Every time Apple introduces a new technology, sometimes we see how it quickly becomes popular, such as ARKit, of which we have already seen a multitude of possibilities created by developers, or it takes a while to implement and reach the end user, already either through other companies or directly through HomeKit-type products.
The Red Lion Hotels Corporation (RLHC) chain has just announced that it has initiated a plan so that Apple devices, the iPhone and Apple TV mainly become tools used on a day-to-day basis when accessing both rooms as to enjoy your own content.
The Red Lion hotel chain will begin this year to install an Apple TV in every room of your hotels, so that users can access the content offered by DirectTV and the content created by RLHC, such as concerts held at its facilities, cultural offers in the city, excursions ... Initially and after seeing the content they want to offer, It seems that the hotel chain wants to waste money, since using this device for the same thing that the hotel video system is currently used seems absurd no matter where you look, unless it allows users to configure their accounts Netflix, HBO temporarily during your stay.
In addition, the Hello Rewards application, an application to manage the rewards that the company offers to the most loyal users, is also being updated to manage the account and allow the iPhone to be configured as a method to access the rooms in addition to allowing to redeem rewards for loyalty of its users. Red Lion Hotel Corporation, has reached an agreement with Apple to equip your employees with an Apple Watch, so that owners who want to take their vehicle out of the garage can do so directly from the room without having to go down to reception and request it.
