USING SNAPFIX IN CASTLE HOTELS
As well as facing issues that are common to many hotels such as lifts breaking down or air conditioning acting up, castle hotels have the added stress of ensuring that all of their antique furnishings stay in pristine condition. Chandeliers need to be cleaned regularly, stained glass has to be well looked after and wood needs to be kept in perfect trim. The priorities are to keep things looking their best and keeping the service level high while maintenance is ‘invisible’ to guests.
With the strenuous demand of high maintenance being needed to preserve these castles to their absolute best, Snapfix is used to allow for efficient management enabling the employees of these hotels to work to the best of their ability. Which in turn allows for the guests to enjoy the most elegant experience.
