Siegel Group Selects MICROS OPERA Lite
COLUMBIA, MD, April 9, 2009 - MICROS Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: MCRS), a leading provider of information technology solutions for the hospitality industry, is pleased to announce that The Siegel Group Nevada, Inc., a Commercial Real Estate Investment & Business Development Company, has selected the OPERA Lite Property Management System (PMS) and myfidelio web booking engine for two newly acquired properties, the Gold Spike Hotel & Casino and Resort on Mount Charleston. The Siegel Group Nevada has also selected OPERA Sales and Catering and MICROS 9700 for the Resort on Mount Charleston.
The Siegel Group Nevada purchased the Gold Spike Casino in February 2008 and has since transformed this legendary downtown Las Vegas property which had fallen into disrepair, into the highly acclaimed Gold Spike Hotel & Casino. Part of the transformation and upgrade included a new hotel system which would suit the property's requirement for basic hotel management at a cost effective price.
Based on the success of the first implementation, The Siegel Group Nevada has also selected OPERA Lite PMS, OPERA Sales & Catering, the myfidelio web suite, and MICROS POS for the recently purchased Resort on Mount Charleston, a picturesque logwood property in the mountains above Las Vegas, which attracts nature lovers and visitors seeking a retreat from the casino buzz. OPERA Lite PMS provides The Siegel Group Nevada with the power of MICROS's world renowned OPERA Enterprise Solution, pre-configured with modules to fit its simple technology needs.
"After beginning our search for the optimal hotel system, we saw the immediate value in selecting a property management system that offers seamless integration to a full web suite, including web site booking and GDS/ADS connectors, the point-of-sale system, and numerous other 3rd party interfaces," stated Andrew Rapport, Chief Operations Officer, The Siegel Group Nevada, Inc. "Looking to the future and our plans to add multiple properties to our portfolio, we are aware how beneficial OPERA will be for the future centralization of our system needs."
"We are pleased to be The Siegel Group Nevada's IT partner in its newly acquired properties in Las Vegas, and we look forward to working with them on their newest property, Siegel Slots and Suites," stated Ina Mohan, Managing Director Hotel Casino Division, MICROS Systems, Inc. "Stephen Siegel is a dynamic and innovative entrepreneur, who has proven his revolutionary strategy of converting forgotten properties into something special. The Siegel Group Nevada is well respected in the hotel management community and we look forward to a strong partnership with them as they grow."
