First hospitality company to go live with AirPlay, available
at more than 60 locations
NEW
YORK, April 18, 2024 /CNW/ -- Today, global
hospitality leader IHG Hotels & Resorts (IHG) launches AirPlay
in the first phase of hotel rooms, giving guests the ability to
stream content privately and securely from their iPhone or iPad to
the TV in their guest rooms. AirPlay is available at more than 60
hotels in North America, including
properties like InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta, Hotel Indigo NYC
Downtown – Wall Street and Holiday Inn & Suites Ottawa
Kanata.
IHG is the first hospitality company to provide AirPlay
functionality as part of its in-room entertainment experience. With
AirPlay, IHG provides seamless connectivity and enhances the
overall guest experience, improving guest satisfaction. Guests can
simply scan a QR to the hotel's Wi-Fi network and enjoy a
personalized entertainment experience. Each QR code is unique,
ensuring that a guest's content remains personal and private and
streams only to the LG hotel TV in the room.
Jolie Fleming, Chief Product
& Technology Officer at IHG Hotels &
Resorts, said: "When people travel, we know they want to
take some of the comforts of home with them – whether that's
watching their favorite shows or finishing a movie they started. As
the first hospitality company to integrate AirPlay, IHG Hotels
& Resorts is leading the way in making the guest experience
even more personalized, enabling guests to enjoy content smoothly
and securely on their in-room TV. Whether guests are traveling for
business or leisure, this offering will undoubtedly become a
favorite feature, creating a home-away-from-home entertainment
environment like never before."
IHG Hotels & Resorts continues its dedication to enhancing
guest experiences by investing in transformative technologies.
Integrating AirPlay in hotel rooms provides an enhanced guest
experience, while also driving value for hotel owners and improving
operational efficiency through innovative partnerships and
solutions.
