Case Study- Parc Astérix, Paris
SOLiD & Hub One
SOLiD has partnered with Hub One to deploy an advanced mobile connectivity solution across the hotels of Parc Astérix®, one of Europe’s most popular theme parks.
Enhancing Indoor Mobile Connectivity in Parc Astérix® Hotels: A Strategic Collaboration Between SOLiD and Hub One
SOLiD, a global leader in cellular coverage and public safety solutions, and Hub One, a digital technology operator for businesses, have deployed an advanced mobile connectivity solution in the hotels of Parc Astérix®—one of the most visited theme parks in France and Europe, with nearly 3 million visitors in 2024. The project aims to provide optimal 3G, 4G, and 5G coverage in the park’s three flagship hotels: Les Trois Hiboux, Le Quai de Lutèce, and La Cité Suspendue.
A Strategic Focus on Customer Experience
In today’s digital age, reliable mobile connectivity is a basic expectation for visitors—especially in high-traffic locations like Parc Astérix®. A high-performing network enables guests to share experiences in real-time, access digital services, and plan their stay efficiently.
Aware of these stakes, Parc Astérix® committed to improving network coverage within its themed hotels, where dense building materials and immersive architecture could obstruct mobile signal propagation. Ensuring seamless connectivity in guest rooms and shared spaces (lobbies, restaurants, leisure areas) was essential to delivering a high-quality service to visitors.
A Technological Solution Tailored to the Site’s Challenges
To meet these needs, SOLiD and Hub One implemented a
Distributed Antenna System (DAS)—a technology that amplifies and evenly distributes mobile signals throughout complex infrastructures. The solution delivers strong connectivity across all four major French mobile operators, ensuring uniform coverage regardless of a guest’s provider.

The DAS deployment included:
Installing over 100 strategically placed antennas to maximise coverage and eliminate dead zones.
Adjusting equipment power: high-power antennas in large, high-traffic areas and lower-power antennas in more confined spaces.
Custom design that factored in the hotels’ architectural specifics to ensure optimal signal distribution.
Thanks to this advanced infrastructure, guests now benefit from fast, stable connections that allow them to browse the web, share content, use online park services, and access entertainment platforms without disruption.
An Enhanced Visitor Experience
This mobile connectivity solution significantly enhances the guest experience at Parc Astérix®. With seamless 4G and 5G access, guests can:
● Check real-time attraction wait times, helping them optimise their route through the park.
● Enjoy uninterrupted streaming, ensuring maximum relaxation in their rooms.
● Make high-quality video calls to stay connected with loved ones.
● Use digital hotel services (mobile check-in, restaurant bookings, on-demand entertainment), contributing to a smoother and more immersive stay.
A Partnership Driving Innovation
This project showcases the ability of SOLiD and Hub One to meet growing mobile connectivity demands in complex, high-density environments. By delivering optimal network coverage to visitors, the initiative supports Parc Astérix®’s broader goals of innovation and continuous service improvement.
Through this collaboration, SOLiD and Hub One reaffirm their commitment to providing cutting-edge technology solutions, ensuring reliable, high-performance connectivity for large-scale enterprises and public venues.
