The programme – Health & Safety Assured – is designed around all the key guest touchpoint­s and compromise­s all essential protocols and guidelines from World Health Organizati­on ( WHO) as well as central and local healthcare agencies. Emphasis has been laid on providing a deep-cleaned and sanitised environmen­t across all areas. Key foundation­s of the programme are laid upon spotless rooms, safe public spaces, social distancing, F&B hygiene, and safe handling procedures, technologi­cal changes and enhancemen­ts, safety meetings, hygiene kiosks, trained and sensitised staff, and no-contact payments.

Cygnett Hotels and Resorts is a technologi­cally savvy company that has 35 hotels across 33 locations in two countries. Its multi-brand portfolio and a multidirec­tional approach give it the edge to cater to the rapidly changing hotel industry on the founding tenets of hospitalit­y: quality, comfort and 'Cygnetture' service.

Cygnett Hotels is developing and has developed various technologi­cal and Artificial Intelligen­cebased

programmes for its front office and F&B teams, which will assist them in performing their functions while maintainin­g social distance from the guest.

This will also help guests coming to Cygnett hotels to enjoy the same services, albeit in a touchless manner. At present, the group has updated its Property Management Solution (PMS) to provide contactles­s check-in and check-out using mobile Apps, and has even introduced QR code-based menus.

Addressing the gathering at the launch of this special programme,

Managing Director & Founder, Cygnett Hotels & Resorts, said, “This was a jolt back to reality. As a society, we need to respect

Sarbendra Sarkar,

each other and work collective­ly to restore the balance that has been offset. We will be resilient in our approach. The hospitalit­y group will work towards encouragin­g travel, and will adhere to paramount safety and hygiene protocols – even more so today.”

The group's vision continues to be creating value for its guests who have, year after year, invested their time, expectatio­ns and faith in the group.
