Guest-Tek Interactive Entertainment Ltd. announced that it has received a purchase order from PCH Hotels and Resorts (PCH) to provide a comprehensive solution for high-definition video on demand (VOD) and free-to-guest television (FTG), IP telephony, and high-speed Internet access (HSIA) service at the Renaissance Montgomery Hotel and Spa at the Convention Center in Alabama.
The solution selected for the Renaissance Hotel will deliver an unrivaled in-room guest experience. The OneView Media entertainment solution will give guests access to over 32 digital high-definition FTG television channels, five times that of any other Renaissance operating today. The high-definition VOD system provides guests first-run Hollywood titles in high definition and the ability to surf the Web.
At the Renaissance Montgomery Hotel and Spa, PCH will showcase and promote the spa and golf courses through the interactive menu system presented to guests on the television, where guests will have the ability to browse and book golf times and spa appointments simply using the TV remote control. The hotel is adjacent to the Montgomery Convention Center and itself holds 103,000 sqft of state-of-the-art meeting space, completely covered by Guest-Tek’s wired and wireless HSIA solution.
"It is always rewarding to work with partners who share our vision, PCH has taken a leadership role in applying the latest technologies to create an emotional impact with their guests,” said Arnon Levy, Guest-Tek's CEO. “This project is an example of the growing demand from hotel owners and operators for a well designed technology platform that puts the control of the guest experience back in the hotelier’s hands, allowing them to deliver a suite of services at least on par with what their guests have in their homes.”
