In today’s hospitality landscape, digital experiences are no longer a luxury—they’re expected. Whether guests are checking into a boutique hotel or placing a mobile order at a quick-service restaurant, seamless technology drives satisfaction. From blazing-fast Wi-Fi to secure point-of-sale (POS) systems and ambient AV displays, IT infrastructure now plays a frontline role in operations and guest perception.
This blog outlines key infrastructure components that hospitality IT managers, network engineers and facilities teams should prioritize when planning or upgrading systems in hotels and restaurant chains.
