# Six hotels in Rossio: one standard for network and managed IT

At a glance For decision-makers short on time.

- 01 Six hotels in Rossio and Restauradores handed their entire IT infrastructure to DataRoad.
- 02 Guest Wi-Fi isolated from PMS, POS, cameras and administration.
- 03 Alert monitoring and an IT Unlimited contract: faults handled before reception notices.
- 04 One technical standard across all six hotels: fast swaps and an engineer on site in minutes.

### In this article

In a hotel, a Wi-Fi failure costs a public review and a stalled PMS costs a queue at reception. Six hotels between Restauradores and Rossio have eliminated that risk: they handed **DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting** their entire **network infrastructure and managed IT for hospitality**, from the rack to Microsoft 365, with alert monitoring and an IT Unlimited contract.

*This article describes a real project. To learn about the service, see [managed IT for hotels: network, guest Wi-Fi, CCTV and PMS](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/hotel-wifi-and-it-services/).*

## Who are the six hotels and what did they entrust to us?

Ouro Rossio Hotel, LX Arch Rossio Hotel, BeHotel, Nicola Rossio Hotel, BePoet Hotel and Rossio Plaza Hotel. All of them welcome international guests all year round. All are within a five-minute walk of each other, in one of Lisbon's most sought-after areas.

| Item | Answer |
| --- | --- |
| Sector | Urban hospitality, high occupancy in every season |
| Scope | Cabling, switching, guest Wi-Fi, firewall, video surveillance, connectivity, PMS, Microsoft 365, alerting |
| Model | Turnkey delivery followed by ongoing service under contract |
| Standard | One architecture, one console, one technical team |

## What does a network designed like an office's cost a hotel?

It costs reputation. Guests judge a hotel by its Wi-Fi before they judge the bed, and they do not ask for help: they complain online. In an office, users and laptops are known. In a hotel, they change every day.

- **Capacity** Each room can add three to four active devices at once. We size for simultaneous devices, not square metres.
- **Isolation** A guest's phone never sees the laptop in the room next door. It is a mistake we often find in hotels set up by people who do not know hospitality.
- **Heritage** Old buildings, some listed, with half-metre walls and limits on building work. Coverage is measured inside the building, room by room.

## How did six separate projects become a single managed estate?

Each hotel arrived in its own time, with its own specification. From the second property onwards, DataRoad stopped delivering isolated networks. It began operating an **estate of managed business networks** under a single set of rules.

For management, the gain is predictability. A configuration validated at one property is replicated at the others. A problem solved once stays solved for all.

## What runs, layer by layer, in each property?

The scope is the same across all six, adjusted to the floor plan and number of rooms.

- **Physical layer** Rack, vertical fibre, switches and outlets right into the room. Without good cabling, no equipment can save the network. Learn more about [network infrastructure and structured cabling](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/structured-cabling-installation/).
- **Guest Wi-Fi** Rooms, corridors, reception, restaurant, terraces and service areas, on a network with no contact whatsoever with PMS, POS, cameras or administration. Details in [business wireless networks for hospitality](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/hotel-wifi-networks-lisbon-holiday-rentals/).
- **Firewall** A VLAN per function, policies per network, filtering and logging. Guests, staff, PMS, CCTV and building automation share the building without crossing paths. See [cybersecurity and managed firewalls](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/managed-firewall-services-portugal/).
- **Internet** Circuits sized to real occupancy, with routing that keeps check-in running if a line goes down.

## Can cameras share the network without being exposed?

Yes, as long as they live on their own logical network. In all six hotels, video surveillance uses the same physical cabling, avoiding a second installation, and remains invisible to anyone joining the guest Wi-Fi.

- **Capture** IP cameras at entrances, reception, access points, technical rooms and common areas.
- **Retention** A local recorder with disk capacity calculated for the agreed period.
- **Audit** Per-user access, with a log of every review.
- **Compliance** Signage and image-handling rules under the GDPR.

CCTV without segmentation combines two risks: intrusion and fines. See our [business CCTV isolated from the guest network](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/managed-cctv-business-portugal/) service.

## What happens if the PMS fails?

The hotel stops invoicing, allocating rooms and checking guests in. That is why the property management system has a dedicated network and traffic priority, and is checked first in any intervention. DataRoad installs it, connects it and maintains reception workstations, back office and integrations.

**Microsoft 365** covers reservations, management, files shared between shifts and the constant arrival and departure of staff. A forgotten account belonging to someone who has left is an attacker's favourite door. Discover our [Microsoft 365 administration for businesses](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/microsoft-365-management/).

## Who spots the problem first: reception or DataRoad?

DataRoad, in the vast majority of cases. All six properties are on [IT Unlimited](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/managed-it-services/): managed IT services for a fixed fee, with no hours counted and response times written into the contract.

Switches, firewalls, access points, recorders and lines are under NOC oversight and continuous monitoring. The alert reaches the technical team as soon as an indicator moves out of range. At three in the morning, with a receptionist on their own, this decides whether there is an internal log entry or a critical review on Booking.

## What is the advantage of six clients in one block?

- **Immediate presence** If someone needs to be on site, the engineer arrives in minutes and travel no longer weighs on resolution time.
- **Identical documentation** The same equipment family and the same configuration logic; any team member can walk into any hotel and find their way.
- **Fast swaps** A faulty access point or switch is replaced with an equivalent already tested, without waiting for orders.
- **Continuous improvement** Every lesson learnt in an old Rossio building feeds into the design of the next project.

This is what DataRoad sells to hospitality: full responsibility for the infrastructure, so management can focus on guests, not cables.

## Where can you read each case in detail?
