Circa Resort & Casino, located in Las Vegas, is set to open on Oct. 28. The 25-story, adults-only facility will feature 777 rooms, a two-story casino, six temperature-controlled pools, the largest pool amphitheater in the country, the largest sports book in the world, and, something guests in today’s world will be especially interested in, extensive contactless technology and services.
The technology comes via a deal the resort made with Intelity, a company that specializes in contactless experiences for the hospitality industry. Intelity will provide mobile check-in and mobile key, as well as a fleet of 10-inch tablets that will enable contactless service and give guests digital control over their stays.
Guests will be able to skip the front desk and check in directly from their smartphones, but will also be able to use the tablets to order mobile dining, make reservations for resort services and amenities, stream music, and request contactless service.
“The resort itself is one-of-a-kind and we’re thrilled to partner with them to help take service to the next level,” said Robert Stevenson, Intelity CEO, in a release. “In the COVID-19 era, safety and luxury are the two top commodities—and by deploying the Intelity platform, Circa Resort & Casino will be able to provide both at the highest standards available in the industry.”
Additionally, the resort will be able to customize messaging and promotions for special events and groups to provide unique opportunities to personalize guest experiences.
