Luxury Hoteliers Magazine 3rd Quarter 2021 | Page 55

Smart room technology is therefore becoming an important emerging trend in the luxury sector . The Internet of Things ( IoT ) allows guests to control and personalize every aspect of their stay , from the lighting to the drapes to HVAC , with the touch of a button . By tracking guest preferences , hotels can cater to returning customers by setting their preferred temperature , lighting and even tune the TV to their favorite program all before they walk in the door .
This technology is not only a luxury feature for guests but benefits hotel owners as well . When guest rooms aren ’ t in use , hotels can adjust the temperature and lighting to energyefficient settings to promote an ecofriendly environment – something many guests are now considering when choosing a hotel .
We ’ ve also seen a greater focus on health and wellness among luxury guests . When choosing a hotel , many guests are looking for a place to relax and recharge . Technology solutions like in-room channels are an easy way to market a property ’ s on-site wellness opportunities or even show on-demand workouts for guests to follow along from the comfort of
their room . Another increasingly popular feature on our WorldVue entertainment platform is our Relax app which offers guided relaxation videos and soothing sounds to give guests a better night ’ s sleep .
The emergence of Wi-Fi 6E and 5G is also creating many new opportunities when it comes to connectivity . Together , these advancements bring next-level , seamless functionality to the wireless world . 5G opens the door to personalized , in-the-moment experiences that help properties easily engage with their guests while Wi-Fi 6E provides a faster , more efficient connection than current wireless connectivity .
