Copenhagen off-campus property offers tech-savvy students convenient and secure access to their rooms using personal smart devices as room keys

Stockholm — April 26, 2016 — Tech-savvy students in Copenhagen can access their accommodations using their smartphones, now that CPH Studio Apartments has adopted the latest technology with ASSA ABLOY Hospitality Mobile Access. CPH Studio Hotel, known for its beachfront location and modern Scandinavian design, provides an experience that stresses innovation and maximized convenience for its residents. As the property focuses on a younger demographic that expects the latest amenities and operations, CPH Studio Hotel needed to ensure that its services could satisfy the mobile-device-oriented lifestyles of its student residents.

A solution that is compatible with the vast majority of smartphones, ASSA ABLOY Hospitality Mobile Access eliminates the need to wait in line for check-in. Instead, residents can simply go straight to their rooms and begin enjoying their surroundings without any intervention on the part of CPH staff.

Thanks to the ability to access rooms on their own terms, residents at the CPH Studio Hotel are now able to customize their experience into one that they find satisfying from the very moment that they arrive. With a large number of students indicating a preference to stay at a mobile-enabled residence verses a non-enabled one, ASSA ABLOY Hospitality Mobile Access ensures that the CPH Studio Hotel is able to provide significantly higher value than other student accommodations in the area.

“Implementing ASSA ABLOY Hospitality Mobile Access has really allowed us to connect with our residents and service them in a way that fits with their lifestyle needs,” says Kim Karlsen General Manager at the CPH Studio Hotel.

ASSA ABLOY Hospitality Mobile Access also provides CPH residents with the highest level of security available to the student accommodation market. It works with a facility’s property management system in order to allocate a room and generate a digital key that is encrypted and securely delivered to a resident's smartphone. The smartphone places the key in a secure key vault within the building’s mobile app. When presented to the appropriate lock, the app transmits the encrypted key via a secure communication channel, ensuring that only authorized users receive a digital key.

“We see a great deal of interest in Mobile Access from various student accommodation operators, such as CPH Studio Hotel,” says Christophe Le Blanc, Global Solutions Director at ASSA ABLOY Hospitality. “The reason is quite simple. More than convenience, Mobile Access brings freedom. Freedom to check-in and check-out anytime for students, freedom for staff to prepare people movement in advance during back-to-school or holiday periods, and freedom for all users to conduct operations remotely. In addition, they benefit from our long experience operating now more than 100,000 doors with Mobile Access worldwide.”
