DirecTV says approximately 20-percent of hotels offer high-definition channels in their rooms. Their service, called “DIRECTV’s Residential Experience for Hotels,” will be available to partnering hotels starting later this summer.
“We understand consumers want the same programming diversity and ease-of-use they have at home while they’re travelling, and DIRECTV’s Residential Experience for Hotels will deliver those same features and benefits right into the hotel room,” said Rod Keller, vice president of Commercial Sales for DIRECTV.
