Sharing these insightful thoughts about narrative hotels and the challenges to stand out from nowadays homogenization and mass produced boutique & lifestyle hotels. Some highlights : - Hoteliers who wants to differentiate themselves need to line up with firms that recognize a broader strategy than following trends dictated by social media algorithms - Vibewashing is real, the line between narrative and gimmick can be thin (Soho House Portland example) - A well told story helps standing out but developing them is a complicated process, not everyone want to invest in - Starting a project with a narrative help driving the guest experience by an ethos and lead the team to create the stage for the concept - Narrative hotels make travel more interesting through intellectual heft and engagement with local traditions https://lnkd.in/eaNBt9MD

I moved continents 4 times in the first 20 years of my life. And whilst being the ‘new kid’ every few years wasn’t easy. In hindsight, it gave me a masterclass in the hospitality industry. I learnt: - How to speak to all types of people - How to adapt to & respect different cultures - How to create a sense of home wherever I go But also, everywhere we went… I became more aware of the impact that hospitality can have. We’re often the first impression new visitors have of a country. And that’s a huge responsibility. One I don’t underestimate. At Rainier Hotels & Hospitality, we don’t “just” manage hotels. We curate experiences. We celebrate global perspectives. We create a welcoming environment for all. My diverse upbringing reminds me that at its core… Hospitality is about making people feel at home. No matter where they come from. How has your background influenced your professional perspective? #Hospitality #Hoteliers #HotelManagement

When people feel heard, they feel seen, meaning they feel understood and when they feel both seen and heard, they feel like they matter, like they belong. Your team is your single most valuable asset. Your hospitality concept may be the most unique, your accommodations may be luxurious and elegant, but if your team isn’t feeling hospitable, everything else falls flat.   Numerous outstanding books delve into the realms of culture and best practices for hospitality. While undoubtedly valuable, a significant portion of these reads are not relatable for your team.

True Hospitality consists of giving the best of yourself to your guests. Hospitality means primarily the creation of free space where the stranger can enter and become a friend instead of an enemy . Hospitality is not to change the people , but to offer them space where change can take place .

Hospitality is a journey of shared experiences. It's about creating a space where people feel connected, valued, and inspired. It's the art of weaving together the threads of guest expectations and team capabilities to create unforgettable moments. I believe in the power of human connection to transform ordinary experiences into extraordinary ones. We truly make a difference in these shared moments of laughter, empathy, and mutual respect. Hospitality is more than just a service; it's a philosophy of care that extends to every interaction. Every guest brings a unique story, and every team member contributes a unique perspective. Together, we create a symphony of hospitality that resonates long after the stay. Being part of this industry is a privilege, where every day offers new opportunities to make a positive impact. The potential for growth, creativity, and learning in our industry is boundless, keeping us excited and motivated.
