The client

Kempinski is the oldest luxury hotel group in Europe and is currently managing more than 70 hotels.

Luxury, excellent service and an individual style for each property are characteristic for the Kempinski Hotels - be it in Europe, Africa, the Middle East or Asia.

The background

In the years of successful and prosperous business relations, Kempinski and ennit developed a close and experienced collaboration. Thus, ennit was contacted when the existing Content Management System (CMS) did not fulfil Kempinski's requirements anymore.

The websites, realised by a third-party, were based on an editing system, that was no longer able to provide the capacity for the presentation of more than 70 Kempinski hotels. To allow for higher performance and faster reaction times the websites needed to be transferred to a modern CMS. A major priority for the Kempinski hotels was a good and fast usability of the editing system.

The solution

ennit relaunched the Kempinski website as well as the websites of the individual hotels, while adopting the existing designs. A modern CMS was used for providing a powerful basis. Additionally, the whole frontend programming was overhauled and updated.

The CMS was adjusted to fulfil the requests of the Kempinski corporate office. One of several new features was the possibility to edit multiple websites with different subdomains in a single page tree.

Furthermore the system supplies an extensive user administration. It is capable of managing differentiated access rights for the employees in charge of the individual hotels' content. The individual hotels thus gain the means to attend to their websites themselves, without the ability to read or change those of the other hotels.

The websites can be edited in different languages and the necessary translations of page elements can be recorded within the CMS.

A great part of the CMS content can be picked out and used by the Internet Booking Engine (IBE). This not only applies to all the names of cities and hotels in all languages but also descriptions for rooms and images.
