The Per-User Trap

Most VoIP providers charge $25–50 per user, per phone. For a hotel with 50+ room phones, a front desk, and back office, that adds up to thousands per month — per property. Multiply that across multiple locations and it's brutal.

  • 50 room phones x $35/user = $1,750/mo just for guest rooms at a single property
  • Per-seat pricing from RingCentral, 8x8, and Vonage that multiplies with every room
  • Extra charges for call recording, auto-attendants, and "premium" features
  • 1–3 year contracts that lock you in whether the service is good or not
  • DIY setup or expensive professional services to get configured

How We're Different

  • Flat monthly rate starting at $165/mo per property + actual usage
  • No per-user fees — unlimited extensions included
  • Every feature included — no add-on charges
  • Full setup, configuration, and number porting handled by us
  • Month-to-month, no contracts — we earn your business every month

We Specialize in Hotel Conversions

Your property stays running. Your guests never notice. We handle the entire conversion from start to finish.

  • Keep your existing analog room phones. We use Grandstream ATAs and gateways to connect them to our VoIP system. No hardware swap in every room.
  • No room-by-room installation. Gateways connect in your server/telco room. Guest rooms are untouched.
  • Zero disruption to guests. We coordinate cutover to minimize downtime — most properties switch over in under an hour.
  • Front desk and back office get new IP phones. Pre-configured Grandstream IP phones, ready to use out of the box.
  • We port all existing numbers. Guest lines, OTA listings, reservation numbers — nothing changes externally.
  • Hotel-specific features built in. Wake-up calls, do-not-disturb, check-in/check-out call routing — all included.

What This Means for Your Property

You don't need to touch a single guest room. The phones your guests already know how to use keep working — they just work better now.

Your front desk team gets modern IP phones with speed dials, call transfer, and a live directory. Your back office gets the same system with voicemail-to-email, call recording, and the PJL Connect app for real-time 911 alerts, call analytics, and after-hours call routing.

And externally? Nothing changes. Same phone numbers, same OTA listings. Guests, travel agents, and booking platforms all reach you the same way they always have.

PJL Connect for Hospitality

Know what's happening on your property — the moment it happens. The PJL Connect app puts real-time 911 alerts, call analytics, and call routing controls directly in your pocket. When a guest dials 911 from any room phone, your GM and on-duty manager get an instant push notification with the room number — before first responders even arrive.

After hours? Forward all incoming calls to your answering service with a single tap. Heading into a morning meeting? Check last night's call volume and peak times at a glance. PJL Connect gives property managers the visibility and control they need — without being tied to the front desk.

Download on the App Store

E911 Compliance & Life Safety — Built In

Federal law requires hotels to support direct 911 dialing and dispatchable location data. Non-compliance carries penalties of up to $10,000 plus $500 per day. We deliver a fully compliant solution out of the box. Learn more in our hotel VoIP buyer's guide.

Kari's Law Compliant

Guests dial 911 directly — no prefix, no 9-first. Every room phone connects to emergency services with a single dial. Required by federal law since February 2020.

RAY BAUM's Act Compliant

Dispatchable location data — floor, room number, and building — is automatically sent to emergency dispatchers. Responders know exactly where to go.

Front Desk 911 Notification

When any phone dials 911, the front desk is automatically notified so staff can respond, direct first responders, and account for guests. Required by Kari's Law.

Fire Panel & Life Safety Lines

We support fire alarm panel lines, elevator emergency phones, and other life safety circuits. These critical lines are configured with dedicated failover to ensure they never go down.

Elevator Emergency Phones

Elevator cab phones connect through our system with dedicated lines and automatic failover. Meet code requirements without maintaining separate analog lines.

LTE Failover Available

Optional wireless LTE backup keeps critical lines — 911, fire panels, and elevators — operational even if your primary internet connection goes down entirely. Additional cost applies.

Integrates With Your Property Management System

Our phone system integrates with virtually every major PMS platform. Check-in triggers room phone activation. Check-out resets voicemail and clears the line. Wake-up calls sync with the front desk. Room status updates flow automatically.

PMS integration modules are provided at the property level — we'll walk you through options and costs during quoting so there are no surprises.
