The largest five-star hotel in Syria, the Ebla Cham Palace is a premier deluxe property located 9km from Damascus city centre and 13km from the International Airport. It is situated in 48 hectares of private gardens, adjacent to the convention centre, and offers 500 super deluxe guest rooms and suites, each lavishly decorated with designer interiors each featuring a private balcony, modern bathroom, TV with satellite channels, refrigerated mini bar, remote air conditioning and in-room safety lockers.
To maintain its position as the premier hotel in Damascus, the property completed a major renovation programme including upgrading its security facilities prior to hosting the annual summit of the Arab League.
Victor Hage, Salto Systems ME regional manager, said: “As part of this renovation, security at the Ebla Cham Palace hotel represented a significant investment in their overall budget and Salto was able to adapt our lock escutcheons to the hotel’s existing doors without major changes having to be made.”
The Salto XS4 access control system was selected as the solution to the hotel’s security needs, enabling it to control and manage a greater range of access control applications than before.
It required no hard wiring and is designed around electronics that use distributed intelligence to pass information between microprocessors in the electronic handle set and the key card.
This enabled the XS4 electronic handle sets to be easily added to the hotels existing locks and doors, turning them into fully featured access control doors without compromising comfort, convenience, security or control.
