Oct 17, 2017, 01:00 ET
LONDON, Oct. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- INTERNATIONAL HOTEL SHOW -- SONIFI Solutions, Inc. today announced that it has partnered with Airwave Europe Ltd. as a channel partner in Europe for its streaming solution, STAYCAST™ powered by Chromecast. The announcement was made at the International Hotel Show in London, where Airwave is exhibiting.
SONIFI's STAYCAST™ powered by Chromecast is the ultimate hospitality streaming experience. Connecting seamlessly to a hotel's existing TV infrastructure, STAYCAST allows guests to stream their own content onto the room's television, using their own portable device as the control. Installed in over 50,000 rooms, STAYCAST's game-changing solution allows guests access to favorite apps such as Netflix, BBC iPlayer and YouTube on the in-room TV.
"The huge growth of portable device ownership has increased the ways guests can watch their own content," said Airwave Product Development Director Julian Arnold. "However, for the optimum experience, content such as movies and TV programs is best watched in high definition on a big screen. STAYCAST provides a seamless and intuitive option to do just that."
"With this partnership, SONIFI is able to extend our reach into Europe and bring memorable guest experiences to travelers and hoteliers in the U.K., France, Germany, and several other territories served by Airwave," said Roy Kosuge, SVP of Business Development for SONIFI Solutions, Inc. "We look forward to continuing to grow alongside our partner, Airwave, and to announcing other international expansion efforts before the end of the year."
Guest benefits of STAYCAST include the ability to stream securely to the big screen, just like at home; 1000+ apps available to stream; and no app login required via the TV.
Hotel benefits include integration with property's existing system; wired and wireless configurations; limited in-room hardware; and access to advanced reporting and monitoring data.
