ChromecastとAirPlayがホテルのゲスト体験を向上させるメリット
It’s great to be on vacation. But, feeling at home is what most travelers are looking for. Today, in 2022, we have a hard time detaching ourselves from our favorite series, our online habits, our entertainment on YouTube, Spotify, Disney + for the younger ones (and adults!).
In this new era, hotel guests’ needs are changing. To improve their experience in your hotel, nothing beats the right installations! It’s important to provide guests with an unforgettable stay and optimal comfort.
Guests may want to watch TV shows, sports, reruns after a busy day on their tablets, smart TVs or mobile devices.
So let’s take a look at the benefits of these various technologies like Chromecast and Airplay, the little things that work wonders.
What is Chromecast ?
Chromecast is a connected device that links your smartphone to your TV. It is a multimedia accessory that was launched by Google in 2015.
In a typical setup, a Chromecast plugs into the HDMI port of your television. You then simply connect it to the internet via Wi-Fi with another device like your smartphone, tablet or computer. Once installed and connected to a compatible application, you can watch your current series on a streaming platform, listen to your favorite playlist or organize a “slideshow” evening by viewing your latest vacation photos from among the 1001 applications available on the device (Netflix, Prime Video, OCS, MyCanal, Spotify, Deezer …).
The multimedia content will appear on your TV screen in a few seconds.
What is AirPlay ?
AirPlay is a technology that offers the possibility to broadcast or share videos, photos or songs from your Apple devices on Apple TV using the Bonjour protocol.
To use either application, you simply need a Wi-Fi connection and compatible devices and applications.
So if your guests have the latest iPhone or a MacBook and are not plugged into Windows, they will be able to take advantage of this feature because we all know that with Apple technology, connections and devices must be compatible.
Thus, your ultra-connected customers will be able to follow the news on the networks, use the TV screen available in their room 2.0.
Being on the lookout for new technological trends helps you to win the loyalty of each new customer and make their stay even more enjoyable.
