The Roam and Move can be, but you need to have set them up first. Possibly others with line-in, if you’ve set autoplay.

So

 

using my

library,  no problem.

 

youd have to understand networking to get them working,  but what are you going to listen to ?

If it’s a Roam or Move: anything via Bluetooth.

Hi @Regitze22, for your consideration: purchase a Wi-Fi travel router like this one …

… and configure it with the exact same SSID and password as your home Wi-Fi. Like magic, your phone and laptop and (wait for it) Sonos speaker will connect and work.

In addition to getting all of your devices connected, a travel router provides better security than sitting directly on the hotel Wi-Fi.
