Wifirst official partner of The Ascott Limited in Europe
Wifirst has been selected by The Ascott Limited to support its brands The Crest Collection and Citadines in Europe with digital connectivity. The Ascott Limited is one of the world's leading operators of hotel residences. Driven by a constant desire to modernize its hotel portfolio, The Ascott Limited chose Wifirst (Bolloré Group), the first "WiFi as a Service" platform to provide a connectivity base for its establishments.
The Wifirst solution is now deployed in all the group's establishments in Europe, guaranteeing free high-speed WiFi accessible everywhere in rooms, suites, apartments, lobbies and all common areas. Wifirst now provides WiFi coverage for over 5,000 rooms and apartments in 41 hotels and apart'hotels, all connected to fiber optics. These include the prestigious hotels The Cavendish London, La Clef Tour Eiffel and La Clef Louvre Paris.
A European foothold for Wifirst
This partnership has enabled Wifirst to demonstrate, once again, its ability to offer an agile solution adapted to all hotel models, beyond the French territory. Wifirst's London office interacted with The Ascott Limited (headquartered in Singapore) to connect hotels and apart'hotels in France, Germany, Belgium, Spain and the UK.
A foundation for all digital services
Guillaume Renaudin, IT Director Europe at The Ascott Limited, comments:
We were won over by the Wifirst solution, which gives our establishments a genuine technical foundation on which to build all their digital services. In addition to providing WiFi access for guests, Wifirst also enables staff to connect securely to a dedicated WiFi network.
Focus on the Wifirst promise at Citadines
Since acquiring 100% of Citadines in 2004, Singapore-based group The Ascott Limited has been constantly modernizing and renovating its urban residences to turn them into connected lifestyle establishments. Wifirst's promise for the Citadines brand is "A connection to feel at home everywhere". Thanks to Wifirst's intuitive connection path, customers can connect "just like at home" in just one click, and won't experience any untimely disconnections during their stay.
