Greetings, hospitality pros 🌟 

We have some exciting news that’s going to help you meet the growing expectations of the modern guest: Mews Digital Key is now compatible with Salto Space door locks 🎉 

 

Unlock the magic of keyless entry 

 

Once considered a luxury feature, keyless room entry is becoming a standard of the hotel experience. Modern guests expect ever greater levels of control over their stay, including contactless options via their mobile device, which Mews Digital Key fulfills. 

And now, properties with Salto Space door locks can experience the benefits of our industry-leading technology. 

As well as enabling hoteliers to meet ever-growing guest expectations, it also offers significant operational efficiencies, like removing friction at check-in to save front desk staff valuable time. Let’s take a look at some of these benefits: 

 

🚀 Seamless guest experience. Guests can access their room as soon as they arrive, skipping the check-in queue. And they don't need to worry about losing their room key. 

🔐 Enhanced security. With Digital Key, lost or stolen room keycards are no longer a security risk. Plus, keys can only be shared with guests named on the reservation. 

⌛️ Save staff time. Fewer guests need help with malfunctioning or lost keycards, reducing demand on employees and resulting in a calmer and more efficient front desk. 

✨ Remove manual processes. Create check-in automation rules and easily update Digital Keys for room changes as well as early check-in and late check-out. 

🌎 Increase sustainability. Reduce the ecological and financial cost of issuing plastic keycards while appealing to growing numbers of eco-conscious guests. 

 

Fully contactless from booking to check-out 

 

Digital Key isn’t just a clever and convenient feature that works in isolation; it’s fully integrated with Mews Hospitality Cloud to enable an end-to-end, contactless experience. Guests can now: 

  • Check in online and receive upsell offers 

  • Access their room as soon as they arrive 

  • Easily add additional products and services during their stay 

  • Check out hassle-free with bills settled automatically via their saved payment method

A key move for your hotel 

 

With the hospitality landscape shifting faster than ever, Digital Key offers hoteliers a new way to satisfy guest expectations, build loyalty and enhance lifetime value.

We’ve recently started using this functionality in our hotel, which hosts many business and returning guests and we’re seeing great adoption! It’s a clear sign that guests truly value and need this kind of solution.

 

It essentially removes the entire check-in process. Guests can head straight to their room without any hassle, and only those who feel like it stop by the front desk for a quick chat just to say they’ve (once again) arrived. It’s smooth, efficient, and really fits the needs of today’s travelers.

 

Not only does it save time, it also adds a modern and professional feel to the guest experience. We’ve already received enthusiastic feedback from guests who appreciate the convenience and simplicity of it all.

 

We’re also very excited about what’s coming next, especially Apple Wallet support for the Salto digital key. That would take things to an even higher level and make the entire journey feel completely seamless.

 

And a special thanks to ​@james.taylor  for the pleasant and smooth collaboration during the integration - it’s been a real pleasure working together!


Hi ​@Ivo, thank you for your enthusiasm and engagement as an early adopter of the Digital Key with Salto Space. It’s been a pleasure working with you on this.

I’m glad to hear the Digital Key is helping your operations and being well received by your guests.


It’s a pity that an app is required for this. Many corporate guests are not allowed to download such apps on their company phones.
We will therefore need to continue using the solution via Straiv.


🤔 Any chance this feature will be available on other systems besides Salto in the future?
It would be amazing to see this kind of speed and efficiency rolled out more broadly across our platforms 🔄✨. Looking forward to what’s next! 🚀
