Choose Your Room at Hilton Homewood

We're pretty used to selecting our own seat on an aircraft, especially if we check in online. So being able to select our own hotel room from a birds-eye-view layout seems like a logical next step, and something we think could be really cool.

Hilton's brand of extended-stay accommodation, Hilton Homewood, claims to have premiered the Suite Selection system. You can check in online and see a floor plan of the hotel, including an indication of the rooms available to you. The map also shows the amenities of the hotel like the pool or the elevators, as well as shops and streets surrounding the hotel. You can click on your room of choice and have it guaranteed for when you show up in person.

So what are the advantages of being able to choose your own room? According to Hilton, choosing an east or west facing room depending upon the guest's preference for being woken up by streaming sunshine or not is one of the reasons they've implemented this system. Or of course if you prefer to be near the elevator, or want a room near the pool. Kind of nice to know they care.
