Mobile Hotel Key with LEGIC Connect

During the current COVID pandemic, the virtual key solution also allows guests to benefit from a contactless experience, bypassing crowded situations including check in and check out, the elimination of physical room key, as well as contactless housekeeping requests.

The solution is built on the cloud-based security platform LEGIC Connect which enables the Village Hotels mobile app to communicate via Bluetooth Low Energy with LEGIC security modules which are embedded in the room door lock.
