Partnership with Thistle Hotels Continues MICROS POS Activity in UK

Thistle Hotels announces a partnership with MICROS-Fidelio UK Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MICROS Systems, Inc., to upgrade its various legacy electronic-point-of-sale (EPOS) systems to the PCI compliant 9700 Hospitality Management Solution (HMS), across 30 locations in the UK.

This news comes on the heels of an announcement by Hilton that it has partnered with MICROS-Fidelio to upgrade its own POS systems to the MICROS 9700 HMS solution across 75 of its locations in the UK and Ireland.

The MICROS 9700 HMS solution will replace all of the Thistle Hotels legacy EPOS systems and will aid the hotel chain in producing end-to-end inventory management, tighter stock controls, and real-time reporting. The MICROS 9700 HMS interfaces into the two existing PMS' installed at the 30 Thistle sites, OPERA PMS and Fidelio V6 PMS

"We look forward to significantly reducing our spiraling support costs, bringing the downtime to our business to a minimum, and improving our overall customer service with the implementation of the MICROS integrated solution," states Matthew Newton, Programme & Applications Manager, Thistle Hotels.
