UAE-headquartered hospitality company, TIME Hotels, is set to implement a new and improved sanitisation protocol, ‘Sanitised & Ready’ in partnership with Diversey.
In response to the tentative steps being taken to ease the COVID-19 restrictions, TIME Hotels is rolling out the initiative across all of its properties in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Egypt – with a wide range of new intensified cleaning measures and sanitisation procedures being implemented throughout all public areas as well as in each individual guestroom.
The improved protocol includes detailed infection control which focuses on the disinfection of all hotel transportation, reception areas, elevators, public rest rooms and guestrooms as well as all F&B outlets and kitchens.
Mohamed Awadalla, CEO, TIME Hotels, says: “‘Sanitised & Ready’, which fully complies with all government and public health directives, aims to ensure a safe, healthy and comfortable stay for our valued guests as well as protecting the wellbeing of our dedicated team members.
“As we prepare for the full recovery of the UAE, and indeed, wider MENA region’s hospitality industry this new initiative is being fully embedded into our daily operations, making all increased sanitisation and cleaning measures standard practice rather than just a precautionary measure.”
As part of the new ‘Sanitised & Ready’ protocol, all hard surfaces and areas frequently touched and used by hotel guests including door handles, elevator buttons, reception counters and door frames are being sanitised every 30 to 45 minutes, with a dedicated housekeeping assistant assigned to each individual area.
In addition, and to provide guests with complete peace of mind, once guestrooms are deep cleaned, door locks will be sealed with ‘Sanitised & Ready’ stickers which will be need to be removed by guests before they are able to insert their key into the lock and enter the room.
