About PALM Hotel & Spa

Located on the wonderful Réunion Island, PALM Hotel & Spa is a five-star luxury property with 70 rooms, suites and lodges spread over 3.5 hectares of lush gardens. Close to UNESCO World Heritage sites and the lively town of Saint-Pierre, PALM Hotel & Spa is the perfect tropical destination with front-row seats to the ocean.  

It's the only hotel on the island with its brand dedicated to cosmetics and wellness treatments: AKEA Spa & Beauty. Guests who want to venture beyond heated pools, hot tubs and hammams can go on outdoor adventures and marvel at the heavenly landscapes. Managed by a passionate team driven by sustainability, the PALM Hotel & Spa is the first hotel in the French overseas departments and territories to be certified with the EU Ecolabel.

Payment security that prevents VAT fraud

Challenge

The French hospitality industry saw a rise in VAT fraud because of security issues with POS systems. PALM Hotel & Spa wanted a certified PMS that guarantees payment security.

Solution

Mews has an NF525 certificate, meaning that POS systems comply with specific EU standards designed to prevent VAT fraud. In other words, it fully conforms with French fiscal legislation. While some POS solutions allow for grey areas in avoiding tax payments, Mews ensures stringent data conservation. Running on a certified hospitality cloud empowers the PALM Hotel & Spa team to deliver the highest degree of payment security and business integrity to their guests.

Result

• Full protection against VAT fraud
• The highest level of payment security and business integrity

Keeping everything in one place streamlines operations, ensuring no information gets lost.
