I voted no. I have been to a hotel yet that has a solid connection. The best I've had is about 2Mbps down, not solid. The wifi hotspot on 4g is better. They want me off their wifi? step it up a few notches.
Some I've been at were so bad I could barely check my email..
Hotel WiFi is bad because they don't place enough AP's and they are usually too oversubscribed plus in non-ideal locations like this:
Plus expect any type of streaming (youtube,netflix, etc) to be throttled.
However; this is not about room wifi and the like, it's about there conference areas.
Most people don't know, but typically hotel's give you the space free. It's the food, internet, room setup, etc that all nickle and dime you. A 1.54Mbps connection for a room is roughly $1500-2000 usually and also usually the highest part of the room.
We have been able to negotiate this down to about $100 per seat for higher level bandwidth which we typically need because we do labs during many of our events.
We have tried bringing our own WiFi only to discover it doesn't work and being network engineers finding out why it isn't.
