctum Soho is the culmination of two years planning and an investment of just under £10 million. An unfaltering level of service that goes beyond convention and expectations will be at the heart of our operation and therefore we carefully choose our partners to facilitate this." The hotel is the second UK member of Design Hotels to choose protel in recent months. The Vincent Hotel in Southport opened its doors in June 2008.
