LAS VEGAS, Mar 22, 2002 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- eRoomSystem Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: ERMS), a leading supplier of in-room technologies for the lodging industry, today announced the signing of a revenue-sharing agreement with the Las Vegas Marriott Suites.
This 278-room all-suites property will install the eRoomServ refreshment center in each of its two-room suites in the second quarter of 2002.
Conveniently located adjacent to the Las Vegas Convention Center and less than one mile from the Las Vegas Strip, the hotel's location along with a myriad of amenities make the Las Vegas Marriott Suites an excellent destination for both business and leisure travelers. As a result, the Las Vegas Marriott Suites historically ranks as one of the top performing properties in the Marriott chain.
"This is the second installation for us in the Las Vegas market," said David S. Harkness, eRoomSystem's chairman and chief executive officer. "The Las Vegas Palms Hotel, which was installed in November 2001, has showcased the profitability of the eRoomServ refreshment center.
"We believe the Las Vegas market is an excellent fit for our product offerings, and we are aggressively pursuing several other hotel properties in Nevada."
