WDW Swan and Dolphin Hotel Upgrades Wi-Fi
January 19, 2016
The Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotel has become among the first convention hotels in the country to permanently introduce the latest in Wi-Fi technology in its convention space. The upgrade offers groups fast and reliable Internet service capable of handling the largest and most bandwidth-demanding groups with ease.
The new technology, referred to as high-density Wi-Fi, was pioneered at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotel by event Internet service provider and hotel partner XpoNet. After successful tests among some of the world’s leading technology groups, the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotel has permanently installed the system, making it available to groups of all sizes. With the installation, the hotel becomes the largest convention hotel in Florida to implement this technology.
The new high-density Wi-Fi system is capable of providing groups of more than 15,000 attendees with strong, fast and, perhaps most important, reliable Internet service. A full backup system employs the use of multiple Internet providers so any outages from one particular provider will go unnoticed by attendees.
“Streaming broadcasts of keynote speeches, video conferencing and multiple personal Internet devices used by every attendee has made the need for a fast and smooth Internet an absolute must among today’s meeting planners,” said Gino Marasco, Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotel director of sales and marketing. “With this new technology any planner can be comfortable knowing that the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin can comfortably meet their group’s digital needs.”
Ideally located in the heart of Walt Disney World Resort, the hotel offers 2,267 guest rooms and more than 329,000 sf of meeting space. Features consist of 84 meeting rooms, including two executive boardrooms, four ballroom options, 110,500 sf of contiguous convention/exhibit space, outdoor function areas, two business centers and complimentary transportation throughout the Walt Disney World Resort.
