The £12m Bristol hotel will be built opposite Cabot Circus and half a mile from Temple Meads railway station. Once planning permission is granted, easyHotel hope to finish the 145-room hotel by 2020. 

 

Guy Parsons, chief executive, said: "Our investment in Bristol, the fifth since our fundraising in March marks the latest addition to our fast-growing portfolio of comfortable, stylish and highly affordable hotels in key tourist and business locations.

 

"The group continues to review a large number of investment opportunities in both the UK and Europe and we look forward to announcing further developments in due course."

It is important for hotels to keep accurate and up to date records of who is in the building, since not only do they have guests coming and going constantly, they also have cleaning staff, maintenance staff, kitchen staff, bar staff, and many other busy staff members. 

 

Many of these staff members are likely to be temporary/agency staff, and so they are likely to still rely on the old-fashioned paper timesheet to record their weekly hours.

 

Getting employees to retrospectively record their hours worked is not only open to fraud and mistakes from the workers, but it also makes room for human error further up the chain, as managers have to collect and approve all the timesheets. A study has shown that this can take more than 15 minutes per employee. Those numbers quickly mount up. 

 

Thankfully there’s an easy solution. When employees clock in using our clocking terminals, the information is recorded by the software in nearly real-time, and it can be exported straight to your payroll software. 

 

We can even save you money in staffing costs or productivity – our Unmanned Reception app reduces the need for a full-time receptionist.

 

This web app visitor management system allows you to advance book visitor appointments and pre-book on site contractors. Visitors can also book appointments using our Self Service Module.

 

A filtered search list allows a visitor to quickly select their appointment via the Console’s touch screen. Alternatively, contractors can scan their bar-coded passes at a barcode scanner attached to the Console to book themselves on site.
