The Citadines hotel chain faced the challenge of modernising its facilities to improve energy efficiency and safety. The key objective was to reduce operating costs and implement solutions enabling dynamic management of the hotel infrastructure, while improving guest comfort. An additional challenge was the need to carry out the modernisation in stages, without disrupting the operation of the facility.

The Citadines hotel has implemented the advanced Ampio building automation system, which meets the needs of modern hotel infrastructure. Thanks to the installation of presence sensors, the system automatically turns off the lighting and air conditioning when a room is empty. This solution has significantly reduced operating costs.

In addition, an innovative rapid notification system has been introduced, which allows staff to be immediately informed of situations such as breakdowns, uncontrolled leaks or noise disturbing guests. The Ampio system is also distinguished by its simplicity of installation – the Ampio bus minimised the amount of cabling required, which facilitated the floor-by-floor modernisation. Thanks to the compact size of the PRO series modules, it was possible to use them in existing, small electrical switchboards.

The entire project was carried out in a flexible and professional manner, taking into account all the investor's needs and the specific nature of the hotel infrastructure.

• Presence sensors – automatic lighting and air conditioning control
• Notification system – instant reports of failures or disruptions.
• Ampio bus – less cabling, faster and simpler installation
• Compact modules – adapted to existing spaces in distribution board
• Flexible implementation – carried out in stages, without disrupting the hotel's operations

Thanks to the installation of Ampio automation at the Citadines hotel in Berlin, the facility has gained a modern and effective infrastructure management system. The combination of innovative solutions, such as presence sensors and the PRO range, has enabled cost reduction, improved security and increased guest comfort. The project was carried out in a professional and flexible manner, with the needs of both the hotel chain and the installers in mind.
