5 Ways Hotels Use Technology to Make Your Stay Better
The world continues to evolve and create new technologies. As you go on vacation, you don’t have to leave the luxuries of the world behind. Vacation is a time to relax and enjoy an easy going escape from normal life, which is best achieved through the use of technology. Hotels usually use technology to make your stay better, from the moment you check-in till the time you say goodbye. Here are 5 ways that hotels use technology to make your stay even more luxurious.
Hi-speed Wi-Fi
One of the most basic essentials that a hotel needs to include in order to improve their visitors' experience is providing free Wi-Fi. Beyond that, the internet connection should be fast and reliable, always ready for your use whether you’re wanting to stream a movie or hop on a conference call. Along with providing high-speed Wi-Fi, hotels can provide a business center to make remote work easier than ever. At Hotel EMC2, our business center is open 24 hours a day, so you can work on your trip while still seeing all that the Windy City has to offer.
24-hour virtual support
While you’re on vacation, the fun should never stop, and neither do your late-night cravings. A hotel should offer support round-the-clock, and make it easily accessible with virtual assistants. This can include Amazon Alexa devices, online menus, or other services, allowing guests to have their needs met at the touch of a button or the mention of a name. Hotel EMC2 even offers a texting concierge service, so that you can get answers to your questions by a local expert, as well as Amazon Alexa devices in each room.
Fast room service
When cravings or sudden hunger hits, you don’t want to have to wait for your food to arrive. Room service is a great way to conveniently have your favorite guilty pleasures delivered right to your door, so you don’t have to slow down on your trip. Hotel EMC2 ensures fast and unique room service by sending up your orders with our robots, named Leo and Cleo. Whether you need water bottles or a sweet treat, they enjoy zipping around the hotel, satisfying your every need.
State-of-the-art fitness center
Just because you’re on a vacation doesn’t mean that you have to lose your training progress. A hotel should provide you with a gym, ready for your every workout need. Technology allows these fitness centers to better serve visitors, by providing state-of-the-art equipment and other enhancements to workouts. Hotel EMC2 is a great spot to try out the latest workout technology that’s sure to get a sweat going.
Smart TV
In most modern hotels, a smart TV is included in every room, allowing guests to easily connect to their streaming services. Taking it one step further, Hotel EMC2’s smart TV’s are intertwined with the other technology in the room. From giving you a notification when your room service robots have arrived to allowing you to control the ambiance through speakers and lights in your room, your TV is a control center for your every wish.
