High-speed link offers hotel guests complete connectivity


Complete Telecom in four-year deal with Carton House

Complete Telecom, the managed network and telecoms services provider, has delivered what it describes as an ultra high-speed internet network to Carton House in Maynooth.

This deal makes the hotel and leisure destination the first in all Ireland to have 100MB internet connectivity (with the ability to offer up to 1GB). The contract is worth €200k over four years. The luxurious hotel, built in 1739 by the 19th Earl of Kildare, checks in over 450,000 business and leisure guests yearly. The new IP infrastructure, part of a multi-million investment by Carton House, is aimed at attracting prestigious business events.

The high-speed uncontended broadband network has been set up throughout the 1,100 acre estate, giving guests access to a full range of business and entertainment digital services direct from their rooms. Carton House GM David Webster described the new service as "a significant milestone."

Complete Telecom's Neil Wisdom, sales and marketing director, noted that his firm had also delivered high-speed internet connectivity to Tallaght Stadium in time for July's friendly match between Shamrock Rovers and Real Madrid.
