Hotel Casting: Guests Bring Their Own Streaming to the Room TV
2 min read

What's New

HotelSmarters launches the Hotel Casting solution, letting guests cast content from their own phones and laptops to the in-room TV, with support for Chromecast and personal streaming accounts on apps like YouTube and Disney+.

What It Does

  • Screen mirroring — guests can mirror their personal phone or laptop screen directly to the in-room TV.
  • Personal streaming account login — guests can log into their own accounts on apps like Netflix, YouTube, and Disney+ and watch their own profiles and watchlists on the room TV, rather than a shared hotel login.
  • Chromecast support — casting works the same familiar way guests already use it at home, with no new app or setup process to learn.
  • Privacy protection — built-in safeguards prevent cross-room content leakage, so one guest's casting session never reaches another room's TV.

Why It Matters

Guests get their own entertainment, on their own accounts, on a bigger screen — without hunting for the right cable or app.

Hotels get a casting solution that runs on the existing Hotel WiFi and Hotel Interactive TV foundation already in place, and the privacy safeguards mean guests can cast personal accounts with confidence that their session stays in their room.
