Smarter Guest Rooms

The same smart automation conveniences found in many Hawaii luxury properties can create impressive guest room experiences. Motorized shades can be activated at the touch of a button to let in the morning sun and a glorious view of Diamondhead for rooms facing it. Lighting control scenes can make it easier to manage room lighting, controlling multiple lamps and ceiling lights with one touch. When guests leave, they can turn everything off—including the TV—with one button. And for efficiency, when a guest has checked out, the lights and air conditioning can be turned down automatically to save energy. 

Easy-to-Use Meeting Spaces

Business users should not have to fumble with hard-to-decipher room lighting and AV systems for meetings. A room control system can manage multiple aspects of the environment and simplify AV and videoconferencing. Touchscreen controllers can present simple buttons for dimming lights, controlling window shades or drapes, and starting video conferences. Conference room systems should offer both wired and wireless connection options for devices to share information onto the room screens and over video conferencing. Meeting space fees can be significant revenue generators for hotels, and spaces with smart automation will be in higher demand and command premium pricing. 

Digital Signage and Video Walls

Digital signage is an increasingly popular item in hospitality public areas. They can be used to inform and entertain in engaging ways. For example, a large flat panel monitor can display the many dining options in a hotel, their hours, food specialties, and location. Other signage can display events and locations at the hotel, assisting large groups and conferences in navigating the meeting areas. For more impactful storytelling, a video wall can enliven lobby spaces. The video wall might combine graphics and video to show off all the hotel property's best features and the most exciting things to do in Honolulu. If the hotel is part of a chain, the video wall can promote other properties in Hawaii or elsewhere. In the evening, the video wall can combine soothing graphics with matching music to set a calming ambiance for guests and visitors.
