PPDS has announced the installation of 800 hotel TVs, digital signage, and dvLED walls inside Finland’s business hotel complex, the Clarion Hotel Helsinki Airport.
Located immediately outside Vantaa Airport’s main terminal, the 12-floor multi-purpose Clarion Hotel Helsinki Airport offers 505 rooms, a scenic rooftop cocktail bar, an à la carte restaurant, a gym, and heated outdoor pool.
The Clarion Hotel Helsinki Airport also features a 21 room conference centre and plush 1,050 capacity ballroom, making it suitable for local and international meetings, exhibitions, events, and more.
The hotel’s owners, Strawberry Hotels – one of the largest hotel groups in the Nordics with over 240 properties – turned to PPDS to support the digital experience for its hotel guests, while putting the complex on the global map for its advanced and interactive conferencing capabilities.
Working together with Speeron, Smart Media Solutions, and Audico Systems, the project was completed on time and on budget, ahead of the hotel’s grand opening.
778 Google Cast integrated Philips MediaSuite 6214 UHD TVs – including 50-in, 65-in, and 75-in size variants – were installed inside all guest rooms and suites, with screen sizes and number of units selected and placed based on room sizes and layouts.
Speeron’s innovative NEXT guest communication portal was installed to provide guests with nearly instant access to entertainment options such as TV channels, Netflix, and other casting apps for a complete multimedia experience.
Aligned with Strawberry Hotel’s sustainability objectives, which have seen all its properties become ISO 14001 certified, all Philips MediaSuite TVs are also designed to receive regular Android updates for the latest features and functionalities, helping to extend the lifetime of their investment and creating consistent experiences in every room.
