With the NEW Kube Essentials hitting the hotel market in June, hoteliers now have guest charging options for every area of their hotel and at every price point; Visit Kube Systems in Booth 2435 at HITEC June 26 to 29 in Toronto
[Jericho, N.Y., May 31, 2017] — Next month at HITEC, Kube Systems will showcase three charging solutions that will keep guests’ mobile devices powered while on property. With a Kube for every type of hotel and fitting most budgets, HITEC attendees will experience affordable, upgradeable, and compact solutions that will satisfy the needs of operators and travelers alike. Whether it’s an in-room alarm clock with Bluetooth Audio or a portable charging unit for use in public spaces, there’s now a Kube for every hotel. Operators in the lower-tier segments can now afford to add a charging appliance to their guestrooms that will help them stand out in their local markets without being prohibitive to their budget.
“Guests are interacting with their mobile devices more than ever before, and as such, KUBE Systems has designed a charging solution that will keep them powered anywhere and everywhere: at the bedside, poolside, lobby or even in the cabana on the beach,” said Dave Weinstein, Kube Systems Vice President. “Even in a world of constant change to technologies and hotel industry requirements, our three charging solutions will ensure investment protection with built-in charging cables that are upgradeable to next generation standards. So, go ahead . . . tell your guests to leave their chargers and cables at home. Kube Systems has your back – and theirs.”
Less Cost, More Functionality After a year of development, Kube Systems is pleased to announce that its Kube Essentials solution – a concept that debuted at HITEC 2016 – is now market-ready and shipping to hotels in June. The new multi-device charger for guestrooms not only charges all devices including laptops, but it’s more affordable than most comparable devices with more charging capability than any solution on the market. It’s also small enough that it won’t clutter the bedside.
Kube Essentials sports built-in charging cables – one Apple Lightning and one Micro USB – that are upgradeable to next generation charging formats. For example, the Micro USB cable can be upgraded to USB Type-C (reversible plug capability). It also features two USB Ports and an optional wireless Qi charging pad that enables guests to drop and charge their compatible mobile device on a large four-inch surface.
Global Installations Kube Systems will also showcase its popular Kube Audio Clock charging station with audio player and alarm clock for guestrooms and the Kube 5 portable charging station for public areas. Both products are compatible with virtually all smartphones and tablets, and each can power up to six mobile devices simultaneously. Kube Audio Clock provides an in-room experience that enables guests to listen to their personal music while powering multiple devices at the same time all within proximity to each other and without a lot of clutter at the bedside. The Kube 5 – which comes as a kit of five portable units and one charging tray – is ideal for restaurants, lounges, lobbies and meeting venues.
Why Visit Kube Systems at HITEC? Kube Systems’ customers are its best salespeople. Here are just a few reasons why you should plan to visit Kube Systems in Booth #2435 at HITEC:
- “With the Kube Audio Clock, guests who may have forgotten to bring a charging cable don’t have to worry because each Kube is already equipped with everything they need. It’s great for the hotel too because magnets hold the integrated cables in place to keep the night stand clutter free. In a word, the Kube Audio Clock fits the needs of the Axiom Hotel and our guests ‘perfectly.’ We are thrilled with the Kube Audio Clock and the service we receive from Kube Systems.” —Garry Cox, General Manager, Axiom Hotel San Francisco
- “The Kube Clock is versatile, and it enables us to meet our guests’ needs in a new way. Rather than spending a lot of money buying charging cables for guests to use because they forgot theirs at home or misplaced them along the way, the Kube Clock’s built-in connectors give travelers everything they need to plug and play without having to contact the front desk. The wireless Qi charger is really convenient; it lets guests drop and charge their phones without any wires. This little Kube is a big reflection of our commitment to providing amenities that ease stress and add convenience. We absolutely love the Kube Clock, and so do our guests. A few people have even asked if they can buy the units from us.” — Jennifer Austin, General Manager, Distrikt Hotel New York City
- “From an operations perspective, the Kube 5 is the ideal solution for our midscale hotel because we don’t need to have to purchase a piece of charging equipment for each room; because it’s portable, it’s affordable.” —Meredith White, General Manager, Comfort Inn & Suites Boston
- “The Kube 5 is functional, engaging, and in use all day long. Our staff is trained to offer a Kube to any guest in need, whether they are enjoying dinner in our award-winning restaurant, sipping a glass of wine on our comfortable outdoor patio, or relaxing in the lobby. We even have customers requesting that Kubes be made available during meetings – including placing multiple Kubes on the boardroom table, in the back of one of our nine meeting rooms, or in the pre-function space. Due to demand, we ordered and just received additional units.” —Sam Johnson, General Manager, Pan Pacific Hotel Seattle
