I bring my PlayStation 4 for gaming, Plex, and Netflix when I'm on a long term engagement. Either lock it in a bag and check with the bell desk at the hotel, or leave at client site.

When travelling lighter, I just bring my Nintendo Switch and hook my laptop or mobile phone up to the hotel TV for streaming.

FAM 1: not really. Suspect that most hotel Wi-Fi wouldn't be conducive to a good online play experience. You'd probably want to get a travel router that can pipe traffic over a VPN to a provider that can do port forwarding.

I bring a fire tv stick but it doesn’t work everywhere.

I have the Apple Lightning to HDMI adapter, which is incredibly expensive ($50) for what it is, but it lets me play content from my iPad or iPhone on hotel TVs. Usually. I also carry a lightweight Monoprice HDMI cable.

EY1 I used to do that with my iPad and a retractable HDMI but now use the fire stick. Self contained and I can still do other stuff on my iPad. I use the fire stick to connect to my Plex server at home

Accenture laptops have HDMI out so just bring a HDMI to HDMI cord. Also have a Switch for video games if I want to play one.

P1 do you play your PS4 online?

The firestck works well with WiFi you need to sign into with

Newer TVs in hotel room has Netflix. Just sign in using your account and enjoy. Don’t forget to sign out before you checkout through. That’s what I did, last week, finished strangers things 2 in two nights!
