The Godfrey Hotel Boston chooses Innspire for in-room streaming and IPTV
In 2015 the new 242-room Godfrey Hotel Boston chose Innspire for streaming from guests’ own devices to the 55-inch TV in every room, plus hotel services on the guest’s phone.

The Godfrey Hotel Boston, the latest addition to The Godfrey Hotel luxury lifestyle hotel brand, announced today the selection of Stockholm-based InnSpire to provide leading-edge Mobile & IPTV services to all Godfrey Hotel Boston guests. In adopting this hospitality technology, The Godfrey Hotel Boston becomes the first Boston hotel to offer InnSpire services on site.
Every Godfrey Hotel Boston room will be outfitted with InnSpire’s award-winning “Guest Media Streaming” technology, allowing guests to use personal mobile devices to stream photos, videos, and music of their choice directly to the 55” HDTV in their room. Simultaneously, guests will be able to access hotel amenities such as room service, concierge information, and in-room spa services.
“We want to modernize how travellers view boutique hotels by flipping the paradigm and creating a superior experience that is completely focused on how people are living today,” says Larry Casillo, general manager of The Godfrey Hotel Boston. “In partnering with InnSpire, we now have the opportunity to create a guest experience that is authentic and luxurious, allowing access to the familiar comforts of home through advanced technology.”
InnSpire requires no work on the part of guests: upon check-in, all guests are able to use any mobile device to access hotel services over the free hotel Wi-Fi without having to download any additional apps. This simple solution enables guests to access all hotel amenities and services from anywhere in the hotel.
“We are thrilled to partner with The Godfrey Hotel Boston, and look forward to helping the hotel find new ways to make every guest’s stay even more special,” says Martin Chevalley, InnSpire CEO and Co-Founder. “InnSpire exists to help hotels better embrace their role as hosts, and to optimise operations through the use of real-time data.”
Opening late 2015, the brand new 242-room hotel, situated in the historic Amory and Blake buildings in Boston’s Downtown Crossing, will offer a George Howell Coffee Cafe, a lobby bar, a 24-hour fitness center, free, rapid Wi-Fi, and a soon-to-be-announced restaurant.
