Hotel Technology Next Generation

Shrewsbury, England | UK based Guestline Ltd, the leading UK supplier of software solutions to the global hospitality industry has won the contract to implement the GuestLynx Central Reservations System (CRS) into Folio Hotels.

Folio Hotels have thirty five 3 and 4 star hotels across the UK. Folio Hotels are traditional and full of character but with the modern facilities expected by today’s guests.

GuestLynx is the only fully featured Windows™ based central reservation system written and entirely supported from the UK. Utilising a thin client platform and standard Microsoft SQL database technology, GuestLynx communicates real-time data such as reservations, availability, hotel information, guest profiles and rates to the Folio estate.

Offering unrivalled levels of flexibility, GuestLynx will interface seamlessly with the groups’ property management system (PMS), as well as global distribution systems (GDS), distribution channels, 3rd party websites and associated companies. Central control lies at the core of GuestLynx, designed around a single central database, GuestLynx enables extensive levels of management control and reporting throughout the estate.

“We chose to work with Guestline on this project due to their proven track record and a willingness to adapt and develop their product to meet our specific requirements” said Alistair Cattanach, Reservations & Revenue Director, Folio Hotels. “They listened carefully to our objectives and have provided us with a central reservation solution that achieves our goals. GuestLynx’s ability to smoothly interface with our PMS and its centralised database structure will massively reduce the man hours currently spent manually updating bookings, rates and inventory controls.”

"We are very excited to be working with Folio Hotels on this project ", stated Steve Patterson, Managing Director of Guestline “We have been able to provide Folio with a centralised solution that will improve efficiencies throughout the entire group”.
