Italian Holiday Inn Express Property to Deliver Interactive Multimedia Internet and TV Services

The Holiday Inn Express in Bergamo, Italy has chosen HNET and Anevia to deploy interactive multimedia Internet and TV services to guests. The in-room services include access to numerous broadcast channels from satellite and digital TV plus video on demand (VoD) to provide a comprehensive choice of films, music, Internet and other interactive multimedia services.

 

The new Holiday Inn Express at Bergamo is part of the InterContinental Hotels Group, which represents 7 hotel brands, 180 million stays per year, over 620,000 rooms and more than 4,200 hotels across nearly 100 countries. The Holiday Inn Express at Bergamo is located between Milan and Venice, making it a popular choice for business and leisure travelers. The hotel's main objectives are to make guests' stays as enjoyable and successful as possible. These aims include a strong focus on in-room guest services.

 

The Holiday Inn Express chose Anevia's Flamingo 660 and Toucan 100 head-end and video servers connected to HNET's middleware to deploy a full range of advanced, interactive multimedia Internet and TV services throughout the hotel. The Holiday Inn, Bergamo, is the first hotel in Italy to receive the Class A Energy Certification, so HNET and Anevia had to adhere to strict deployment specifications while ensuring delivery of a complete range of user-friendly services.
