PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Comcast, a global media and technology company, today announced Comcast Business Hospitality, a new product suite consisting of Ethernet, Internet, video and voice services packaged in one integrated offering customized for the hospitality industry. Available across its entire service area, Comcast's new product suite enables hotels and motels to leverage advanced technology from a single provider to improve the guest experience, streamline back-office operations and reduce costs.

As the line between business and pleasure continues to blur for many travelers, seamless connectivity and high-speed Internet access are in high demand.

"The needs of today's modern traveler are changing, and high-performance connectivity is now just as important as price, location and loyalty programs when selecting a hotel," said Alexandra Sewell, senior director of Hospitality Services and Cross-Segment Verticals, Comcast Business Services. "Hospitality decision makers must adapt to support this trend, and Comcast Business Hospitality offers them an easy way to do so by packaging scalable, cutting-edge technology with a fast and reliable network – without complicating back-end operations.
