It also reflects the trust our thousands of hotel customers place in us to drive revenue growth and ensure smooth operations.”

The IDC MarketScape evaluation assessed vendors on integration and partnerships, user experience, innovation, data reporting, guest engagement, flexibility, and scalability. The study noted that OPERA Cloud supports hotels from midscale to luxury and resort segments, offering customizable workflows, role-based personalization, and functionality to ensure smooth guest experiences from check-in to checkout.

Dorothy Creamer, Senior Research Manager, IDC, said, “Oracle demonstrates a strong strategy to help hoteliers centralize operations while maintaining accessibility and enterprise-grade security.”

From the moment guests step into Marriott Vashi’s lift lobby, they are greeted by a carefully orchestrated audio-visual environment. Strategically placed ceiling speakers set a warm, inviting tone, while dynamic signage displays deliver real-time updates and brand messaging. Centralized AV racks ensure all systems operate flawlessly, reflecting Marriott’s commitment to sophistication and reliability.

Enhancing Every Space – Tailored to Function & Mood

Whether it’s the soothing ambient music in the restaurant, high-brightness LED walls in the ballroom, or precision audio in the pre-function area, EYTE’s designs adapt to the unique atmosphere of each zone. Meeting rooms are equipped with dual high-resolution displays, cable cubbies for clutter-free connectivity, and beamforming microphones for crystal-clear hybrid conferences. Even the gym, spa, and terrace pool benefit from thoughtful technology integration – from motivational soundscapes to weather-resistant outdoor speakers.

Smart Solutions for Modern Hospitality
