PHOENIX—SkyTouch Technology, provider of a cloud-based property management system for hotels, has reached an agreement with G6 Hospitality LLC, which operates and franchises more than 1,200 economy lodging locations under the Motel 6 and extended-stay Studio 6 brands in the U.S. and Canada, and Hotel 6 and Estudio 6 brands in Latin America.
With its cloud-based Hotel OS property management system, SkyTouch will address the needs of G6 Mexican and Latin American properties. SkyTouch will also help G6 optimize performance by providing an integrated solution for G6’s distribution channels.
“We selected the SkyTouch Hotel OS platform because it is already a proven, established solution in hotel properties,” said Jeff Winslow, EVP and chief information officer at G6 Hospitality. “Their product has the scalability, functionality and capability to both meet our current needs and accommodate for our rapid growth. Additionally, SkyTouch helps us attain HTNG (Hotel Technology Next Generation) standards for our CRS, which positions our properties for maximum distribution, revenue and reach.”
The SkyTouch Hotel OS platform is a 100% cloud-based, fully integrated property, rate and distribution management system. It provides the operational capabilities, guest-service features, staff management options and information report choices that G6 and other major hotel brands need in order to reduce costs, streamline processes and improve efficiencies for their franchise properties.
With the SkyTouch Hotel OS platform in place, hotels can run operations from anywhere on virtually any mobile device, allowing them to stay on top of business functions in real time. In addition, SkyTouch currently offers more than 125 interfaces to streamline hotel operations and remains committed to responding to what customers need and want by continually building preferred interfaces into its platform based on industry-standard HTNG messaging.
