Le Royal Monceau and Ruckus team up to elevate connectivity

The world-famous hotel elevates Wi-Fi user experience

One of Accor’s leading hotels, Le Royal Monceau Raffles Paris, has successfully completed the upgrade of its Wi-Fi network in time for guests visiting the French capital this summer.

With the help of CommScope’s Ruckus Networks, the exclusive hotel has deployed more than 330 Ruckus access points (APs) within its 149 guest rooms and suites and back of house, three high-density public area APs in its Katara Cinema, six outdoor APs and two Ruckus SmartZone Wi-Fi Controllers. 

The deployment will elevate the guest experience through enhanced connectivity speeds, low latency, improved security and increased reliability and capacity. 

Guests will benefit from robust, reliable Wi-Fi that supports high-density environments, ideal for streaming or video calling, as well as other bandwidth-intensive applications. 

In addition, the Ruckus SmartZone controller will simplify network management, providing the hotel's IT team with advanced solutions to optimise performance and address any issues. 

"I am thrilled to announce our recent upgrade to Ruckus Wi-Fi technology, supported by a dedicated 4Gb fibre connection exclusively for our guests,” said Hedi Elkilani, IT Director of Le Royal Monceau - Raffles Paris. 

“When traveling far and wide, guests expect a premium experience, including a fast, easy and uninterrupted Wi-Fi connection,” added Bart Giordano, SVP & President, Networking, Intelligent Cellular and Security Solutions, CommScope. 

“Our deployment with Le Royal Monceau is a great example of how RUCKUS Networks’ Wi-Fi technology and expertise in network infrastructure offers real value to premium hospitality venues and guests, delivering the caliber of stay that today’s hotel guests expect.” 

The deployment of RUCKUS Wi-Fi solution throughout Le Royal Monceau concluded in July 2024, facilitating uninterrupted access to these connectivity benefits to guests checking in during the heightened summer travel months.
