Philips MediaSuite TVs with integrated Google Cast installed at The Europe Hotel and Resort in Ireland

The Europe Hotel and Resort, a 5-star retreat in Killarney, Ireland, has selected PPDS’ Philips MediaSuite TVs with Google Cast to deliver tailored entertainment and seamless one touch access to favourite streaming platforms inside its 180 newly upgraded guest rooms and suites.

With a diverse customer base, each accustomed to their own preferences around how and when they choose to access their favourite media content - whether linear (terrestrial), catch up or streaming via an account - the hotel owners sought a future ready TV solution that could be tailored around the unique needs of every guest.

To achieve this, the team at The Europe Hotel and Resort turned to international hospitality technology integration specialist VDA Telkonet who specified 65’’ Philips MediaSuite TVs for the upgrade program. Primed for integration with the hotel’s existing technology architecture, the TVs fit the The Europe Hotel and Resort’s IPTV network and PMS, delivering on the personalised welcome and experience the team desired for its guests.

The Philips MediaSuite TVs also answered the brief on both size and functionality, bringing integrated Google Cast with no external hardware required, allowing guests to control their viewing experiences by accessing content via their preferred streaming accounts - such as Amazon Prime, Apple TV+, YouTube and more - on their phone.

In addition, MediaSuite TVs provide guests with access to the Google Play store and its apps, catering to every guest’s needs using the TV to access local area information, weather, news, games, music, and more. Philips MediaSuite TVs can receive regular software updates, allowing the hotel to benefit from latest features and functionality.

“One of the things we were looking for, first and foremost, was a larger TV with enhanced features, particularly the built-in casting facility”, says Michael Brennan, Managing Director at The Europe Hotel and Resort. “The MediaSuite TVs delivered on everything we needed for our guests: quality of picture, a new guest information system, built-in casting, and links to our property management system, as well.”
