Roomlinx Interactive TV Platform Proven Successful as Many Repeat Guests Request Roomlinx Rooms
DENVER, Feb. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Roomlinx, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: RMLX), the leading supplier of in-room Interactive TV (iTV) for the hospitality industry, today announced that its iTV platform has been proven to increase occupancy rates and revenue for the Sleep Inn & Suites in Minot, ND.
"Despite the challenging economy this past year, our monthly average occupancy numbers are actually up," said Terry Alexander, General Manager at Sleep Inn. "We attribute a significant portion of this success to Roomlinx. About 60 percent of our guests are repeat visitors and many of them request Roomlinx rooms. About half of our new guests tell us they chose our property based on a recommendation of our enhanced in-room media."
Roomlinx iTV provides Sleep Inn guests with in-room access, through a flat-panel HD LCD television, to the most comprehensive set of interactive services available, including:
- HD Hollywood and specialty movies
- High speed Internet access
- World radio
- Local and worldwide news
- Weather
- iPod & MP3 player compatible
- Sports updates
- Shopping
- Business productivity tools
- Concierge assistance
- Games and information about hotel facilities and local businesses including restaurants, attractions, shopping, services and maps
Sleep Inn chose Roomlinx because it offered the most advanced technology, flexibility, ease of use and widest variety of options. The Roomlinx system enabled them to tailor an in-room media offering that fits perfectly with the hotel's brand and clearly differentiates the property from their competition.
Another key factor in Sleep Inn's selection of the Roomlinx system was its unique in-room advertising capability. Sleep Inn uses the in-room ads to promote its own onsite facilities and also generates significant incremental revenue via local attractions and businesses, as well as national restaurant and retail chains that purchase the ad space. This allows those local and national businesses direct access to hotel guests.
"The successful results of our system at Sleep Inn, and the clear benefits it delivers in the form of increased revenues, occupancy rates and guest satisfaction, validates our value proposition," said Mike Wasik, CEO of Roomlinx, Inc. "We are focused on accelerating our growth by applying the same winning formula to replicate that success as widely and as rapidly as possible."
