DOHA: Ooredoo has introduced a range of solutions targeting Qatar’s hospitality sector, enabling hotels and travel operators to deploy the latest technology to deliver the best possible visitor experience.
At a special meeting at Ooredoo’s HQ1 Tower in West Bay, senior hoteliers and tourism chiefs met Ooredoo experts to review ‘Smart Hospitality’ innovations at Ooredoo’s OASIS Lab, a facility that enables companies to try out and demonstrate new solutions.
During the visit, industry representatives were able to see a range of solutions tailored to the hospitality sector, including next generation IPTV, smart Wi-Fi, Ooredoo Cloud Voice and Collaboration Suite, Ooredoo Web Cloud Security and Push-to-Talk, all delivered over Ooredoo’s network.
Waleed Al Sayed, Chief Operating Officer, Ooredoo, said, “The hospitality sector is one of the key pillars of Qatar’s dynamic economy, and is an area where communications technology can make a huge impact. Ooredoo supports many of Qatar’s leading hotels with solutions to provide the fastest in-room Wi-Fi as well as an incredible range of entertainment over fibre. The new generation of ‘Smart Hospitality’ solutions will enable companies to deliver the best guest experience, and help them to more effectively manage communication costs and energy use.”
In recent years, customer expectations of the guest experience have changed. With the rapid growth of mobile devices, Wi-Fi, and video on-demand, guests now arrive expecting to enjoy the same always-on, always-connected experiences they have at home, at work, and on the go.
To meet these needs, Ooredoo has launched a range of ‘Smart Hospitality’ solutions, which combine wireless, security, communications, and collaboration technologies. These solutions enable hotels to create new guest experiences, simplify the hotel network, lower IT costs on property, centralise business data for better analytics and drive global growth without requiring a lot of IT experience on-site.
Ooredoo has signed agreements with leading hotels in recent months, including agreements to provide high-speed Fibre Internet and multi-screen next generation television sets in every room.
