Hotel rooms go high-tech with streaming

Hotels can now offer guests an enhanced in-room entertainment experience that mirrors the sophistication of their home setups

Advanced in-room entertainment, such as Internet Protocol television, was once a luxury found only in five-star hotels. But devices like Google Chromecast and Apple TV are changing the landscape. These devices allow users to stream content from apps directly to the TV and are becoming standard in many hotels.

Key takeaways

• Enhanced guest experience: The evolution of in-room entertainment goes beyond convenience; it significantly enhances the guest experience. Guests can now effortlessly access their favorite content without having to navigate unfamiliar TV channels;
• Shift in consumer preferences: This change reflects the broader consumer trend toward on-demand and streaming services over traditional cable TV;
• Personalized stays: By incorporating casting solutions, hotels can offer a more personalized and enjoyable stay, a feature once reserved for high-end accommodations.
