What Hotel Is Currently Offering This Type of Accommodation?
As we speak, one Swedish hotel has embraced getting bitten by the gaming bug: Quality Hotel Globe. This popular hotel in the capital of Sweden is the first ever gaming hotel, with at least five rooms outfitted to give guests the complete gaming experience.

Quality Hotel Globe's gaming room setup is individualized, with gaming units present in the rooms. Guests can book these rooms and be amazed at the all-around gaming vibe and amenities the room has. Complete with all the usual amenities in a typical room, Quality Hotel Globe's gaming rooms have game-themed art and ambient lighting.

Review of ggCircuit's work with Telia
ggCircuit and Telia began a partnership in 2020 when Telia was looking for a way to engage sponsored communities with esports during the pandemic. Second, Telia released its esports gaming center service near the end of 2021. This service was to help anyone quickly build an esports gaming center backed by ggCircuit software and technologies.
With the addition of hotel esports gaming in the UK, with Telia, we hope to bring a new niche to the amenities of a hotel with gaming.
Summary
Hotel gaming is the next frontier of esports and gaming tourism, with more hotels adding gaming to their list of amenities — but we're just getting warmed up. With the gaming room service still in its infancy, Telia and Nordic Choice will have much room to improve. It'll only be a matter of time before hotels host high-profile esports events like the Telia Esports Series.
If you're looking to position your hotel as the next gaming destination for vacationers, don't delay. Check out Telia's Game Room Service and put your hotel on the gaming map for thousands of gamers to see!
