The Crowne Plaza Antwerp is a four-star deluxe hotel located in Antwerp, Belgium. Boasting 262 guest rooms and 14 conference rooms, the Crowne Plaza stands as one of the largest hotels in the most populated area in Belgium. With millions of travelers exploring its vibrant culture and history each year, Belgium maintains a thriving hospitality industry while the Crown Plaza has become a top choice hotel for hosting tourists and conferences.
To address connectivity issues and support evolving business needs, the Crowne Plaza needed an updated network infrastructure to deliver a digitally modernized guest experience. Additionally, the hotel needed scalable capacity to accommodate large numbers of business travelers and tourists. To gain a competitive advantage over other hotels in the area the Crowne Plaza also sought to offer unique, differentiated services to guests.
In partnership with Extreme, the Crowne Plaza was able to deliver a network with secure, high performing connectivity to not only drive hotel operations, but provide memorable guest experiences. Leveraging Wi-Fi 6E, the hotel eliminated downtime while offering new digital amenities such as touchless check in/out, video streaming, and voice-activated technology services. Using ExtremeCloud IQ, network administrators gained control and visibility into the network’s health and status via guest preference, network performance, and traffic insights. As a result, simplified network management and an enhanced digital experience have enabled the Crowne Plaza to refocus time and resources on its valued guests.
“ExtremeCloud IQ streamlines many of our network operations, making the job easier for everyone.”
