Rooms occupation rates, prices, quality of services, … hotel industry must face today many challenges in order to stay competitive. To answer those needs, Legrand built a full solution able to manage rooms and services, increase comfort of the guests and bring a real added value for everyone
A full hospitality room management system
The GRMS (Guest Room Management System) is the automation system of the hotel room. It manages information sent by the commands, allowing to operate many functions:
- Light management (ON/OFF or dimmer)
- Openings (curtains, rolling shutters and so on)
- HVAC system
- Launch ambiance and comfort scenes
- Manage services as “Do Not Disturb” (DND) or “Make Up Room” (MUR)
- Presence/absence of the guest in the room
- Communication with third-party systems as supervisors, access controls, PMS, Smartphones/tablets, TV and so on
The BACnet solution allows the system to be interoperable with most PMS (Property Management System) and BMS (Building Management System) on the market
A real added value for hotel’s guests and managers
The interconnection of different systems allows many additional functions. For example:
- When the GRMS is linked to the PMS, the system can save the habits of a customer. Next time he comes to the same hotel, his favorites scenes are automatically launched. If it’s a new customer, a defined “Welcome” scene can be launched
- The maintenance staff badges can be set to launch a dedicated scene to facilitate their work (turn on all the lights to their maximum for a better cleaning comfort, block all commands in order to clean without launching them, open the curtains, and so on)
- Turn the TV ON to broadcast a welcome message, or turn the TV OFF after a specified period if a “Sleep” scene is launched
- Verification from the reception if the customer’s safe is empty during the Check OUT
- Remote modification of the room’s temperature
- …

Legrand - Room control system for hospitality buildings
A customer arrives in the lobby of his hotel. At the reception, he is given the keycard for his room. In the meantime, the receptionist activates the entry door of the room on the computer to open it thanks to the HRC software. The customer plugs his keycard in the keycard reader to automatically turn the lights on and the HVAC, set on 28°C, decrease to 21°C. At the same time, at the reception, they can watch in real time the state of the room: the temperature decrease, the lights turning on, …
The customer is now working on the desk where some equipment is integrated as USB, HDMI, RCA and RJ45 plugs. He also has a command panel where he can launch by a simple click a scenario. Here, he chooses to set the “Work mode”: the desk lamp turns on and other lamps of the room are dimmed
This is now bedtime and our customer is reading. He activates a new scenario on the console panel near his bed to automatically turn off all the lamps excepted the ones around the bed. Then, he pushes the “Do not disturb” button. Finally, he pushes the “Bedtime” button to turn off all the lights, close the shutters and set the room’s temperature to 19°C
The next morning, at the reception, he gives back his keycard. By a simple click the receptionist deactivate the room: the heating and the lights are turned off
