Gemini Parking Solutions London Blog Gemini Parking Solutions Chosen by Hilton Bath City

Hilton Bath City is a beautiful hotel situated in the heart of historic Bath. With rooms overlooking the River Avon, and its prime location ensuring visitors have only a five minute walk to enjoy the Roman Bath museum and Bath Abbey, this contemporary hotel is a popular choice for both business and leisure travellers.Because of its city centre location and the convenience of its car park, which is considered a huge asset to both the hotel and its customers, the Hilton Bath City was finding that is parking facilities were being abused. This is why they made the decision to approach Gemini Parking Solutions.The Introduction of an Automatic Number Plate Recognition System After consulting with the hotel team, we determined that the best solution for eliminating unsanctioned parking within the Hilton Bath City hotel car park was to implement an ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) system. As a vehicle passes an ANPR camera, its registration number is read, and can be checked against those number plates that are registered to be using the hotel at the time (guests are asked to provide their number plate to the hotel when they check in).Cars that are parked in the car park without authorisation, whose number plates have not been given to the hotel staff, will then receive a penalty notice. Because the use of the system within the car park is clearly laid out on signage at the entrance and throughout the car park, this system acts as a deterrent to those who may wish to park in the hotel car park without authorisation. Within months of implementing an ANPR system in an environment such as this one, the hotel should see the number of non-authorised parked cars decreasing considerably.A Convenient Solution Because ANPR parking solutions are a ticketless, barrier less solution, customers who are legitimately using and visiting the hotel are able to park in a way that is fast and stress-free, without any prohibitive entry systems, whilst those who are not authorised to park in the hotel and quickly and easily be sought out, removed, and penalised. It's an easy and convenient solution that works perfectly for city centre hotel environments, such as this one.To find out more about Automatic Number Plate Recognition Systems, or the wealth of other parking solutions that Gemini Parking Solutions are able to offer, please do get in touch with us.
