MCD provides the features commonly used by hotels, motels, cruise ships, and hospitals. It
also provides elite features required of full service hotels, such as VIP status, automatic personal
wakeups, multiple languages, and maid identification.
Using the Hotel/Motel feature, receptionists, operators, and front desk personnel can
• View information on guest rooms, guests, and room extensions. Receptionists can add and
edit guest room information.
• Check in and check out guests, thus keeping track of arrivals and departures.
• Set the condition and occupancy status of rooms. Receptionists can set the condition and
occupancy status of rooms or maids can do this by entering personal ID codes—clean, not
clean, maid present, out of service, to be inspected. Requiring maids to identify themselves
when indicating room status changes enforces accountability and enhances quality.
• Search for rooms by using room condition and occupancy status as search parameters.
• Assign VIP status labels to room extensions so hotel employees respond accordingly when
VIP guests call the front desk or other hotel extensions. Assigning VIP status labels to
rooms optionally triggers the system to provide personal wake ups when VIP guests set
the wake-up feature. In addition, hotel employees can associate labels to room extensions
to provide insight as to the purpose of their stay (for example, Honeymoon, conference,
wedding) or to provide language identification so calls are answered in the guest’s language.
• Enable Automatic personal wakeups for specific VIP or non-VIP guest rooms so that per-
sonal wake-up calls for the guests are automatically set.
• Change the language of phone display prompts and applications for the phones in a guest
room at 'check in' from the attendant console or the PMS.
• Select up to fifteen different languages including English, French (Canadian), French (Eu-
ropean), Italian, German, Spanish (European), Spanish (LA), Dutch, Portuguese (Brazil),
Portuguese, (European), Romanian, Russian, Swedish, Polish, Simplified Chinese, and
Arabic on IP phones only.
