Abstract: Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a tool that performs automatic collection of data, which are similar tools as bar codes and credit cards with magnetic stripes on them. The RFID technology can automatically gather data that might not be collected otherwise. Besides that, it is also capable in higher speed of operation. Consequently, RFID is used to improve system operations and solve several very complex and timesensitive problem. In particular, a basic RFID system is composed of three parts: RFID tags, RFID readers, and processing software. In this paper, a hotel management system with the application of RFID is designed, developed, evaluated and optimized. The objective of the system is to enhance operational efficiency and make it shorter period for customers' waiting time for the billing processing. The main functions of the program are to detect the walk-in time or walk-out time and record the expenditure of customers. In fact, the hotel card is not only function as a key; it can also act as a payment card. Meanwhile, the programming software, such as C Language, My Sequence/Structured Query Language database (MySQL database) and Active Server Pages Web Net (ASP. Net) are learned and explored as to enhance the knowledge of software and hardware implementation during the research project. Hence, throughout this study, it is able to demonstrate the significance and benefits of using RFID technology specifically in the hotel management system.
