Welcome to the Experience Lounge

Treat your guests to an unforgettable good time

Today's guests are wired for new levels of connected experiences-to their technology, and to the people around them. By providing spaces where guests can gather and play video games, listen to music, watch movies, or work in a social setting, you provide the stimulation they crave and help create exciting interactive experiences that will bring them back again and again.

Turn an underutilized space on your property into a profit-generating social hub with minimal investment.

Microsoft and its partners can help you create a unique experience lounge to:

  • Enhance guest experiences. Invite guests to kick back in your lounge to shift gears, connect with others, and experience the latest in entertainment.

  • Open new revenue streams. By keeping guests on-site, you create additional opportunities to generate revenue through food and beverage sales while guests enjoy the lounge.

  • Differentiate your brand. Give your guests a chance to create lasting memories and build long-term affinity for your brand.
