La Mon signals new conference and events strength after £2m investment

Rainbow Communications adds a new superfast oomph at La Mon Hotel & Country Club

La Mon Hotel & Country Club has completed a £2 million multiphase investment across all its banqueting, conference and events facilities with a major telecommunications and unlimited superfast fibre broadband upgrade.

The award-winning four-star hotel, conference venue and Country Club already boasts one of the largest Conferencing and Events Suites in Northern Ireland and this latest investment brings a new, premium and unlimited digital provision to ensure all its visitors, delegates and hotel guests are best connected.

The work was undertaken by Northern Ireland’s largest independent telecoms provider, Rainbow Communications.

La Mon Hotel & Country Club Managing Director, Geoffrey Weir, said the latest investment complemented a wider transformation which has propelled demand in all areas.

“Located only 15 minutes from Belfast, La Mon is a compelling visitor destination which boasts four-star facilities in a unique and beautiful environment.

“With a significant business, events and banqueting provision that accommodates thousands of guests every year, digital connectivity is vital for our success.

“Having worked closely and collaboratively with Rainbow over the past decade, we’re delighted with the technology solutions they’ve brought and with the transformation which this investment has achieved.”

The popular business and leisure destination, which features 120 bedrooms and suites, an award-winning Country Club, restaurant, bistro and lounge, employs almost 190 staff.

Stuart Carson, Sales and Marketing Director, Rainbow Communications, said:

“La Mon Hotel and Country Club is an outstanding venue with a new, best-in-class technology provision which will underpin its continued attractiveness and appeal for local, national and international conferences, events and banquets.

“We are delighted to have been appointed to design and install a range of wireless technology solutions which means guests can confidently connect, communicate and present across a range of platforms in traditional or new, interactive ways. Our work complements and completes a stellar refurbishment programme which already makes La Mon an unrivalled destination for everyone to enjoy.”

As part of the technology upgrade, the venue now also benefits from a hosted phone system, dedicated leased line and a new, expanded network of Wi-Fi points to ensure consistent reliable connectivity.”
