Saturn Communication’s Connectvision digital signage software has been installed at the new Sofitel London Heathrow on Terminal 5 Hotel. The building is the largest hotel to be built inside the M25 before the 2012 Olympics, and includes a range of meeting rooms including the Arora Suite which can hold up to 1,700 guests and 117-tiered seat theatre within a dedicated conference centre.
The hotel has installed over 100 LCD screens ranging from small LCDs in the hotel lifts to mid-sized screens outside meeting rooms, and in the gym and toilets. Larger screens feature in the link bridge between Terminal 5 and the hotel conference reception area and meeting rooms.
Connectvision is centrally managed within the hotel’s sales and marketing business. Screen content is zoned and scheduled to create an integrated communications environment, covering news media through to event and meeting scheduling and corporate branding as well as wayfinding.
Connectvision is fully integrated within the hotel’s Delphi Meetings and Events Management System, enabling Sofitel London Heathrow staff to offer companies the opportunity to use Connectvision’s scheduling and zoning features.
As delegates enter the dedicated conference centre entrance they can see details of their meeting and events on overhead LCD screens in the reception area. Moving into the conference centre they are met by a Connectvision-powered wayfinding screen indicating how they can get to their meeting room. Adjacent to the entrance door for each of the 45 meeting rooms is a digital screen giving details of the company, meeting topic and start – end times.
