Elevate Guest Experience with Smarter Access
Access Control for Hospitality
In today’s hospitality industry, security, convenience, and efficiency are no longer optional—they are expectations. Guests demand frictionless check-in, secure rooms, and personalized experiences, while hotel operators need streamlined operations and reduced costs. Traditional locks and keys can’t keep up with these modern demands.
Why Access Control Matters for Hospitality
Hospitality is a fast-paced industry where first impressions shape long-term reputations. But behind the scenes, hoteliers face constant challenges. Modern access control addresses these challenges head-on. By replacing traditional keys with smart credentials—cards, fobs, or mobile keys—hotels can deliver an experience that is faster, safer, and more efficient.
Security Risks & Costs
When keys are lost or duplicated, properties face significant security risks. Unauthorized individuals could gain access, compromising guest safety and property assets. Additionally, the expense of rekeying locks or replacing entire key systems can be substantial and unexpected.
Front Desk Bottlenecks
Traditional key management often leads to long queues at the front desk, particularly during peak check-in and check-out times. This creates frustrating bottlenecks that negatively impact the guest experience and staff efficiency.
High Staff Turnover
In industries with high staff turnover, such as hospitality, constantly reissuing physical keys or programming new access credentials for new employees is a time-consuming and inefficient process, adding to operational burdens.
Property Expansion
For properties that are expanding or managing multiple sites, maintaining consistent and secure key control across all locations becomes increasingly difficult. This can lead to fragmented security protocols and operational inconsistencies.
Compliance & Liability
Reliable and accurate access records are crucial for compliance with various regulations and to mitigate liability in case of security incidents. Without a robust key management system, demonstrating due diligence and accountability can be challenging.

Case Example: Boutique Hotel Transformation
One boutique hotel in Barbados faced recurring challenges with lost keys, high staff turnover, and long check-in times during peak season. Guests often queued at the front desk, staff frequently misplaced master keys, and management struggled with accountability.
After partnering with KSS, the hotel adopted a SALTO mobile access system integrated directly with its PMS. Guests now receive digital keys on their smartphones before arrival, allowing them to head straight to their rooms. Staff access is managed by role, with digital credentials assigned to housekeeping, maintenance, and security teams. Managers use the cloud dashboard to monitor activity in real time and generate reports.
The results were immediate: guest satisfaction scores rose, front desk congestion disappeared, and the hotel reduced annual key-related expenses by 40%. Most importantly, the property elevated its brand image as a modern, guest-centric destination.
