Old Course Hotel turns to Electrolux Professional Laundry innovations

Posted on May 1, 2014 Updated on May 1, 2014

Right on the world-famous Dukes Golf Course and overlooking the incredible Scottish coastline, the five-star Old Course Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa offers some of the most luxurious accommodations in Scotland. The acclaimed hotel sits alongside the world-famous “Road Hole”– the 17th on the Old Course in St. Andrews.

Highly regarded among professionals and leisure golfers, the hotel is also well known for one of Europe’s most advanced concepts in total well-being, providing an unequaled spa experience. With hundreds of towels, robes, and sheets used by the on-site therapists each day, the spa’s laundry facilities must keep up with the demand and the workload to meet its required 24-hour turnaround.

The Old Course Hotel decided to take full control over its spa laundry to maintain the highest level of customer service while reducing operational costs. It recognized Electrolux Professional Laundry as the best solution provider for handing the entire scope of the project from initial stages of feasibility analysis to the final installation.

Electrolux Professional laundry solutions for the Old Course Hotel Spa
Soft-mount, high-spin Electrolux washers were matched with high-performance Electrolux dryers engineered to save water, energy, and increase productivity.  Electrolux washers have unique innovations such as AWS (Automatic Water Savings) which saves up to 30% on water. Other features include RMC (Residual Moisture Control) allowing for precise control of remaining moisture in the load and reversing cylinders which reduce energy consumption and protect linens and towels from tangling and overdrying.  Electrolux professional washers and dryers are designed to shorten the process while producing the highest quality results.

Maintaining highest levels of service while reducing expenses
Spa Manager Andrea Molloy is pleased with the set-up. “Having the machines on site means we can run things really efficiently. We have much more control over the prioritization of the spa laundry, which means we can be sure of maintaining our high levels of customer service at all times. Being able to save on costs is also a major benefit and means we’re able to further invest in the business.”
