Ritz-Carlton Specifies IDenticard For Newest Luxury Hotel

Las Vegas, Nev. (Nov. 5, 2002) -- The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, opening its newest luxury hotel here next January, has selected IDenticard as the supplier for its employee identification system.

The 350-room Ritz-Carlton at Lake Las Vegas becomes the 13th Ritz-Carlton facility in America to specify IDenticard's IVIS digital imaging system.

Now owned by Marriott Corporation, the firm traces its origins to the original Ritz-Carlton hotel, built 75 years ago in Boston. Today, the company enjoys a global reputation for exceptional standards of luxury, service and elegance among the world's premier hotels. It is the first and only hotel company to win the Malcolm Baldridge National Quality Award. Worth Magazine has rated it "the best luxury hotel chain."

Residences at this Mediterranean style resort will offer homeowners the services of a luxury hotel near their homes. Residents and guests will have access to two championship golf courses, a 40,000 square foot casino and a luxurious 30,000 square foot spa.
