Challenge

As a property with a reputation for providing 5-star guest service, Hotel St. Michel leadership sought to maintain their competitive edge by catering to growing guest expectations for access to their own personalized entertainment. Identifying several potential options to address this need, the hotel specifically aimed to adopt a guest streaming solution that represented the industry’s most advanced capabilities in ensuring personalization flexibility and user-friendly interaction.

The property ultimately selected BeyondTV GuestCast due to its full compatibility with virtually any mobile-based streaming app that a guest may wish to access on guestroom televisions. Able to cast content from personal devices via a streamlined registration process that can be as simple as scanning a QR code, guests using BeyondTV GuestCast at the property can also look forward to effortlessly accessing their own streaming subscriptions without any need for hotel staff assistance.

“It’s no question that many hotels are now equipped with streaming solutions to address modern guest entertainment trends, so to stay competitive we not only needed to implement our own streaming services but also wanted to adopt a platform that stands out in its ability to exceed guest expectations,… HIS with BeyondTV GuestCast met our criteria precisely and since installation, we have not received one complaint from guests or any requests for troubleshooting assistance.”
