Late arrival without staff โ€“ Flexible arrival times without additional costs

WardHUB in hotel

WardHUB enables hotels, guesthouses, and bed & breakfasts to offer professional 24-hour check-in without additional staff costs. Reception prepares the room card, deposits it in the safe, and sends guests their individual PIN code via email or SMS โ€“ simple, secure, and convenient.

Guests with late arrivals, night arrivals, or outside reception hours can independently collect their room card and check in directly. The weather-protected electronic lock (IP65) is perfect for outdoor installation in the entrance area. The intuitive PIN entry is immediately understandable for international guests โ€“ no language barriers, no waiting times.

Especially for small hotels, guesthouses, and bed & breakfasts, WardHUB offers an economical alternative to expensive 24-hour reception solutions or automated check-in systems. The Public Mode function enables an individual code for each guest with automatic reset. The high-quality steel housing with tamper-proof locking reliably protects room cards from theft and provides a professional first impression in the entrance area. Master code function allows hotel staff access at any time in emergencies or forgotten codes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the late arrival process work for hotel guests?+

Reception prepares the room card, deposits it in the WardHUB and generates an individual PIN code. This is sent to the guest before arrival via email or SMS.

Can I safely store room cards in the WardHUB?+

Yes, absolutely. The tamper-proof 2mm steel construction protects room cards, room keys, and access cards reliably from theft and unauthorized access.
