Stockholm, Sweden (2015-02-19) – The Grand Hôtel, Stockholm’s most prestigious hotel, has partnered with InnSpire, the interactive hospitality provider from Sweden, to add cutting-edge technology to the Grand Hôtel experience. With InnSpire’s app-less technology, every guest can access hotel services from anywhere in the hotel using their own smartphone, tablet or laptop. The televisions in the rooms are now smart and connected too, and with InnSpire’s Guest Media Streaming, guests can wirelessly play their own videos, music or other content on the TV in their room.
Grand Hôtel’s CEO Pia Djupmark says: “At the Grand Hôtel we strive to ensure that our guests experience the best of everything. Today’s traveller expects a seamless digital experience. Our partnership with InnSpire means our guests can easily access our services from anywhere in the hotel and feel more at home because they can play their own music or films when enjoying their room.”
InnSpire pioneered the shift away from hotels needing to build their own app or host heavy servers, reducing costs while increasing guests’ interaction with the hotel. By logging on to the hotel’s Wi-Fi, guests can stream photos, videos or music of their choice from their own devices directly to the TV in their room.
Martin Chevalley, CEO and co-founder of InnSpire, adds: “We are very proud to partner with such an iconic brand as the Grand Hôtel in our home city of Stockholm. Our motto is to help hotels entertain better, sell more and to analyse and optimise the hotel’s operations [with] the real-time data we collect. We ensure they can know how, where and when their guests take advantage of the hotel’s services. Based on this information, hotels can optimise their offers to their customers’ needs. We’re delighted that Grand Hôtel, Stockholm has seen the power and potential of InnSpire to not only meet their high standards but to raise them even higher for their guests.”
