Competition between hotels has skyrocketed since the digital transformation reached the Hospitality industry and an authentic race has begun to innovate digital services and create the first smart hotels.

This advancement of Hospitality services comes as no surprise given the new context, where the supply of accommodations has exponentially diversified and new guests are looking for experiences in which innovation and technology are at the forefront of newly updated hotel services.

Telecommunications, integrating IoT, and providing the digital services that make the creation of smart hotel rooms possible are some of the ways in which hotels are approaching the digital transformation of tourism and the integration of technological innovations in their facilities.

This ambitious commitment to digital solutions within the Hospitality sector has led to the emergence of hotels that stand out as the most high-tech, surprising guests with services and technologies that are sure to leave no one indifferent.

 

The 5 hotels with the most innovative telecommunications systems

Telecommunications solutions tend to be at the forefront when it comes to innovating and adding value to a hotel room. This way, guests not only have easy access to any digital service they use at home, but they also have the opportunity to experience an accommodation based on smart and automated solutions.

Among all the new accommodation types out there, the following hotels offer the most high-tech and innovative digital services:

 

  1. Aloft Cupertino, California

Naturally, Silicon Valley is home to one of the hotels with the most to show for a commitment to robotics.

This hotel’s staff is comprised of robots who will take care of all of the guests’ requests and provide them with any information they need.

 

  1. Virgin Hotels Chicago

This hotel developed an application that can respond to all its guests’ needs.

With this interactive system, guests can check in, pay their bill at check-out, and control their room’s features including the temperature, lighting, and audiovisual devices.

 

  1. CitizenM Hotels

This well-known hotel chain with a presence in the world’s most frequently visited cities provides a tablet in each room so that guests can do anything from communicate with staff to adjust the curtains and control the thermostat.

The system is similar to Televes’ Digital Signage system, which has also incorporated digital home automation services and IoT technology.

 

  1. Eccleston Square Hotel, London

As any great hotel with the English seal of approval, its structure is quite traditional, while its interior is an ode to innovation and cutting-edge technology.

This hotel is the smart room standard-bearer, where digital services allow guests to fully customize their incredibly interactive stay, thanks to the tablets that control the room including the flat screens in the bathroom and automated systems to control the lighting, music, and even the shower.

 

  1. Shangri-La Hotel Doha, Qatar

Hotel number five on this list of hotels with cutting-edge technology is one that offers Televes’ Hospitality sector technology to include new telecommunications projects that meet the following objectives:

- Apply the latest telecommunications solutions to improve hotel management.

- Use technology to innovate and provide a more enriching and unique experience to each guest.

All of this was certainly achieved with this next-generation hotel where telecommunications development has made hotel management more efficient, while guests have all the digital services they need to personalize their stay.

The systems developed by Televes and included in this project include a fiber optic network (FTTR) that allows for connectivity from any point and any device, regardless of whether it was provided by the hotel or is one of the guests’ personal devices.

In addition to this, the Digital Signage solution provides access to hundreds of entertainment options, OTT platforms, and information about leisure activities offered by the hotel as well as ways to purchase them.

Like the London hotel, the bathrooms have mirror screen systems and guests are able to use the screens in their rooms to perform any action and sync personal devices and platforms securely and privately.

 

With projects like this one – or the Jumeirah Beach Hotel in Dubai – Televes has demonstrated that it is one of the biggest facilitators of the digital transformation of hotels through telecommunications services that expand connectivity and update services so that they are more interactive, efficient, and digital.
