Huawei and Meliá Hotels International have launched the Global Smart Hotel Showcase at Torre Melina Gran Meliá focusing on innovation in smart network connectivity and infrastructure during the Mobile World Conference (MWC) Barcelona 2025.
This showcase fosters innovations in smart hotel network connectivity and infrastructure, accelerating digital intelligent transformation across the global hospitality industry to enhance guest experiences and operational efficiency.
As Al and Internet of Things reshape the hospitality sector, hotels prioritize intelligent services, guest-centric experiences, sustainable operations, and efficient Operations and Maintenance.
The joint showcase was launched by Mr David Shi, Vice President of Huawei's ICT Marketing & Solution Sales Department; Mr Tomeu Fiol, Global Hotel Technology Director of Meliá Hotels International and Chao Liu, CEO of Huawei's Manufacturing and Large Enterprises BU.
Others are Vincent Liu, President of Huawei's Global Enterprise Network Marketing & Solution Sales Department; Jack He, General Manager of Huawei Spain Enterprise; Ramón Vidal Castro, General Manager of Torre Melina Gran Meliá; Diego Du, Huawei Spain Barcelona Department.
As such, ICT infrastructure is transitioning from a supporting tool to the core driver of industry-wide innovation. Smart check-in systems, cloud-based management platforms, and Al-driven personalized services streamline operations while advancing sustainability goals.
Huawei's Smart Hotel Solution keeps up with this momentum through cutting-edge hotel network connectivity and infrastructure.
The resulting benefits for hotels include more comfortable personalized guest services, higher operational efficiency, and lower energy consumption.
Mr David Shi, Vice President of Huawei's ICT Marketing & Solution Sales Department, said," Huawei and Torre Melina Gran Meliá Hotel continuously collaborate to further optimize operations and enhance the guest experience."
He said they had leveraged Huawei's Smart Hotel Solution with innovative Internet Protocol (IP) + Port of Loading (POL) IP+POL architecture to build all-scenario smart hotel systems over a high-speed, smart, and eco-friendly network for better guest experience and higher operational efficiency.
"Today, we launched the showcase, which sets a benchmark and example for hotel digital transformation in Europe and even globally," he added
Mr Fiol said," Meliá Hotels International is dedicated to offering guests the ideal blend of modern design and exceptional comfort while redefining their experience through digital innovation.
He said the Huawei Smart Hotel Solution being used at the Torre Melia Gran Meliá Hotel enhanced their ability to deliver seamless, intelligent services with greater efficiency while ensuring high-speed, stable, and reliable network coverage throughout our properties.
He said Huawei's Smart Hotel Solution combined the advantages of IP and (POL) technologies, bringing three unique highlights.
He said these wireless access points with built-in smart antennas enable seamless Wi-Fi coverage in all indoor and outdoor hotel areas, ensuring always-smooth roaming and ultra-high-speed network experience.
Mr Fiol said optical fibers replaced traditional Ethernet cables, allowed each room to relate to a single fiber and terminal. This energy-saving and future-proof practice facilitates sustainable development.
He also said Huawei Master-NCE, powered by Al models, delivers automated root cause analysis and other innovations.
He said from hotel solution design to system integration and delivery, every step required close collaboration with partners.
Huawei's Smart Hotel Solution is tailored to partners pursuing easy integration, deployment, and maintenance.
Huawei is committed to building a strong ecosystem with global partners to drive business success for hotels and their clients.
In the future, Meliá Hotels International and Huawei will continue collaborating at Torre Melina Hotel to further optimize operations and enhance the guest experience, driving the adoption of intelligent and sustainable solutions across the industry.
