• DYK - The first Hotel Television Systems were installed in the early 1950s by hotel magnate, Conrad Hilton, in the Waldorf Astoria, the Plaza, and Roosevelt Hotel.
Why Master Video?
Did You Know; The first Hotel Television Systems were installed in the 1950s in fine New York hotels owned by Conrad Hilton, including The Waldorf Astoria, The Plaza, and The Roosevelt Hotel, where Hilton called the Presidential Suite, "Home", in the “Grand Dame of Madison Avenue.” Master Video was there in the beginning at the Waldorf-Astoria, to install, service, and support the new "Hotelevision," nearly 70 years ago!
Installing televisions in hotel guestrooms was an incredible industry first, quickly replacing hotel radios to the delight of hotel guests, who could now watch local New York TV station's early over-air broadcasted programs for an extra $3 a day; the birth of "Paid TV."
By the 1980s, Master Video moved its corporate headquarters to Dallas Texas, to become one of the top systems integration companies in the nation. Today, Master Video is a leading systems integration company specializing in Hospitality and Healthcare markets, Corporate and Commercial Facilities, and Education and Government sectors, with nearly 70 years of hand’s-on experience.
