Home / Commercial / Hospitality
Ambiant designs and installs display systems, background audio, and event AV for hotels, bars, and function venues across New Zealand. We provide hospitality audio visual solutions that run reliably in always-on environments, seamlessly integrated, professionally configured, and supported by Netcare IT expertise since 1999.
In hospitality, AV technology is never just background, it’s part of the guest experience. A lobby screen that’s showing an error message, a bar with music that cuts in and out, or a function room where the PA fails during a wedding speech, these aren’t just technical problems. They’re moments that define your venue’s reputation.
Ambiant installs hospitality AV that’s commercial-grade, aesthetically integrated, and backed by fast local support. Systems that run reliably, look the part, and can be managed by your team without calling a technician for every minor adjustment.
We install digital welcome screens, guest information displays, and ambient video walls that create a premium first impression. Updated remotely with current promotions, local information, and hotel branding.
We design and install background music systems, sports and entertainment screens, and feature video walls for bars and lounges. Professionally zoned audio that sets the right energy for every hour of the day.
We supply and install flexible AV systems for function rooms and event spaces, including PA systems, large-format displays, wireless microphones, and stage lighting control for weddings, conferences, and private events.
We provide commercial-grade screens for gyms, pools, spa waiting areas, and guest lounges, running curated content appropriate for each space, all day, every day.
We build hotel meeting rooms and conference suites with professional video conferencing, presentation AV, and room control, certified for Teams, Zoom, and Google Meet.
We integrate Q-SYS and centralised control systems that let your team manage the entire venue’s AV from a single point. Audio zones, display content, and event presets your staff can operate without technical knowledge.
| Venue Type | Primary AV Needs | Key Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Hotels (boutique) | Lobby displays, bar/lounge audio, meeting room AV, guest area screens | Aesthetic integration — hardware must complement interior design; no visible cable runs |
| Hotels (large / chain) | Multi-zone audio, lobby video walls, conference suites, guest floor signage | Centralised management — one system across many zones and floors |
| Bars & pubs | Background music, entertainment screens, outdoor audio, gaming area AV | Licensing — background music requires licensed audio solution; Ambiant can advise |
| Function & wedding venues | PA and microphone systems, projectors, dance floor audio, video playback | Flexibility — systems must adapt for different event types without full reconfiguration |
| Cafes & casual dining | Background music, digital menu boards, feature display | Simplicity — staff must be able to operate everything without technical training |
| Clubs & entertainment venues | High-output audio, feature video walls, lighting integration, DJ input | Power and reliability — high-demand environments need commercial-grade hardware throughout |
