Airtime and Hoteza Expand In-Room TV Entertainment Partnership to Over 7,000 Hotel Rooms Worldwide
Airtime and Hoteza are expanding their partnership, delivering premium in-room TV entertainment to over 7,000 hotel rooms worldwide. The integration transforms hotel TVs into digital hubs that combine movies, hotel services, and guest communication, enhancing the overall guest experience and supporting hospitality's digital transformation.
Airtime: Movies & More and Hoteza are continuing to expand their collaboration across the hospitality sector. Today, more than 7,000 hotel rooms worldwide feature premium in-room TV entertainment powered by Airtime through the Hoteza Guest Journey Platform.
The milestone reflects a broader shift across hotels globally. As guest expectations evolve, properties are investing in digital platforms that enhance the in-room stay experience, not just at reception or through mobile services. Entertainment delivered through hotel TV systems has become an important part of that transformation.
Hoteza provides hospitality technology solutions to more than 1,000 hotels worldwide, supporting the entire digital guest journey. Its ecosystem includes IPTV, Guest App, in-room tablets, mobile check-in, hotel internet infrastructure, and digital reception services.
In this environment, Hoteza TV serves as a key guest interface, transforming traditional television into a multifunctional platform that integrates entertainment, hotel services, and communication tools.
The integration with Airtime allows hotels using Hoteza TV to deliver a rich catalogue of films and curated programming directly on the guestroom screen. Guests can access blockbuster movies, lifestyle programming, concerts and theatre performances, wellness content, and live international news channels through a single interface designed for hotel environments.
Instead of relying solely on traditional broadcast television, hotels can now offer an experience closer to a premium streaming service available in-room.
In-Room TV as the Center of the Guestroom Experience
Even in the age of smartphones and tablets, the television remains the most frequently used device in a hotel room. Travelers may bring their personal streaming subscriptions, but the hotel TV continues to offer the largest and most comfortable screen available during their stay.
For hotel operators, that screen represents a powerful touchpoint.
Hoteza TV was designed for this role. The platform turns the guestroom television into a digital hub where entertainment and hotel services coexist. From the TV interface, guests can explore a movie library, watch live television channels, browse wellness or lifestyle content, and access hotel information.
Property services can also be presented through the same screen. Guests can discover restaurants, spa offerings, or other amenities without leaving the TV interface.
The system integrates with the wider Hoteza ecosystem, allowing the television to connect to other digital services, such as guest messaging, service requests, and mobile experiences, through the Hoteza Guest App.
For hotel teams, the platform offers practical operational advantages. Content can be updated centrally, brand messaging managed across properties, and information localized for different markets or guest profiles.
With Airtime integrated into the system, the entertainment component of Hoteza TV expands significantly, giving hotels access to a large catalogue of licensed premium content.
Premium Studio Content for Hotel Guests
Airtime’s entertainment catalogue includes titles from major Hollywood studios, among them Disney, 20th Century Studios, Universal, and Paramount. The library spans a wide range of genres, from recent releases to well-known classics.
The goal is to offer something for every type of traveler.
Families can enjoy animated and family-friendly films. Business travelers may prefer light entertainment after a day of meetings, while leisure guests often look for blockbuster titles or popular movie franchises.
Beyond studio films, Airtime also provides curated programming categories designed specifically for hospitality audiences. These include:
Lifestyle and wellness programming
Concerts and theatre productions
Cultural content
International news channels from multiple regions
This variety helps hotels serve guests with different interests, travel purposes, and cultural backgrounds.
All content is delivered in a format tailored for hospitality environments. Licensing agreements, regional distribution rights, and technical compatibility are handled within the platform, allowing hotels to offer premium content without managing the complexity of media distribution.
From the guest’s perspective, the process remains simple: open the TV interface, browse the entertainment catalogue, and start watching.
Scaling Across a Global Hotel Network
The collaboration between Airtime and Hoteza has grown steadily as more hotels adopt digital guestroom platforms.
Today, the integrated solution is installed in over 7,000 hotel rooms globally, with deployments across Europe and additional international markets. The number continues to increase as new properties join the Hoteza ecosystem.
Hoteza’s presence in more than 1,000 hotels worldwide provides a strong foundation for further expansion. The company works with independent hotels, luxury resorts, and international hospitality groups seeking to modernize the technology across their properties.
One of the advantages of the Hoteza platform is the way its products operate as a connected ecosystem rather than as separate tools. IPTV, guest apps, digital reception services, and internet infrastructure all work together within the same environment.
Within that structure, Hoteza TV becomes one of the most visible guest touchpoints, while integrations such as Airtime enhance the content available through the system.
The result is a guestroom experience that combines entertainment, hotel communication, and digital services on a single screen.
Deployment in Iconic Hospitality Properties
Recent deployments highlight how the Airtime and Hoteza partnership is being adopted by high-profile hospitality destinations.
One of the latest properties to introduce the solution is Adare Manor in Ireland, an internationally recognized luxury resort celebrated for its historic architecture and exceptional guest experience. The hotel has recently implemented the platform across its guest rooms, giving visitors access to Airtime’s complete movie library during their stay.
Guests can browse and watch films directly through the Hoteza TV interface, turning the in-room television into a private cinema experience.
For luxury properties such as Adare Manor, in-room entertainment forms part of the broader guest journey. Visitors often spend quiet evenings in their rooms after dining, enjoying the spa, or exploring the surrounding estate. A curated film library available on demand complements those moments.
The platform also removes the need for guests to sign in to personal streaming accounts or connect external devices to the television. Everything is accessible through the hotel’s own interface.
Flexible Entertainment for Seasonal Resorts
Not all hospitality destinations operate year-round. Ski resorts, mountain hotels, and certain leisure destinations welcome guests primarily during specific seasons.
For these properties, technology investments must remain flexible.
Airtime addresses this challenge through a seasonal pricing model, allowing hotels to activate entertainment services during their operating periods. This approach ensures that properties can offer premium in-room content while maintaining cost efficiency during the off-season.
The model has recently been introduced at Rosewood Courchevel Le Jardin Alpin, a luxury alpine hotel located in one of Europe’s most prestigious ski destinations.
The property welcomes international guests throughout the winter months, when visitors travel to Courchevel for skiing and other winter activities.
By combining Hoteza TV with Airtime’s seasonal model, the hotel can offer a full movie catalogue throughout the ski season while avoiding unnecessary operational costs during periods when the hotel is closed.
For guests returning to their rooms after a day on the slopes, access to a large film library provides a relaxed way to end the evening.
The Role of Digital Platforms in Modern Hospitality
The growth of the Airtime–Hoteza partnership reflects a wider evolution within hospitality technology.
Hotels are increasingly replacing isolated systems with integrated digital platforms that support the entire guest journey. Instead of managing separate tools for communication, entertainment, internet access, and service requests, properties are adopting unified ecosystems.
Digital solutions now support many stages of the guest experience, including:
Mobile check-in and digital registration
Internet access management
In-room entertainment systems
Digital concierge and service requests
Hoteza’s technology ecosystem was designed around this integrated model. By combining solutions such as Hoteza Guest App, Hoteza TV, mobile check-in tools, hotel internet infrastructure, and digital reception, hotels can create a connected environment that simplifies both operations and guest interactions.
Within that ecosystem, the in-room television remains an important interface.
Unlike personal devices, the television is already available in every room and requires no installation or setup on the guest's part. With the right software platform, it becomes an efficient channel for delivering both entertainment and hotel information.
The addition of premium content providers such as Airtime strengthens the value of that channel.
Enhancing the Guest Experience Through Content
Entertainment has always been part of the hotel experience, but expectations have changed.
Travelers today are accustomed to streaming services and on-demand libraries at home. When they arrive at a hotel, they often expect a similar level of convenience.
A modern in-room TV platform helps meet those expectations. Guests can relax with a film after a day of meetings or sightseeing, follow international news, or discover cultural programming.
For international travelers, familiar entertainment can also provide comfort while staying abroad.
Families benefit as well. Children may watch animated films or family content while parents unwind or plan the next day’s activities.
By offering a curated entertainment catalogue rather than relying solely on broadcast channels, hotels can create a more engaging, contemporary guestroom experience.
Looking Ahead
Hotels continue to modernize their digital infrastructure, and in-room entertainment is evolving along with it. The integration of content platforms with guest experience technology is becoming increasingly common as properties seek new ways to enhance the guest experience.
The milestone of 7,000 connected hotel rooms marks another step in the development of the Airtime-Hoteza partnership.
With new deployments across Europe and other regions, the collaboration continues to introduce premium entertainment to hotels using the Hoteza platform.
By combining Hoteza’s guest journey technology with Airtime’s film and entertainment catalogue, hotels gain a flexible solution that enhances in-room TV and supports broader digital transformation across the property.
The television in the guestroom is no longer just a broadcast device. It is becoming a digital touchpoint where entertainment, hotel services, and guest communication converge.
