Summary: HCN and Artography bring 200,000+ artworks to in-room tablets, letting guests browse and buy art for delivery. A smart revenue play for hotels.

## Article

**HCN** (Hotel Communication Network) has teamed up with **Artography** to turn in-room tablets into full-blown art galleries. The integration gives guests at four- and five-star hotels in the US and Canada access to a library of **over 200,000 licensed artworks**. They can browse, zoom in, and buy any piece straight from the tablet, with home delivery included.

This is not just a nice amenity. For hoteliers, it’s a direct revenue opportunity with zero inventory risk. The art is digital, the sale is handled by Artography, and the hotel takes a cut. My take: this is the kind of non-intrusive upsell that actually improves the guest experience. No pushy sales, just discovery. And for a guest who loves the hotel’s aesthetic, buying the artwork on the wall is a natural impulse.

If you’re running a **boutique or luxury property**, this is worth a look. [Read the full announcement](https://www.hospitalitynet.org/news/4133673/hcn-and-artography-transforming-hotel-guestrooms-into-interactive-art-galleries) on HospitalityNet.
