SuiteLinq Deploys Industry-First IPVOD Solution at Philadelphia's New Palomar
Hotel


EXTON, Pa., Nov. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Palomar Hotel, Philadelphia's newest
boutique property, recently opened its doors in the heart of the city's
vibrant shopping and dining area.  Guests in all 242 rooms at the hotel, the
first location in Philadelphia by parent company Kimpton Hotels, will enjoy
state-of-the-art entertainment service from SuiteLinq, Inc.   The Exton, PA,
based provider of broadband and on-demand solutions for hospitality and
extended-stay environments is Kimpton's preferred service provider for a
variety of on-site technology and related services.   

Their SuiteVOD service delivers the latest Hollywood releases, music,
concerts, and more in standard and high definition formats.   Guests can use
the remote control to access a variety of interactive hotel information and
guest services content via an attractive, custom-branded interface that
reflects the ambience of the hotel while giving guests quick access to a
variety of entertainment features.     

At Palomar Hotel, SuiteLinq is delivering SuiteVOD via an industry-first
solution that provides Video-On-Demand content to the in-room televisions via
wireless.   Known as IP-VOD, the benefits of this development to the
hospitality industry include eliminating extensive cabling, providing greater
flexibility to deliver services anywhere, anytime throughout the property, and
minimizing disruptive retrofitting after the hotel is in operation.  It also
gives hotels the ability to deliver digital signage and other value-added
services in public areas on-demand.

SuiteLinq's President, Craig Ziegler, states that, "The flexibility and ease
of deployment that this wireless solution brings to our clients is truly
unique.   Often, delivering new digital services to hotel guests has been
complicated by technology and hardware needs.  Now, we have the freedom to
give our customers exceptional and expandable digital services with a minimal
impact on the in-room and on-site infrastructure."
