Apple has announced that AirPlay is now available at around 60 hotels operated by IHG Hotels & Resorts in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, including select select Holiday Inn, Kimpton, Hotel Indigo, Candlewood Suites, Staybridge Suites, Atwell Suites, InterContinental, Crowne Plaza, and Avid locations, and a few others.
Where available, the feature allows you to scan a unique QR code on a hotel room's TV to establish an AirPlay connection, allowing you to wirelessly stream content from your iPhone or iPad to the TV. For example, you could stream content from Apple TV+ or Netflix, listen to music on Apple Music or Spotify, play games on Apple Arcade, perform an Apple Fitness+ workout, and more on your hotel room's TV. After the pairing process, your device will also automatically be connected to the hotel's Wi-Fi network.
You'll need an iPhone or iPad updated to iOS 17.3 or iPadOS 17.3 or later to use the feature, which is available at these locations so far:
