77. Nest thermostats
"Hotels were always better than your
house," Starwood Global Brand Leader
Brian McGuiness told , "until
people started doing great things to
their houses and hotels needed to
catch up." That's what kicked off the
boutique hotel craze years ago, he says,
and now, several years later, it's also
what's kicking off the smart hotel craze.
A prime example: Nest thermostats in guest rooms, the first of several
connected home innovations that are sure to be installed across brands.
What Starwood is trying to create, says McGuiness, is "an entirely
hands-free hotel room experience
Hotel Future facilities
78. RFID night lights
Small stickers embedded with RFID
sensors will soon pop up in Aloft hotels
around the country, but you'll never see
them: they'll be hidden under the carpet
near your bed. Triggered by movement and
weight, these stickers will sense when you
wake up in the middle of the night and
trigger the night light in the bathroom.
Robot Butlers
Aloft has been testing the so-called "Botlr"
at its Cupertino and Silicon Valley properties
since last August. Soon, the digitized butler
will be ready for the national spotlight. Put
in a request for service via your SPG
app—more towels, for instance—and
housekeeping will stash your items in the
Botlr's internal compartment before dispatching him to your room
79. Smart mirrors
Spotted in a model Four Points room:
a smart mirror embedded with a
customized touchscreen display populated
with things like your email, Twitter feed,
sports scores, or headlines. Designed to
replace the full-length mirrors in rooms,
these would allow you to cross a few things
off your to-do list while brushing your teeth.
Personalized room settings
Starwood has long kept tabs on its guest
preferences. Soon, you'll be able to tell
the SPG app your preferred temperature
and lighting settings (do you prefer white
light? Amber tones?) so that any room is
calibrated to your specifications.
80. Connected room service carts
The same RFID stickers that trigger your
night-light will also be attached to room
service carts. The big idea: when a cart is
left outside a guest room, a sticker hidden
near the door will sense the room service
cart and alert housekeeping to clear away
the mess. No more unsightly leftovers cluttering the hallway, at last.
Smart appliances
On the heels of those Nest thermostats
will come other smart appliances, like coffee
makers that start brewing your morning
cup automatically. Thanks to a small converter,
basically any appliance in a Starwood room can
be made "smart" and controlled through the
SPG app.
81. seamless streaming
Aloft's Cupertino property is a natural
testing ground for Apple technologies
of all kinds, and the hotel has been
piloting Apple TV for years now. Now,
Starwood is also testing Kindle's rival
service to see which will win the battle.
Oculus rift rentals
Unsure whether you really want to
go skydiving or zip lining?
Loaner
units of the virtual reality system
Oculus Rift might help you decide.
82. Virtual reality bike rides
Another potential application of VR
technology? Augmented workouts.
Starwood is creating dedicated footage
to make you feel like you're bike riding
through the Spanish countryside or
Frankfurt when in fact, you've never
left the hotel gym.
Beautiful Solar Panels
Element hotels are working on bespoke
solar canopies that incorporate pretty
solar energy tiles. And it’s not just about
powering your room—at the trial property
in Dallas, guests can sit under the solar
panel canopy and charge their devices
with the power of the sun
