Grand Millennium Dubai is among the first hotels in the MENA Region to install Locatel’s Eclipse Connected TV system, powered by Samsung H.Browser to offer guests smart in-room entertainment.

Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., a global firm specialising in digital media and digital convergence technologies and Locatel, an IT and entertainment systems provider for hospitality businesses, recently linked up to offer an interactive TV system.

Making the announcement, Mr Peter Mansourian, General Manager, Grand Millennium Dubai, said: “With the help of this innovative technology, Grand Millennium Dubai will offer state-of-the-art guest entertainment solutions by combining Locatel software, which is designed especially for the hospitality sector and Samsung H.Browser which eliminates the need for an external set-top box.

“The H.Browser, powered by Locatel’s Eclipse Connected TV System, offers guests direct access to a full range of services and a premium interactive experience on Samsung’s Smart Hospitality Display, smartphones and tablets. Guests will also enjoy a wide range of content, which includes TV channels, Video on Demand (VOD), radio, games, city information and hotel services, using an easy-to-navigate interface with fast response time”.

The 343-room hotel just off Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai also offers advanced meeting technology and wifi in its luxury hotel cars.
