JUFA Hotels selects Shiji Daylight PMS and Amadeus iHotelier® to Power the Future of Family-Focused Hospitality Across 61 European Hotels
Austrian hospitality group modernizes operations and guest experience with a scalable, secure, and customizable cloud platform and CRS
Austria, Vienna, 6月 22, 2026 – Shiji and Amadeus, global leaders in hospitality technology, announced today that JUFA Hotels, a family-focused hospitality group operating in Austria, Germany, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein, has selected Shiji’s Daylight PMS integrated with Amadeus iHotelier to modernize its technology infrastructure across more than 60 properties, with the phased rollout beginning in 6月 2026 and continuing through the end of the year. By adopting Shiji’s cloud-native property management platform and Amadeus’ Central Reservation System, iHotelier®, JUFA Hotels aims to centralize operations, standardize processes across its growing portfolio, and deliver more personalized guest experiences while supporting the diverse operational models across its hotels.
Founded with a focus on accessible travel, community connection, and activity-oriented stays, JUFA Hotels has grown into one of Central Europe’s leading providers of family-friendly hospitality experiences. As the company expanded, its existing tech stack could no longer keep pace with the organization’s operational and technological requirements. The transition to Shiji’s Daylight PMS and Amadeus’ iHotelier CRS represents a strategic move toward future-proof, dynamic technology designed to support JUFA’s continued growth and innovation.
“JUFA Hotels represents exactly the kind of forward-thinking hospitality brand that benefits from a modern, flexible platform,” said Jan Mazur, Director of Sales PMS Europe & Africa at Shiji. “With Daylight PMS, they gain a secure, cloud-native system designed to centralize operations across their portfolio while still supporting the unique needs of each property. Our goal is to provide technology that allows hotel teams to focus on delivering great guest experiences while the platform ensures reliability, flexibility, and scalability behind the scenes.”
Daylight PMS enables JUFA Hotels to centralize management and configuration across its entire portfolio, helping establish consistent operational standards while supporting the unique requirements of each property. Its cloud-native architecture, extensive customization capabilities, enhanced guest profile functionality, and privacy-first design provide the flexibility needed to accommodate JUFA’s diverse business models while supporting more personalized guest experiences, streamlined workflows, and responsible data management.
In parallel, Amadeus’ iHotelier CRS is a comprehensive, easy-to-use solution that helps hotels manage reservations, centralize and optimize distribution, and capture demand across direct and indirect channels – enabling greater efficiency and revenue growth. As part of the broader Amadeus hospitality portfolio, iHotelier continues to evolve with enhanced capabilities supporting more dynamic offers, personalized guest experiences, and emerging AI-driven innovation.
Together, Shiji Daylight PMS and Amadeus iHotelier create a more connected and efficient hospitality technology ecosystem for JUFA Hotels. The integration enables seamless connectivity between property operations, reservations, and distribution channels, helping reduce operational complexity while improving booking efficiency and guest experience consistency across the portfolio. The combined technology environment also enables synchronized guest data and streamlined distribution management while maintaining the flexibility and open architecture required to support JUFA Hotels’ long-term growth strategy.
“Amadeus iHotelier® gives JUFA Hotels the ability to take greater control of its distribution and reservation strategy, ensuring the right offers reach the right guests through the right channels. Our AI-driven ecosystem enables hoteliers to inspire travelers, convert demand and deliver unique experiences,” commented Jan Kamenicek, Regional Vice President Central Europe, Hospitality, Amadeus. “By working closely with Shiji, we are enabling a more unified technology environment that helps improve booking performance, and support JUFA’s continued expansion across Europe.”
“As our portfolio has grown, we needed technology partners that could support our operational complexity while helping us maintain the welcoming, community-focused experiences our guests value,” said Michael Blaschitz, CEO EOSS industries and investor JUFA Hotels. “The combined strength of Shiji and Amadeus technology, together with the seamless integration, made Daylight PMS and iHotelier the right solutions to support our long-term strategy.”
With the rollout underway from 6月 through the end of 2026, the implementation marks a major step in JUFA’s digital transformation, providing a scalable platform designed to support the group’s continued expansion across Europe.
