Newly Integrated Platform Makes It Simple to Manage Housekeeping Operations

LAS VEGAS, NV and SYDNEY Australia May 18 2017– OPTii Keeper, the world’s leading provider of hotel housekeeping management solutions, today announced the successful integration and availability of its software through a new partnership with CMS Hospitality’s GuestCentrix Property ManagementSystem.

GuestCentrix offers the industry’s premier platform for online bookings and business analytics at hotels, hostels, and apartment complexes, maximizing revenue and enhancing overall guest experience. Now, with OPTii Keeper as part of GuestCentrix’s solutions offering, clients can effectively control their housekeeping costs while significantly improving housekeeping performance.

After just a few days of using OPTii Keeper, Q1 Resort & Spa, based in Surfers Paradise, Australia, and one of the first GuestCentrix customers to adopt OPTii, realized improvements in housekeeping operations said John Wilder, the property’s General Manager.

“I am very pleased we chose OPTii Solutions to streamline the housekeeping requirements for our 300 serviced apartments,” Wilder said. “The system installation and the training of my management went smoothly, and our housekeeping staff have found Optii Keeper easy to use and intuitive.”

Paradise Resort, Hercules Apartments, and Rhapsody Resort, three more fine properties and existing GuestCentrix clients,  have also deployed OPTii through the new strategic partnership, quickly demonstrating the value of the integrated solution to drive housekeeping efficiency and quality improvements.
