For PCH Hotels & Resorts, Loyalty & Longevity Win

For more than 20 years, PCH Hotels & Resorts, a Mobile, Ala.-based hotel management and development company, relied on Aptech for back-office accounting. When the company learned that its existing software was being phased out and replaced by Aptech’s next generation enterprise accounting solution, PVNG, the corporate finance team had some big decisions to make. Do they remain with Aptech, a company that PCH President Tony Davis has been familiar with and successfully using for more than 35 years across his hospitality career, or do they move on and try something new?

Fairfield by Marriott Hotel Chooses Guesthub to Manage and Track Parcels

Scalable technology is important to hoteliers today, especially those operating smaller properties with reduced staff. Guesthub, a web-based guest experience management solution, is proof that modularity is key to technology adoption. Such is the case at Fairfield by Marriott® Inn & Suites Miami Airport in West Doral, Fla. Today the midscale hotel is leveraging Guesthub solely for package tracking. Although the mobile solution can facilitate many other features, like handling guest requests, respond to issues, provide information on amenities, support food and beverage ordering, schedule/track courtesy shuttle requests, and more, the hotel selected just the “guest parcel tracking” module to better manage this service, which is not covered by Marriott’s current proprietary apps and technology.
