Brisbane-based Station Hotel Group, part of the Foreman Development group, has selected and implemented the Protel Multi-Property Edition, supplied by Xn Australia Pty Limited, as their Central Reservations System and Property Management System for its Australian hotel operations. Following an extensive market study, Grant Clonan, Chief Executive Offer - Hotels Division, Foreman Development group, selected Protel MPE and Xn's dotPOS Enterprise Point-of-Sale systems for the group. Station Hotel Group is planning rapid growth in the coming years, focusing on up-scale accommodation in regional locations. Their first site is located in Parkes in New South Wales and opened in early June.
“Protel MPE offers the flexibility we require to automate our systems in a fully managed multi-property environment, giving us the opportunity to centralize all processes ensuring that our GM’s are freed up to be customer service managers rather than administrators. The centralized customer data base offers a distinct marketing advantage over our competitors in regional Australia and gives us the opportunity to build a set of personal customer service deliverables for every guest" said Grant Clonan. Managing Director Xn Hotel Systems, Greg Spicer, said "Station Hotel Group will realise many business and service advantages with Protel MPE's centralised architecture. We are delighted to add the Station Hotel Group to our growing Protel client list in Asia-Pacific." Further inquiries contact sales@xnhotels.com
