Gone are the days where hotel Wi-Fi was questionable and
phones were used to call room service. These 10 hotels are pioneering future-forward
technology that offer us a glimpse into a new generation of lodging. Here are a
few things you can start saying good-bye to:
Do-Not-Disturb Signs:
The Hotel 1000 (Seattle) offers silent, infrared doorbells that
detect body heat in a room. This signals to housekeeping whether the room is
empty and also gives you the option of pressing a do-not-disturb button when
you leave.
Automated Wake-Up
Calls: Hotels like the Aria Resort
& Casino (Las Vegas) has guestrooms that allow you to customize the
lighting, temperature, and music that you would like to wake up to in the
morning. The room has automated drapes, lights, and a TV that turns on as you
enter, and you can customize their functionality throughout your stay.
Boring Bathrooms: The
Hotel Bel-Air includes heated
floors, an in-mirror LED television, and the Neorest 600, a toilet that has a
control panel for flushing, seat heating, and deodorizing.
Altitude Sickness: Stay
at the Scarp Ridge Lodge (Crested
Butte, CO) for your ski trip, and be provided with additional oxygen to
customize the altitude to whatever you are used to.
Generic Décor: At
citizenM Times Square (New York),
use your electronic, handheld mood pad to design your space with lighting,
music, digital art, window blinds, mood-enhanced wake-up calls, and more from
the comfort of your bed.
