Guest entertainment shaped around an airport stay
Guests may choose an airport hotel for its location, but a great experience is still critical. airwave connect’s TV system upgrade gives travellers at Hampton by Hilton Aberdeen Airport an easy way and familiar way to unwind.
The Brand
With more than 3,200 properties across 46 countries and territories, Hampton by Hilton serves business and leisure travellers on a global scale. Part of the Hilton portfolio, the brand combines comfortable accommodation with a complimentary hot breakfast and focused service, placing value and consistency at the centre of its offer.
The Hotel
Located within walking distance of Aberdeen International Airport, Hampton by Hilton Aberdeen Airport occupies a convenient position for travellers visiting Scotland’s north-east corridor. The 155-bedroom hotel is approximately six miles from Aberdeen city centre, with convenient access to the A96 and the region’s principal business districts.
Aberdeen’s position as an international energy industry centre brings a substantial business travel market to the region, while the airport provides connections for visitors travelling throughout the UK and overseas. The hotel accommodates this varied guest profile with contemporary bedrooms, a fitness suite, complimentary breakfast and informal dining facilities.
The Brief
airwave connect was appointed to refresh the propoerty’s guest room television system, replacing existing displays and implementing a centrally managed information and entertainment platform.
For guests whose stay is typically brief, ease of use was a key consideration – quick, easy, familiar. For the hotel team, the priority was a low maintenance system that could be managed remotely and supported efficiently across the property.
The Technology
airwave connect supplied and installed 157 55-inch Samsung BU800 UHD hospitality televisions, bringing ultra-high-definition entertainment to guest rooms throughout the property.
Powered by Uniguest Hub, the televisions provide a consistent, hotel-branded viewing experience through a centrally managed, cloud-based platform.
An on-screen invitation allows guests to scan a QR code with their mobile device to join Hilton Honors. This makes it easy to access the programme’s benefits, while helping Hilton strengthen guest loyalty and encourage repeat stays across its portfolio.
Behind the scenes, Uniguest Hub’s web-based content management system allows information, screen layouts, branding and menus to be updated remotely, maintaining a consistent interface throughout the hotel – without the need to configure individual televisions. Its cloud-based architecture also reduces reliance on dedicated on-site servers.
For Hampton by Hilton Aberdeen Airport, this supports a straightforward entertainment experience for guests, with centralised control that simplifies administration and allows the interface to evolve with the hotel’s requirements.
