Shiji’s PMS goes live in Florence, Italy with the new Ruby Bea Hotel

Historic Florence welcomes the brand new Ruby Bea Hotel, powered by Shiji’s PMS, POS and payments technology for a seamless, enhanced guest experience.

BARCELONA, Spain. September 12, 2024 – Shiji, the global leader in hospitality technology, is proud to announce the successful implementation of Shiji Enterprise Platform at Ruby Bea Hotel Florence, marking a significant milestone for both the hotel and the city. Situated on the edge of Florence’s historic city center, the brand new Ruby Bea Hotel offers guests a blend of Renaissance charm and modern luxury. With 118 rooms housed in a grand building overlooking a picturesque square, Ruby Bea draws inspiration from the great artists and thinkers of the Italian Renaissance.

"The integration of Shiji Enterprise Platform is a pivotal step in enhancing our guest services and operational efficiency," said Fabian Zellinger, Vice President Corporate Development, Systems & New Ventures at Ruby Hotels. "This technology allows us to deliver a personalized and memorable experience, aligned with the charm and sophistication of Florence. Moreover, Shiji Enterprise Platform ensures that we remain fiscally compliant with Italian regulations, streamlining our financial operations and providing peace of mind."

With Shiji Enterprise Platform's enterprise-level capabilities, integrating a new property can be accomplished in hours rather than days. This rapid deployment capability is crucial for Ruby Hotels as they continue to expand their footprint and maintain high standards of service across all their locations. Additionally, the platform's user-friendly interface and robust support system ensure that hotel staff can quickly adapt and utilize the technology to its fullest potential. For example, checking in guests is a smooth and easy process due to a guided check-in workflow and instant access to a global guest profile that includes guest preferences and special requests. By leveraging Shiji's innovative platform, Ruby Hotels can focus on their core mission of providing an exceptional hospitality experience for their guests.

"We are thrilled to support Ruby Bea Hotel Florence in this historic city," said Jose Guixeras, Sales Director Western Europe at Shiji. "Shiji Enterprise Platform’s Single Guest Profiles and universal search functionality will enable the hotel to meet the high expectations of today's travelers, providing a seamless blend of historical elegance and modern convenience. Moreover, the platform’s robust and scalable architecture is a perfect fit for Ruby as they expand."
