Our elevators and escalators deliver guests to their rooms quietly, efficiently, and comfortably, and can be styled flexibly to form a valuable complement to your hotel’s interior design.
Hotel guests want to spend their time sightseeing, tending to business, and enjoying your hotel's amenities. Schindler's broad range of solutions for hotels and resorts can help your guests move seamlessly through your venue, whether it be a three-story boutique hotel, or luxury accommodations in a high rise.
Schindler PORT, our destination dispatch elevator technology, is engineered to handle high traffic and to avoid long waiting times during peak check-in and check-out hours. Smart energy-saving modes can help increase energy efficiency within a group of elevators by maximizing transport capacity.
[Schindler technology] has reduced delays by more than 50 percent. Visitors are delighted with the experience, and as an added benefit, energy consumption has been reduced by 3.3 percent which, in a hotel the size of the Marriott Marquis, adds up to 1 million kilowatts.

Major hotels overlook New York City's Times Square, and perhaps the most famous is the 49-story, 1.8 million-square-foot, New York Marriott Marquis, itself a tourist attraction. Designed by the architectural firm of John Portman & Associates, the hotel is an imposing structure with a spectacular atrium that houses a circular bank of 16 elevators. Located in the heart of Times Square, the hotel mirrors the tremendous mobility that energizes New York.
Now, after a Schindler elevator modernization, hotel guests enter their floor destination into strategically located keypads in the lobby and are directed to the elevator that will take them there with minimal stops along the way.
Overlooking the historic skyline of Hartford, Connecticut, the Hartford Marriott Downtown is a prime example of when modern luxury meets architectural excellence. Spanning an impressive 320,000 square feet and standing at 22 stories tall, the hotel has long been a preferred destination for business travelers, event attendees, and vacationing guests alike.
In a continued effort to enhance the guest experience and maintain its reputation for innovation, the hotel recently completed a major infrastructure upgrade: the modernization of its two Schindler escalator units. This significant investment in vertical transportation not only improves the efficiency and reliability of movement throughout the property, but also reflects the hotel’s commitment to comfort, safety, and sustainability.
From day one, the Schindler team was instrumental in the planning and flawless execution of this highly complex engineering project, showcasing professionalism, efficiency, and a deep understanding of working in a hospitality environment. They coordinated seamlessly with our schedule to minimize disruption to our guests and staff, and the installation was completed right on time.
