High tech is in - the Hotels of the future are here to stay

With the rebound in tourism, hotels worldwide are looking at ways to streamline and bring in new technologies to make guest stays more comfortable and personalized. From music device docking stations to super-smooth self check-in's, hotels are going all out to ensure that guest needs are met in the easiest, most flawless way possible (a difficult task by any means, esp. when it comes to technology).

"Some chains like Starwood's (Research) Sheraton hotels have installed kiosks that allow guests to swipe their credit card, get a room key in minutes, and bypass the front desk altogether.
Intercontinental's (Research) Holiday Inn chain is testing its "eCheck" system in Duluth, Ga., that allows guests to print boarding passes as they head out for the airport."
