The progressive journey of telecommunication

Join Matrix on a brief journey through history as we explore how telecommunications have advanced over time to support and enhance the hospitality sector:

• Early days: In the earlier days, hotels utilised telegraph services for reservations and various customer-related needs. Subsequently, switchboard operators played a crucial role in connecting guests to their desired rooms or services.
• The emergence of the Internet: The emergence of the Internet has empowered guests to maintain connectivity with their loved ones from the comfort of their hotel rooms, even during their travels.
• Internet of Things: The seamless integration with the Internet of Things has truly revolutionised the guest experience. In current times, guests can effortlessly secure their reservations without the need for traditional phone calls. From convenient check-in procedures and timings to immersive visualisations of their desired rooms or suites through captivating photos, the convergence of mobile technology and the Internet of Things has ushered in an era where hotels redefine the boundaries of guest interaction.
• Cloud-based services: Cloud-based services have emerged as a transformative tool for the hotel industry, enabling seamless access and efficient management of inventory data of guests. This technological breakthrough has revolutionised customer relations, empowering the industry to enhance and build exceptional guest experiences.
• Smart rooms: Smart rooms, equipped with cutting-edge technology, set a new standard for enhanced user experiences. From voice-controlled assistants to IoT-enabled amenities, these spaces seamlessly cater to guests' needs. With automated lighting, temperature controls, and interactive interfaces, smart rooms offer a perfect blend of luxury and convenience.

Through successive advancements, telecommunication has facilitated the hotel industry in enhancing guest experiences, optimising operations, and maintaining competitiveness.
