With more than 200 rooms across 11 categories and several food and beverage (F&B) outlets, including the renowned Pfistermühle and Ayinger an der Au, Platzl Hotels has been a staple of traditional hospitality since 1956 in Munich.

However, to keep pace with modern demands, the hotel recognised the need to update its legacy systems.

Platzl Hotels general manager Heiko Buchta said: “We’re excited to embark on this journey with Shiji. Our partnership reflects our commitment to staying true to our roots while embracing technology to enhance our guests’ experience. Shiji’s integrated systems allow us to increase guest satisfaction while streamlining our operations.” 

The complexity of managing varied room types and F&B outlets at Platzl Hotels necessitated a contemporary solution.

Shiji’s integrated PMS and point-of-sale (POS) systems were identified as the ideal match to handle this complexity, ensuring a seamless guest experience from booking to dining.

Shiji Central Europe sales director Jan Mazur said: “Platzl Hotels’ decision to embrace innovation underscores their forward-thinking approach to hospitality.

“We’re excited to support them in their move into a new digital hospitality concept for the modern traveller while maintaining their approach to excellence in hospitality.”

This collaboration is a testament to the transformative impact of technology in enhancing service levels and operational efficiency in traditional hotels, stated Shiji.

Earlier this year, Shiji also announced the deployment of its Infrasys POS solution at the Mandarin Oriental Savoy Hotel in Zurich and the implementation of an integrated suite of Shiji technology solutions by the Pfalzblick Wald Spa Resort in Germany.
