HOSPITALITY AND BUILDING MANAGEMENT

The Waterfront Hotel

A custom building management system connecting the operational heart of a 165-room hotel through one clear, accessible interface.

THE REQUIREMENT

Full visibility across a complex operational property.

The Waterfront Hotel includes a full kitchen, spa, restaurant, conference facilities and a complex mechanical plantroom. The hotel needed a dependable way to see each critical system, reduce manual checks and react to faults before they affected guests or daily operation.

Domotica Systems designed a custom Loxone building management system that brings plant equipment, energy, refrigeration, ventilation, water and pool systems into one interface available from a phone, tablet or computer.

The hotel team explains how the completed system supports everyday building operation.

ONE MANAGEMENT INTERFACE

The whole hotel, organised around the way it operates.

Controls, electricity, emergency overrides, refrigeration temperatures, climate, lighting, liquid levels, pool temperature, ventilation and water consumption are grouped logically within the same system.

MECHANICAL PLANTROOM

Complete visibility of the building's heart.

Pumps, boilers, calorifiers and heat exchangers are monitored live. Running status, faults, circuit pressures and temperatures are visible remotely, while dedicated emergency overrides allow authorised staff to react quickly without first reaching the plantroom.

BEHIND THE SYSTEM

Built, wired and commissioned for the plantroom.

The finished interface is only one part of the project. Domotica Systems built the control cabinet, integrated the existing mechanical controls and installed a dedicated operator display so the hotel team can see live readings, understand the system and retain direct local control.

ENERGY MONITORING

Twenty meters. Every operational zone.

Electricity is monitored across guest-room floors, the spa, boiler house, reception, plantroom, conference facilities, kitchens, restaurant, IT and laundry. Management can compare consumption between areas and investigate unusual demand using real operating data.

COLD CHAIN MONITORING

Fifty units without handwritten logs.

Teltonika wireless sensors monitor the hotel's fridges and freezers continuously. Twelve hubs pass readings to the Loxone Miniserver through MQTT. Temperature records are stored automatically and alerts are issued when a unit moves outside its safe range.

DELIVERED SYSTEM

One coordinated operational layer.

Mechanical plantroom monitoring and control
Pump status, fault monitoring and emergency overrides
Live pressure and temperature readings
Electricity monitoring across 20 operational zones
Continuous fridge and freezer temperature records
Ventilation and extractor monitoring
Water reservoir level monitoring
Pool temperature and exchange pump control
Water consumption and cost tracking
Remote access, alerts and historical records

ADDITIONAL SYSTEMS

Critical information, presented clearly.

Ventilation, reservoir levels, pool temperatures and water consumption each have dedicated views, alerts and control functions within the wider hotel interface.

THE RESULT

Fewer disconnected checks. Faster, informed action.

The hotel team can now monitor critical equipment, review consumption, receive alerts and act remotely through one consistent interface. Historical data replaces manual temperature records, while live plant information helps staff identify problems before they develop into larger operational issues.
