Hospitality

In hospitality and event environments, sound shapes how people experience a space. Whether in hotel lounges, conference suites, meeting rooms, or event venues, clear communication is essential to comfort, engagement, and satisfaction.

When acoustics are poor, conversations become difficult, presentations lose impact, and guests leave feeling frustrated rather than impressed.

At Symphony Sound, we help hospitality and venue providers create environments where sound supports service, professionalism, and positive experiences.

Hotels, venues, and conference spaces are designed to be vibrant and welcoming. However, high ceilings, open layouts, hard finishes, and busy footfall often create challenging listening conditions.

Common issues include:

• Excessive background noise in restaurants and lounges
• Poor speech clarity in conference and meeting rooms
• Difficulties during presentations and events
• Reduced engagement from delegates and guests
• Barriers for attendees with hearing loss or sensory needs

When guests struggle to hear, the quality of the experience is compromised.

We take a tailored, commercial-aware approach to acoustic support, recognising the importance of aesthetics, flexibility, and operational efficiency.

Our support may include:

• Acoustic assessment of hospitality and event spaces
• Solutions to improve speech clarity and manage noise levels
• Assistive listening and sound reinforcement systems
• Support for AV and presentation environments
• Practical guidance for staff and event teams

Our solutions are designed to enhance performance without disrupting the character of your space.

Clear, comfortable listening environments play a major role in how guests and delegates judge a venue.

Improving acoustics can help to:

• Enhance guest comfort and enjoyment
• Improve presentation and event delivery
• Reduce complaints related to noise
• Encourage repeat bookings and positive reviews
• Support premium service standards

Good acoustics contribute directly to brand perception and commercial success.

Hospitality and event venues serve diverse audiences. Creating inclusive environments is both a social responsibility and a business advantage.

Addressing acoustics helps to:

• Support guests with hearing loss or sensory sensitivities
• Improve accessibility and participation
• Reduce reliance on individual coping strategies
• Demonstrate commitment to inclusive service

Inclusive sound environments ensure everyone can engage fully.

With hybrid working now standard in many organisations, meeting room acoustics and audio quality are more important than ever.

We help organisations ensure that:

• Remote participants can hear clearly
• In-room voices are evenly distributed
• Meetings remain inclusive and balanced
• Technology performs as intended

This supports fair participation regardless of location.

Many venues already invest in audio-visual systems and interior design. Poor acoustics can undermine these investments.

We work alongside your existing infrastructure to ensure:

• Technology performs as intended
• Sound is evenly distributed
• Noise is effectively managed
• Spaces remain flexible and functional

Our approach maximises return on existing assets.
