Royalton to offer iPads in all guest rooms

The latest hotel to jump on the iPad craze is straight out of NYC and prepping its iPads for Fashion Week. The Royalton, a member of the Morgans Hotel Group, will launch a new virtual concierge program via iPads, which will be available in all guest rooms at the hotel.

These iPads will host content from “The List” destination guide, curated by the Morgans Hotel’s concierge teams in collaboration with UrbanDaddy, and also give customers access to playlists created by the hotel, content relating to Fashion Week, the Armory Show and other current, New York events. Mobile applications and services will also be included.

Like the other hotels that offer iPads, we love the hotel-specific angles that are available on the iPads and the Royalton didn’t disappoint: guests will be able to browse and order room-service, communicate with the concierge for tickets to events, check flight details or arrange a car service.

The iPads will be in rooms in time for New York Fashion Week in September, with exclusive features that will appeal to Royalton’s fashion savvy clientele.
