Fairmont Ramla Riyadh wanted a cutting-edge technology solution to enhance guest experence and optimize operations. Lumiere Group and Signify deployed a connected lighting and controls system that provided property-wide automation.
Fairmont Ramla Riyadh, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
Customer Challenge
The Fairmont Ramla Riyadh presented unique opportunities for a comprehensive automation strategy, but also presented unique challenges. The primary challenge was how to deliver a seamless lighting control and guest room management system across the property’s hundreds of apartments while ensuring guest privacy.
The hotel also required centralized control over electrical outlets and the HVAC system. In addition, because every guest apartment features a private terrace, hotel facilities management required an override capability for the terrace lighting.
Solution
Signify, in partnership with Signify certified system integator Lumiere Group, developed a solution that met all project requirements and demand. The implementation integrates Signify Interact for Hospitality connected lighting management with Signify Dynalite lighting controls and third-party luminaires.
The implementation delivers precise lighting control with custom scene-setting capabilities. With DALI actuators for architectural lighting and state-of-the-art passive infrared (PIR) sensors, it automatically detects when a room is unoccupied, turning off lights, switching the HVAC to an energy-saving "green mode," and disabling non-essential electrical outlets.
Integration with the hotel’s door lock system triggers a curated "welcome scene" when guests first arrive, while a separate, task-oriented scene is activated when hotel staff enter. Additionally, integration with the hotel’s property management system (PMS) automatically adjusts temperature setpoints during check-in and check-out.
Hotel and facilities management personnel can monitor the entire system via a central control room workstation, significantly reducing maintenance intervention times by providing instant alerts whenever any anomalies occur.
