To elevate the guest experience even further, the property selected Samsung’s latest in hospitality-grade displays to offer crisp visuals, smart features, and reliable performance tailored to the needs of today’s connected traveler.

Why Samsung Hospitality TVs?

The HG50U701FNFXZA from Samsung’s U701F Series is engineered specifically for hotel environments, giving properties the tools they need to delight guests while simplifying operations for staff:

• 4K UHD Display: Native 3840 × 2160 resolution delivers sharp picture quality that enhances viewing of movies, streaming content, and broadcast channels.
  

• Smart Platform & Casting: Built-in support for Google Cast and Apple AirPlay means guests can seamlessly cast their favorite shows and personal content directly from smartphones or tablets.
  

• Advanced Hospitality Features: Samsung LYNK Cloud enables centralized management of channel maps, welcome screens, and firmware updates, helping streamline maintenance and ensure consistency across all units.
  

• Content Security: Pro:Idiom and LYNK DRM technologies allow secure delivery of premium cable, satellite, and video-on-demand without external set-top boxes.

These features create a more personalized and engaging television experience, aligning well with the property’s commitment to comfort and convenience.
