Your Phone Is Now Your Key To A Great Stay

We've all been there — a room key that doesn't work, a key lost at the bottom of the ocean — but those days are officially over. Starting Nov. 5 at select Starwood brands like Aloft, Element and W hotels, you'll be able to use your smart phone as your room key, and we know you're not losing that.

This is part of Starwood's ever-evolving technology streamline. You'll be able to do everything from book your room to open the door to your room without ever having to stop at the front desk — unless you need a recommendation on where to find the best local food.

Starwood plans to have the technology installed on all of its 30,000 doors by the end of 2015.

So if you're going to be at the Aloft Cancun or W Singapore this weekend during the roll-out, let us know how it worked on our Facebook page! — Grant Gentry
