“Smart hotel” opens in Budapest in September – PHOTOS
Change language:
Up Hotel Budapest will open its doors on September 1st in the city centre, close to Oktogon Square.
Hungarian tourism is on the road to recovery. Dozens of summer programmes all over the country, as well as the opening of some new hotels, also suggest the same.
Domestic tourism takes off in Hungary
At the end of July, DNH attended the opening ceremony of the Crowne Plaza Budapest Hotel, next to Nyugati Railway Station. In just a week, another beautiful and stylish hotel will start its journey in the Hungarian capital, at an equally frequented and popular location.
Up Hotel Budapest’s motto, “Being smart is always a good idea”, is reflected in every detail. The 157-room brand-new hotel is ready to welcome everyone with its genuine yet smart hospitality.
“Working on a technology-enhanced hotel concept, we aimed to create contemporary spaces completed with the hottest electronic devices and services shaped by your ever-changing needs and interests,”
highlights the management on their website.
Their modern electronic solutions and smart devices will make procedures much faster and easier.
The hotel’s own application makes check-in and check-out possible, while your smartphone will also act as your room key.
The appliances in every hotel room, like heating or AC, are controlled from a tablet. The device also enables guests to contact the Front Desk or make local phone calls.
Another innovation that does the opposite of saving time and effort. It takes far longer messing around with an app in these so called ‘smart hotels’ than it does to pick up the phone and talk to reception or room service. Also who can be bothered to programme the heating or air conditioning in a hotel room? A simple dial on the wall is all that is needed. It’s a silly gimmick.
